Care & Maintenance

Daily Maintenance

• Wipe spills immediately—marble is porous and can stain
• Use only pH-neutral cleaners specifically designed for marble
• Clean with soft microfiber cloths to avoid scratching
• Dry surfaces completely to prevent water spotting

Monthly Care

Apply a quality marble sealer monthly for the first year, then quarterly thereafter. This protects against staining and etching while maintaining the stone's natural breathability.

Professional Maintenance

Schedule professional honing and polishing annually to maintain the marble's luster and address any minor etching or wear patterns that develop naturally over time.

Regular Cleaning

• Dust with soft, dry cloth weekly
• Clean with barely-damp cloth when needed
• Dry immediately after any moisture contact
• Use furniture polish sparingly—quarterly at most

Oil-Finished Oak

If your cabinetry features natural oil finishes, refresh the oil annually. Apply food-safe mineral oil or specialized wood oil with a soft cloth, allow to penetrate for 15 minutes, then buff excess.

Hardware Care

Clean brass, bronze, and other metal hardware with appropriate metal cleaners. If you prefer natural patina development, simply dust and enjoy the evolving character.

Drawer Systems

• Remove items monthly and wipe drawer interiors
• Check soft-close mechanisms—tighten if needed
• Reorganize as needed to maintain efficiency
• Vacuum drawer tracks to ensure smooth operation

Seasonal Rotation

Every season, reassess your storage. Rotate items based on current cooking patterns. Store rarely-used items in less accessible locations, bringing frequently-used tools to prime positions.

Panel-Front Appliances

Clean custom panels with the same care as your cabinetry. Ensure hinges and seals are functioning properly—misalignment can cause unnecessary wear.

Professional Service

Schedule annual professional servicing for all major appliances. This preventive maintenance extends appliance life and ensures optimal performance.
