Slate Maintenance

Ongoing Slate Maintenance Can Keep Your Surface in Top Shape

Slate requires less maintenance than most other natural stone but it does require some maintenance. At home, you can simple sweep it and keep it free from penetrating liquids such as oil, as well as anything acidic.

Regular Cleaning Can Keep Your Slate in Great Shape

Not all slate surfaces need regular cleaning but some do. If your slate is a high-traffic area then you may wish to invest in ongoing cleaning services. If your slate has become infested with mold, mildew, or algae in the past, then ongoing cleaning may be a great option, along with the addition of products that can fight these infestations.

Sealing Keeps Slate Cleaner and Easier to Clean

Another potential aspect of slate maintenance is applying a sealant. Doing so actually reduces the size of the slate’s pores. This helps in two ways. First, the smaller pores are less likely to attract dust and dirt. Second, smaller pores make the surface easier to clean. Not to mention the fact that sealed slate looks better than unsealed slate.
