Marble Is Beautiful, and Honest About Wear
People love the look of marble and worry about stains. The honest answer: acids like lemon juice and vinegar can dull or etch it, according to the Natural Stone Institute.
Some homeowners love the soft patina marble wears over time, and some would rather not see it. Fernando will tell you honestly where marble fits in your Tallahassee home, and where another stone may suit you better.

Is Marble Right for You?
Where It Shines
- Soft, classic veining.
- A natural stone, so every slab is one of a kind.
What to Know
- Acids can dull or etch it. Some spills etch the finish without a stain, and others do both.
- Use mild, non-acidic cleaners.
- Sealing with a quality sealer often makes sense.
Fernando will guide you through choosing and tell you honestly which one fits your home.

Every kitchen is different, so the real number comes from a free estimate. We listen to what you want, then give you an honest price. Our price often comes in under what people expected to spend.
For a rough idea: a Florida pricing guide puts installed granite and quartz at about $65 to $90 a square foot (SlabWise, July 2026).

Questions We Hear
What should I do about a stain on natural stone?
Call us first, so we can tell you what the stone and the stain need. For oil stains, the Natural Stone Institute describes a poultice made with baking soda and water, left to dry for about 24 to 48 hours.
Which countertop stone is the most durable?
It depends on what you mean by durable. For scratches, our own stone comparison sheet rates quartzite the hardest, 7 or more on the Mohs hardness scale, ahead of granite at 6 to 7. Granite has the highest published heat tolerance, about 480 degrees Fahrenheit (Natural Stone Institute). Quartz resists stains best because it is nonporous, but its resin makes it the most sensitive to heat. Marble is the softest and the most sensitive to acid. Our stone guide compares all four.
Will marble stain?
It can. Acids like lemon juice and vinegar can dull or etch marble, and the Natural Stone Institute notes that some spills etch the finish without a stain while others do both.
How do I clean marble?
Use mild, non-acidic cleaners, the Natural Stone Institute says, such as a neutral cleaner, stone soap or mild dish soap with warm water.
