Yes, this is normal. Small chips are found in most Granite and Quartz countertops. One of the final steps in the installation process is to fill small chips. Epoxy combined with natural stone is used to fill these chips. If you find a chip after installation is complete, please mark it by placing a small piece of masking tape by the chip and call us to schedule a follow-up.
Blot the spill with a paper towel immediately. Don’t wipe the area because it will spread the spill. Flush the area with mild soap and water then rinse. Dry the area thoroughly with a soft cloth. Repeat as necessary. Your granite surface has been sealed prior to installation but may require additional sealing after install due to the porosity of the stone. Once sealed properly there should be little or no staining. However, if a stain does persist please see the section below regarding stain removal. A honed or brushed surface will stain much faster than a polished surface and must be sealed more frequently.
It is possible that spills left on the surface for an extended period of time could cause some residual staining. These stains usually dissipate over time on their own. If a stain does persist, there is a simple method to remove most stains. Combine a poultice powder with a small amount of mild liquid dish detergent to form a pasty substance. Apply the substance over the stain. Cover the stain with a clear plastic wrap, tightly sealing the edges with tape to lock in the air. After allowing this to sit for a couple of days, the poultice will draw the stain out of the stone surface. Contact us if the stain persists.
