Tumbled Marble maintenance

Hi Maurizio, I am totally renovating my bathroom and would like to use tumbled marble throughout-floors, shower stall and walls. We also are planning on having a steam shower. People have told me it will require alot of maintenance. If properly installed is this a good choice for the bathroom? I love the look and really want to have it in my new bathroom but I am conflicted about different stories I am hearing. Thank you so much!
 

Dear Kathy:

 

People have told me it will require alot of maintenance

 

Did they tell you why, or did they just open their big mouth without any sensible explanation just to show off how “knowledgeable” they are?

Tumble-finished marble (or any other stone for that matter) is a rugged finish that makes the stone as close to maintenance-free as possible.

Ignore those “gurus” and just go for it!

All you will need is to learn a few basic and simple maintenance guidelines.
