All-natural marble is one of the most durable building materials on earth. No wonder marble installed thousands of years ago in ancient temples, monuments, and public buildings is still standing proudly.

But like all materials, marble requires some care and maintenance. And the more use it gets, the more cleaning, care, and maintenance it requires. Marble floors, wall-coverings, and countertops that experience a lot of physical touching need the most regular help.

Caring for Marble

What happens if you don’t take care of your marble surfaces? In the short run, probably nothing. Marble is strong enough to stand up to a lot of pounding and heavy use for weeks, months, or even years at a time. But sooner or later, even marble will start to break down. And when it does, it may be too late the care for it properly.

Marble is a type of rock. So it is strong. But it will still eventually wear down, crack, fissure, chip, or even split in half. At Love Marble, we can do a lot to repair marble. But we can’t perform miracles.

A better plan is to provide your marble with the care and maintenance it requires according to a regular schedule. That way, you don’t have to worry about replacing expensive marble pieces that have completely failed after years of inattention.

Respect the Rock

Marble is one of the most attractive and glamorous building materials known to man. No wonder it is used in the most exclusive homes, the top businesses, and the most respected public buildings. But marble will only perform to the level that you care for it.

If you choose to ignore marble and take it for granted, you may be okay in the short run. But like anything else, inattention and neglect eventually will create poor results. Instead, take steps to care for your marble. Like letting Love Marble perform the maintenance, cleaning, and repair your marble needs.
