Your slate can remain in great shape with regular cleaning
Some slate surfaces do require routine cleaning, however not all do. If your slate is a high-traffic area then you may decide to invest in ongoing cleaning services. Continuous cleaning and the addition of solutions that can combat these infestations may be a fantastic alternative if your slate has previously developed a mold, mildew, or algae infestation.
Slate remains cleaner and simpler to clean with sealing
Applying a sealant is another potential part of slate upkeep. In fact, doing so causes the pores of the slate to get smaller. It benefits in two ways. First off, dirt and dust are less likely to be drawn into the tiny pores. Second, the surface is simpler to clean when the pores are smaller. Not to mention that sealed slate appears superior to unsealed slate in terms of aesthetics.
