At kōva clean, you’ll hear us talk a lot about being “surface safe.” It’s not just a buzzword or a nice to have, it’s the foundation of everything we do.
But what does surface safe actually mean? And why should you care when choosing a cleaning service? Let’s break it down.

Surface Safe Is About More Than Gentle Products
Most people assume surface safe cleaning just means using natural or eco friendly sprays. And while that’s part of it, true surface care goes much deeper.
Different surfaces have different needs:
Marble and natural stone are highly porous and can be permanently etched by acidic cleaners.
Timber floors swell and warp with too much water.
Microcement and lime plaster can lose their beautiful finish with harsh chemicals or even the wrong cloth.
Surface safe means understanding those differences and cleaning in a way that protects them for the long term, it’s about preserving the integrity and beauty of your home.
Why It Matters More Than You Think
The wrong product or technique may not show damage immediately. But over time?
Your stone benchtops lose their polish.
Your timber floors develop dull patches.
Your beautiful tapware corrodes or discolours.
A quick clean today shouldn’t mean costly repairs or replacements tomorrow.
That’s why at kōva clean, we use:
→ pH-neutral, surface-specific products
→ Soft microfibre cloths and non abrasive tools
→ Top to bottom cleaning methods to avoid recontamination
We clean with intention, not assumption.
