3. Advanced Equipment for Gentle Surface Treatment

Our state-of-the-art equipment, which includes industrial diamond tools, low-moisture scrubbers, and dust-free grinders, may seem intimidating, but they are actually gentler on stone surfaces than traditional supermarket mops.

The unique porous nature of Travertine requires specific filling techniques, while the delicate sheen of marble necessitates a specialized polish that differs from that of resilient porcelain.

Common Stone and Tile Issues We Resolve with Expertise

Marble: Restore That Dazzling Mirror-Like Finish

Heavy foot traffic can lead to micro-scratches that dull the natural elegance of marble. Our diamond grinding technique effectively eliminates lippage, levels grout lines, and polishes the surface to reflect light beautifully, rejuvenating its original radiance and splendor.

Travertine: Eliminate Grimy Pits and Holes

Travertine is notorious for its small pits that trap dirt and grime. We perform a thorough deep-clean, replace any missing fillers, and seal the surface with a breathable protector that retains its warm, honey tones while effectively preventing dirt accumulation.

Limestone: Transform Etched Surfaces into Elegant Finishes

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

Terrazzo: Durable Yet Stunning Surfaces

While terrazzo is known for its durability, it can lose its shine under the pressure 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 causing lasting damage.

Sandstone: In-Depth Cleaning for Hidden Areas

Using rotary brushes, we effectively eliminate dirt from deep within the grains of sandstone, while pressure rinsing removes any remaining debris. A UV-stable sealant locks out future dirt while allowing the stone to breathe naturally, preserving its integrity.

Slate: Achieve Striking Beauty Without Dust

Cleft slate’s natural grooves 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 amplifies its natural beauty.

Terracotta: Rustic Charm with Reliable Protection

Unglazed terracotta tends to absorb oil readily. We meticulously 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 Professional Expertise

Old wax, paint residues, and remnants of carpet glue can cling to these historic tiles. After a thorough cleaning process, we apply a color-boosting impregnator and finish with a micro-wax to achieve a refined, low sheen that honors their historical significance.

Quarry Tiles: Revitalizing Kitchen Classics

Sturdy red quarry tiles may seem hopelessly dirty, but beneath the grime lies their inherent beauty. Our alkaline degreasers, hot rinses, and breathable sealers work in harmony to reveal the rich terracotta tones that characterize these classic tiles.

Porcelain: Stain-Resistant Yet Not Impervious

Affordable porcelain can trap dirt within its microscopic pores, resulting in a dull appearance. We utilize specialized pads to dislodge the grey haze and apply a nano-sealer to prevent future staining and keep your tiles looking immaculate.

Ceramic & Grout: Efficient Solutions for Everyday Shine

Glazed ceramic tiles are easy to clean, yet grout lines often darken first. 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 appealing once again.

Understanding the Restoration Process—An Insight into Our Methods

1. Thorough Inspection & Testing
   We carefully apply various solutions to inconspicuous areas of your flooring, observing their reactions to ensure no surprises arise during the restoration process, leading to optimal results for your surfaces.

2. Grinding & Honing Techniques for Flawless Surfaces
   Consider this process akin to 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 for Lasting Protection
   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-performance sealers, ensuring their lasting beauty.

4. Meticulous Detailing for Impeccable Results
   For cracks and chips, we use color-matched resin fillers on-site. Missing grout is seamlessly blended 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 appearance.

5. Comprehensive After-Care Kit Included
   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 stay in pristine condition.

Your Questions Answered: Gaining Clarity on Our 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 to ensure optimal results.

Q: Is the cleaning process dusty?
Our advanced machines utilize continuous water feed and vacuum extraction, keeping dust levels significantly lower than those encountered in 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 polishing, the repairs become virtually invisible unless you know exactly where to look, restoring the surface to its original elegance.

Q: How frequently should sealing or polishing be repeated?
High-traffic commercial floors may necessitate annual touch-ups, while residential areas typically maintain their luster 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 possesses a story, with each mark and layer of grime narrating a rich history. By removing the dirt, you unveil the cherished narrative of your floor—the dazzling veins, the warm colors, and the reflections that enhance the ambiance of your home.
