3. Cutting-Edge Equipment for Gentle Surface Treatment

Our advanced cleaning equipment, which includes industrial diamond tools, low-moisture scrubbers, and dust-free grinders, may sound intimidating, yet they are actually much gentler on your stone surfaces than conventional supermarket mops. The result? A radiant, long-lasting shine and a surface that becomes significantly easier to maintain over time.

The unique porous nature of travertine requires specific filling techniques, while the delicate sheen of marble calls for a specialized polish that differs from that of durable porcelain.

Common Stone and Tile Issues We Expertly Address and Resolve

Marble: Restore That Brilliant Mirror-Like Finish

Heavy foot traffic can leave micro-scratches that dull the natural shine of marble. Our diamond grinding technique effectively eliminates lippage, levels grout, and polishes the surface to reflect light beautifully, reviving its original brilliance and allure.

Travertine: Remove Grimy Pits and Holes

Travertine is infamous for its tiny pits that trap dirt and grime. We conduct an extensive deep-cleaning, replace any missing fillers, and seal the surface with a breathable protector that maintains its warm, honey hues while efficiently keeping dirt at bay.

Limestone: Transform Etched Surfaces into Elegant Finishes

Spills from wine or citrus juices can lead to unsightly acid etching on limestone. We expertly hone away these blemishes, smooth out uneven edges, and finish with your choice of a soft sheen or silky matte to restore its classic beauty and charm.

Terrazzo: Resilient Yet Gorgeous

While terrazzo is renowned for its durability, it can lose its shine under the weight of groceries and high heels. Our multi-step polishing process revitalizes the surface and applies a protective stain-guard sealer, ensuring that spills can be easily wiped away without leaving lasting damage.

Sandstone: Comprehensive Cleaning for Hidden Areas

Using rotary brushes, we effectively remove dirt from within the grains of sandstone, while pressure washing eliminates any leftover debris. A UV-stable sealant locks out future dirt while allowing the stone to breathe naturally and maintain its integrity.

Slate: Achieve Striking Beauty Without Dust

The natural grooves of slate can accumulate dust over time. We carefully strip away old coatings, scrub the textured surfaces, and finish with an enhancer that beautifully highlights the color variations and elevates its natural beauty.

Terracotta: Rustic Charm with Reliable Protection

Unglazed terracotta tends to absorb oil quickly. We thoroughly strip, neutralize, and dry the surface before applying a durable, natural-looking seal to protect its rustic beauty and integrity for years to come.

Victorian & Edwardian Tiles: Preserving Heritage with Expertise

Old wax, paint spots, and remnants of carpet glue can cling stubbornly to these historic tiles. After an exhaustive cleaning process, we apply a color-enhancing impregnator and finish with a micro-wax to achieve a refined, low sheen that respects their historical significance.

Quarry Tiles: Revitalizing Kitchen Classics

Robust red quarry tiles might seem hopelessly dirty, but beneath the grime lies their intrinsic beauty. Our alkaline degreasers, hot rinses, and breathable sealers work together to reveal the rich terracotta tones that define these classic tiles.

Porcelain: Stain-Resistant but Not Impervious

Affordable porcelain can trap dirt within its microscopic pores, leading to a dull surface appearance. We utilize specialized pads to dislodge the gray haze and apply a nano-sealer to prevent future staining, ensuring your tiles maintain their pristine appearance.

Ceramic & Grout: Quick Fixes for Everyday Shine

Glazed ceramic tiles are generally easy to clean, but grout lines often darken first, detracting from the overall appearance. We employ steam cleaning to refresh the grout, apply a clear stain-blocker, and rejuvenate your kitchen to its former glory, making it inviting and attractive.

The Restoration Process—An Insight into Our Detailed Approach

1. Thorough Inspection & Testing
   We meticulously apply various solutions to inconspicuous areas of your floor, monitoring their reactions to ensure no surprises arise during the restoration process, leading to optimal outcomes.

2. Grinding & Honing Techniques
   Think of this process as exfoliation for stone surfaces. Coarse diamond tools flatten any lippage, finer grits eliminate scratches, and ultra-fine pads create a luxuriously smooth finish that enhances the stone’s natural beauty.

3. Precision Polishing or Sealing
   Hard stones such as marble, granite, and terrazzo can be polished to achieve a natural gloss, while softer or textured stones like travertine and slate maintain a matte finish but gain protection through high-quality sealers, ensuring lasting beauty.

4. Attention to Detail for Impeccable Results
   For cracks and chips, we utilize color-matched resin fillers on-site. Missing grout is seamlessly integrated with new lines to match the original shade. We ensure edges are expertly buffed, skirting boards are wiped clean, and furniture is carefully repositioned to enhance the overall aesthetic.

5. Comprehensive After-Care Kit Provided
   You will receive a bottle of pH-neutral cleaner, a microfiber pad, and quick care tips: avoid bleach or vinegar, and instead, take a moment to admire your beautifully restored floors, ensuring they remain in pristine condition.

Frequently Asked Questions: Gaining Insight into Our Expert Services

Q: How long will my space be unavailable during the cleaning process?
Most kitchens and hallways can be ready for light foot traffic within four hours, and you can wear shoes the following morning. Larger areas or significant grinding may require an additional day for completion.

Q: Is the cleaning process dusty?
Our state-of-the-art machinery utilizes continuous water feed and vacuum extraction, significantly reducing dust levels compared to traditional DIY sanding projects, ensuring a cleaner and healthier environment.

Q: Can you repair deep chips or cracks in the stone?
Absolutely. We expertly color-match resin fillers on-site, and after the polishing process, the repairs become virtually invisible unless you know exactly where to look, restoring the surface to its original beauty.

Q: How frequently should sealing or polishing be repeated?
High-traffic commercial floors may require annual touch-ups, while residential areas typically maintain their shine for three to five years before needing a brief maintenance visit to ensure longevity.

Q: Will I need to move furniture before your arrival?
It’s helpful if you can move small items like rugs, chairs, and potted plants beforehand. We are more than happy to carefully slide larger pieces and place felt pads under their legs before returning them to their original spots, ensuring a hassle-free experience.

Every stone tells a story, with each mark and layer of grime narrating a rich history.
