When businesses list their assets, they typically don't put flooring at the top of the list. Or even in the Top 10. Yet marble flooring in corporate centers, retail stores, and other business locations is a valuable asset that adds luxury and dignity to any property. Marble flooring can easily lose its value as a company asset if it is improperly cleaned, maintained, or left ignored altogether. In high-traffic areas like building lobbies or public spaces, daily cleaning is recommended. Pr...

Marble is one of the most luxurious surface materials for homes, businesses, and installations. But it requires special handling, especially during installation. When you use marble for your countertop, wall covering, flooring, or other surfaces, it requires more reinforcement than materials like wood, Formica, laminate, or even granite. That's because as a dense stone, it weighs more. And that additional weight may be too much for standard bracing found in cabinets, floors, and other are...

Marble counters, floors, and other features that are worn, damaged, or aged are less attractive than newly installed marble. But replacing marble can often be prohibitively expensive.

But the marble care experts at Love Marble have the experience, knowledge, and equipment to give you an honest, straightforward answer. Money, Time, ...

One question marble owners often ask the experts at Love Marble is, "Do I need to get marble sealing for the marble surfaces in my home or business?" The answer depends on a number of different factors, including where the marble is located, how it is used, and what risk factors there are for staining.
