Do
- Use mats under cutting boards to catch any liquid that may run off, use mats when serving food to catch drips or spills or when making drinks.
- Use trivets under hot pans and pots.
- Use a trivet or platform to store oils or perfume on countertop.
- Using a cutting board when preparing food or drinks
- Use coasters for drinks · Clean up spills right away. Always blot up any liquid then clean the area with Easy Oxy and a soft bristle brush and towel/rag.
- Citrus juices, wine, and many other household items are acidic and may etch and remove the shine on marble, travertine, limestone, or onyx countertops. For polished countertops you can try to remove the etch with MB-11 if the etch is light. Otherwise, the spot must be professionally refinished.
Don’t
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners to clean countertops.
- Avoid using the back side of a sponge. This can scratch the stone.
- Don’t put hot pans, skillets, or trays directly on the stone.
- Don’t use the stone as a cutting board.
- Avoid using acidic cleaners such as vinegar.

TESTIMONIALS AND REVIEWS
Debbi M., Magnolia, TX
We just moved in and Beyond Clean Tile got our tile looking like we were moving into a new house. We added an additional service which involved replacing caulking in shower – again, making it look new. Jim was extremely knowledgeable and presented a zero-pressure quote. Money very well spent.
