This year I will be recommending that my buyers perform a new test during their home inspection. While I recently visited the new condo of some of my buyers in the South Loop, they shared with me that they discovered after they moved in that their granite countertops weren’t properly sealed. Their kitchen countertops were absorbing food stains. Granite is a porous material and the pores need to be kept sealed to prevent it from absorbing stains.
My buyers did some research and discovered The Water Drop Test for checking if granite is sealed. It’s easy and only takes a few minutes. I will be recommending it from now on to all of my buyers. My South Loop buyers also found granite care products at MBStone.com that they like very much. Thank you, Kathy & Lynn, for this helpful information!
