I received a call from a homeowner in Greensboro who wanted her stone countertops looking their absolute best before hosting Thanksgiving. She told me the granite in her kitchen and the vanity top in her bathroom had lost their shine over the years.

This week, I completed a granite countertop cleaning and sealing project for a homeowner in Greensboro, NC. Their kitchen counters had lost some of their shine over the years and showed dull areas where the old sealer had worn off. My goal was to clean, polish, and seal the granite to bring back the deep, natural color and clarity that makes stone surfaces stand out.

When we got to the house, we took a close look at the vanity. The granite itself was still in good shape, no chips, no major etching, but it was showing signs of long-term buildup and some worn-in stains from products sitting on the counter for years.
