Does your Granite look dull? Does your Granite have water rings? How about water deposits around the faucets? If so, your granite needs to be sealed. Don’t try to seal it yourself, you may cause damage to your stone.
We had granite installed in my home and I was so thrilled to have such a beautiful countertop. When my granite was about 6 or 7 months old I noticed when a glass was placed on the countertop it would leave a ring. I got so nervous that my stone would be ruined. I started calling local granite installing companies to find out how to care for my granite. To my surprise I heard it over and over - you dont have to do anything to it.
We called a friend that installs granite for a living and he showed me how to care for our granite. He informed me that granite should be sealed every 6 months. He said: "Hey you should start a business doing this" and I said: "Hey, I might just do that".
I starting researching and found that there were no other granite maintenance companies in Saint Petersburg, Florida and the rest is history.
In '2001 Seal & Shine, LLC was born. Since that time we have grown and we continue to grow by providing professional granite maintenance services and granite care products.
In '2006 Seal & Shine launched our new website. It is still in the early stage, but we are already seeing a lot of return customers ordering our granite care products and they are asking for referrals to granite maintenance professionals in their area.
