Marble Vanity FAQs

How to clean marble vanity tops?

Marble vanity tops are easy to keep clean and gleaming with just a little bit of maintenance. The best way to clean a marble bathroom vanity is by getting into the habit of a daily wipe down and ensuring that any spills, especially of cosmetics or other harsh liquids, are cleaned up as soon as possible. When cleaning your vanity, always use a clean, soft cloth such as one made of microfibre. Using a spray bottle, combine some warm water (not hot) and a small amount of stone-friendly detergent. Harsh and acidic cleaning chemicals can cause irreparable damage, so make sure that your chosen soap is safe for marble stone. After spraying lightly and wiping down the marble, use a second clean cloth to dry the area and ensure there is no moisture left on the vanity top surface.

How to remove scratches from a marble vanity top?

The best way to remove scratches from your marble vanity top is to have it treated and resealed by professionals. There is, however, a do-it-yourself solution for those interested. Firstly, make sure the area is cleaned and dirt free. Then sand and ‘roughen’ up the marble surface. Make sure you don’t sand it too hard as this can cause extensive damage. Once done, clean away the dust from the sanding and polish the surface with the scratches using a marble polishing powder, buffing pad and a high speed buffer. Lightly rub some marble-friendly compound onto the area with a clean cloth and then buff the area again.

Marble Stairs FAQ

Using marble stone for stairs is a great choice. Not only is there a wide variety of shades and styles available, but the exquisite beauty of marble stone will add an invaluable sense of elegance and luxury to your home. On a practical level, marble is hardy and durable enough to withstand the high levels of foot traffic a staircase is bound to receive.

Is marble too slippery to walk on?

One consideration to take into account when thinking about using marble stone for stairs is that this material is generally more slippery than carpeted stair treads and some other materials. However, there are a variety of marble stair treads and non-slip coating options to help ensure that your marble stairs are as safe as they are beautiful. Nonetheless, marble stone, with treads or without, are still more than practical for use in staircases.

How much does a marble staircase cost?

The average cost of a staircase is around $4,000 but this can vary wildly and can even be as much as $30,000. The cost of a staircase is based on a number of factors: design, size, level of customisation, material etc.  When it comes to a marble stairs price tag, you’ll need to consider that marble slabs can vary from $40 to $100 per square foot, depending on the particular type of marble, as well as the various installation and labour costs.

Travertine Flooring

If you’re looking for a natural stone with a touch of classic, but you cannot afford something fragile and pricey, then travertine flooring is a great choice for you. Timeless in every sense of the word, this gorgeous type of stone makes a perfect pick for your modern kitchen, bathroom, entryway or foyer.

 

Why Travertine Flooring Is a Great Pick

Travertine is a special type of limestone – it is formed from minerals that get moved by springs above the ground after they dissolve in groundwater. Natural-looking and lavish, travertine flooring can maintain the luxurious appeal of your home for many years to come, and for a very affordable price.

 

The Many Benefits of Travertine Flooring

Travertine is a favourite of many homeowners, and for good reason:

Timeless Beauty

Travertine looks wonderfully weathered. Centuries ago, this elegant stone was used by the Roman architects for classic constructions: monuments, temples, and amphitheatres such as the Colosseum.

Functional Versatility

If you’re using travertine, you don’t have to stop at flooring. Depending on your remodelling project, you can add matching travertine tiles to your shower tray, countertop, sink basin or even wall facade.

Aesthetic Flexibility

With travertine flooring, you have a myriad of options. Though honed travertine is the most popular choice when it comes to floors, polished, brushed, and tumbled travertine are just as good-looking.

Durability at Low Cost

With a hardness rate comparable to marble, travertine is one of the most durable flooring materials. Thanks to its unique ability to weather both heat and cold, it’s also a great choice for outdoor floors.
