        "text": "Maintenance depends on the material. Granite and marble typically require periodic sealing to protect against stains, usually once every 1-3 years. Quartz is non-porous and does not require sealing, making it low-maintenance. All materials benefit from daily cleaning with mild soap and water, avoiding abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. Wiping up spills promptly is crucial for preventing damage and maintaining appearance.",
