Marble has been used as a flooring material for more than 6,000 years and continue to be a popular choice for bringing beauty to entry foyers and other areas of the home. You need only take some simple precautions to protect your investment. Use a non-slip mat outside the entrance to your foyer and a carpet or areas rug inside to capture the abrasive grit and dirt tracked in from outdoors. Dust mop your marble floor frequently to remove dirt and dust particles that can scratch the surface. Use warm water and a small amount of soap or neutral stone cleaner to wash. Then rinse and dry thoroughly. See: Some Tips to Extend Life of Marble.
