Granite Cleaning, Sealing & Repair – Philadelphia / Delaware Valley
Protect, Restore & Renew Your Granite With Expert Care
Granite is known for its durability and strength — but even the toughest stone needs proper maintenance. Over time, granite can become dull, stained, scratched, or lose its protective seal. At Facility Specialists, we provide professional granite cleaning, repair, polishing, and sealing services throughout the Philadelphia & Delaware Valley area.
From kitchen countertops to commercial lobbies, bathroom vanities, islands, reception desks, and more — we bring back the shine, clarity, and beauty your granite deserves.
Granite Issues We Resolve
Although granite is stronger than marble and limestone, it still experiences wear. We restore all major granite issues, including:
- Dull or hazy surfaces
- Light surface scratches
- Stains from oils, hard water, or spills
- Etch-like marks from harsh cleaners
- Uneven or blotchy shine
- Loose or cracked seams
- Chips around sinks, edges & corners
- Residue buildup from improper cleaners
- Worn or ineffective sealer
If your granite no longer looks as polished or protected as it once did, we can bring it back to life.
Our Granite Restoration & Care Process
- Inspection & Surface Evaluation
We assess the stone’s condition, level of wear, and any structural issues with seams, inserts, or edges.
- Deep Cleaning & Degreasing
We remove buildup, embedded dirt, water marks, and residues using stone-safe cleaners (never harsh chemicals).
- Honing & Polishing (When Needed)
Granite usually requires only light polishing, but we can hone and polish where needed. We restore granite to a consistent, high-quality finish.
- Chip, Crack & Seam Repair
We fix chips and cracks using color-matched materials and reinforce loose seams for a seamless look.
- Sealing for Long-Term Protection
Granite must be properly sealed to resist stains and moisture. We apply a premium penetrating sealer that enhances durability and protects against daily use.
- Final Buffing & Detailing
The surface is buffed to bring back a clean, refreshed, and polished appearance.
Did You Know?
- Granite is strong, but oil stains can penetrate deeply without proper sealing.
- Most granite darkening near sinks is caused by moisture absorption, not damage — and it can be corrected.
- Many common household cleaners slowly dull granite over time.
- Polishing granite does not make it slippery — it simply refines the surface.
- With proper maintenance, granite can last decades without replacement.
