Do I need to reseal my granite? How often? |
| » |
Your countertops were sealed in our shop prior to installation, but depending on the type of granite you chose, an occasional application may be needed. darker colored granite is harder then lighter colors, and as a result, less permeable. Therefore, dark countertops may never need resealing. Lightcolored countertops may require an annual application depending on how quickly absorbed moisture evaporates out. |
