Marble countertops need routine TLC to increase their lifespan. That means sealing them once installed to prevent any stains from settling. Sealing needs to be done at least annually, though some recommend doing so every six months if your kitchen gets frequent use.

You can remove stains with a mixture of ammonia and hydrogen peroxide or refinish the countertops. Marble will also require constant cleaning and periodic polishing.

It's best to avoid any acids on marble countertops because acid can dull the shine of marble. Marble is also susceptible to chipping, so beware of knocking things, like a belt buckle or other heavy objects, across it.
