Quartz surfaces, like quartz countertops, offer a blend of durability and aesthetics, making them a popular choice for kitchens and bathrooms. Proper care and maintenance can help preserve their beauty and functionality for years to come. Daily cleaning with a soft cloth or sponge and mild soap is essential to remove surface dirt and spills. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry to prevent water spots. It's crucial to avoid harsh cleaners, bleach, or acidic substances, as they can damage the surface. For tough stains, a non-abrasive household cleaner and a non-scratch scrubbing pad can be used. Protect the surface from extreme heat by using trivets or hot pads, and prevent scratches by using cutting boards instead of cutting directly on the surface. While quartz is resistant to staining and does not require sealing like natural stones, it's still essential to maintain regular cleaning to prevent the buildup of dirt and grime. Additionally, minimizing direct sunlight exposure can help prevent discoloration over time. With these simple care practices, quartz surfaces can retain their elegance and functionality for years to come
