Considerations for Using Buffalo Walling Stone

While Buffalo Granite offers many benefits, there are a few factors to keep in mind:

• Cost: Buffalo Granite, as a natural stone, can be more expensive than some synthetic countertop materials. However, its longevity and timeless appeal provide excellent long-term value.
• Sealing: Like most granite, Buffalo Granite requires periodic sealing to maintain its optimal stain resistance. This is a simple DIY process or can be done professionally.
• Pattern Variation: Natural stone slabs will have variations in pattern and colour. It’s helpful to view slabs in person before the final selection to ensure they suit your aesthetic vision.
• Weight: Buffalo Granite is heavy. Ensure your cabinetry and subfloor can support the weight, especially for large countertop installations.
• Professional Installation: Professional installation is highly recommended due to the weight and precision needed for cutting and fitting.

Care and Maintenance

Buffalo Granite is remarkably low-maintenance, ensuring lasting beauty with minimal effort. Here’s how to keep your surfaces looking their best:

• Everyday Cleaning: Wipe up spills promptly and use a mild dish soap with warm water for routine cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach or ammonia.
• Drying: Dry surfaces with a soft cloth after cleaning to prevent water spots.
• Protection: Use coasters under glasses, especially those containing acidic liquids (citrus, wine). Place hot pans on trivets or heat pads.
• Sealing: Periodically reseal your granite following the sealant manufacturer’s instructions. A simple water drop test helps determine when it’s time to reseal.
• Addressing Stains: Create a paste of baking soda and water for stubborn stains. Apply for several minutes, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
