There are few materials as beautiful as white marble – it bears a unique character and has a very rich history in the decoration of the kitchen and the bathroom. But the question that immediately comes to mind about the white kitchen counter marble concerns its maintenance because it is a fragile material and difficult to maintain.

Since marble is a natural product, it will evolve and change naturally over time and it is this fact that will help you decide whether or not you want a kitchen with marble worktops.

If the marks of time on your white kitchen counter are not really a problem for you, then marble is the perfect choice. Marble is a calcium-rich, porous stone, has a relatively low absorption resistance and is susceptible to expansion and contraction. The water left on the surface of the marble countertop will then quickly seep into its pores and that is why it is very important to avoid spills as much as possible and clean them as quickly as possible. Stains left on the surface of the marble play on the composition of the stone and can only be removed by professional polishing.

Regarding the finish of the marble countertop, you have the choice between polishing and lapping. Polishing creates a smooth surface that reflects the light, while honing on the contrary, gives a matte appearance to the surface. It may be best to grind white marble surfaces as polishing creates a luster that makes it easier to see any changes and defects caused by acids. So, a beautiful matte white surface is perhaps the best option for the worktop in a kitchen.

Some people believe that the white color of the work surface makes it easier to see if the surface is clean, which is by no means true. The darker the surface, the easier it is to see possible tasks including fingerprints. In case you do not want your kitchen counter to change over the years and if you do not have the time to maintain it properly, then you should definitely look for alternatives to white marble.

But if you are determined to opt for white marble, then it is very important to always seal the countertop before using it. Sealing products are numerous and you must choose the best for you. To reduce the appearance of engravings, opt for lapping as a finish. Also, to reduce the appearance of stains, always clean up spills very quickly as greasy and colored liquids can quickly penetrate the surface of the marble. And finally, do not forget to use a neutral, non-abrasive cleaning product to maintain the clean surface. The white marble countertops are very beautiful and eternal but it is important to take good care of them.
