Care & Maintenance
๐งผ Care & Maintenance โ Architect Marble
Preserve the Beauty. Enjoy Timeless Design.
Thank you for choosing Architect Marble. Our products are handcrafted from premium natural materials including marble, travertine, wood, metal, and ceramic. With proper care and maintenance, your piece will retain its beauty and performance for many years.
Natural materials evolve over time. Gentle care protects both their function and unique character.
๐ชจ Marble & Travertine Care
Marble and travertine are natural, porous stones formed over thousands of years. Each piece is unique and requires mindful care.
Daily Cleaning
Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp microfiber cloth
Use only pH-neutral stone cleaners
Dry with a clean cloth to prevent water marks
Sealing
We recommend sealing every 6 to 12 months, depending on usage
Always test sealers on a small hidden area first
Professional sealing is advised for heavy-use areas
Avoid
Acidic products: vinegar, lemon, citrus cleaners
Harsh chemicals: bleach, ammonia, bathroom descalers
Abrasive pads, powders, or rough sponges
Dragging sharp or heavy objects across surfaces
Stain Treatment
Oil-based stains: use a baking soda + water poultice
Organic stains: diluted hydrogen peroxide solution
Always rinse well and dry after treatment
๐ Never use acidic cleaners on natural stone. They will permanently etch the surface.
๐ณ Wood Components Care
Our wood elements are finished for durability but remain sensitive to environment.
Routine Care
Dust regularly with a dry microfiber cloth
Clean gently with a slightly damp cloth if needed
Apply a natural wood polish every few months
Protection Tips
Avoid prolonged direct sunlight to prevent fading
Keep away from excessive humidity or heat sources
Always use coasters and pads for wet or hot items
๐ Natural wood may slightly change tone over time. This is part of its character.
๐ช Metal Elements Care
(Brass, Stainless Steel, Bronze, Gold Coated)
Cleaning
Wipe with a soft dry or lightly damp cloth
Dry immediately after cleaning
Use only mild soap if necessary
Avoid
Abrasive pads or metal brushes
Strong chemical cleaners or solvents
Rough polishing compounds
Brass Patina
Solid brass may naturally develop patina over time
To restore shine, use a gentle brass cleaner sparingly
Patina is a natural aging effect, not a defect
๐ Gold or coated finishes should never be polished with abrasive products.
๐งฑ Ceramic & Decorative Accessories
Care
Hand wash with mild soap and lukewarm water
Dry with a soft cloth
Avoid dishwashers and sudden temperature changes
๐ Installation & Usage Guidelines
Proper installation is critical for safety and longevity.
We recommend:
Professional installation for wall-mounted and heavy items
Ensuring level surfaces and strong wall supports
Using high-quality silicone or stone-compatible adhesives
Verifying plumbing alignment before final fixing
๐ Improper installation may cause damage and void support or warranty claims.
