Stone Self-Maintenance for Commercial Spaces, May 5th, 2010

Commercial spaces (Corporate Environments, Developers, Condominiums, Banks, etc) are a large part of our focus, at Sungloss Marble Restoration Company.  Self-maintenance (or lack therof)  is a running theme we encounter when consulting with our clients.  Building Managers wonder what to do to maintain their Marble, Terrazzo, Slate, or Granite floors.  We try to educate our clients to make sure their property looks as good as it can between professional touch-ups.

Here are some basic maintenance Do’s and Don’t tips for our Commercial stone maintenance customers:

Do:

-keep floors dust and debris free; carpet runners help a lot

-use clean, unbleached soft mops or nylon pads, with neutral rinseless stone soap often

Don’t:

-wax floors

-use bleach, ammonia, or abrasive cleaners
