Stone Tile Cleaning & Restoration Tyndrum

The initial shine on a Limestone floor will slowly dull. The damage to the surface is caused by traffic scratches and surface etching Eventually, the floor will have to be polished. We employ specialized equipment and diamond tooling to hone and polish the Limestone.

Almost all Limestone tile surfaces are uneven as the tiles are not installed level. A Limestone tile floor is smoothed by grinding away the lippage and uneven tile edges. You should have specialist machinery and several years of Limestone grinding and polishing to grind, hone and polish a Limestone floor, but the result is fabulous. The Limestone will get a monolithic appearance as a single area of Limestone.

Following grinding, the grout sits will sit at the same level as the Limestone. It is much easier to maintain a smooth, sleek Limestone than a bumpy floor. Also, soil does not get stuck in the grout lines. If your Limestone has cracks or chips, we are able to repair them with resin fillers, closely colour matched to the Limestone. The type of restoration needed is going to be decided by the current state of the floor.

Slate is a remarkably flexible material that can be sealed with a range of finishes including rough surface, smooth honed or polished finish. Cleft slate can get a build-up of dirt and sealer residues inside the crevices this is certainly hard to remove.

We use rotary scrubbing machines and sealer removal treatments clean the slate. When the professional cleaning is finished, use specialist sealers that will last for years not months.

Period Geometric or Encaustic floor tiles are found in Victorian and Edwardian hallways.

The primary features of Victorian tiles are the natural clay colours and a matt finish.

A large number of these floors have been sealed and then covered with carpet or lino.

Old paint spills, polishes, waxes and sealer remains tends to make cleaning these types of floors challenging.

After cleaning an impregnating sealer is used to enhance the colours and protect the tiles. If you like a sheen or gloss finish a topical sealer or wax could be put on.

Porcelain is classified as a ceramic, but made with alternative ingredients to standard ceramic tiles.

Porcelain is extremely resistant to moisture, and so spills should not seep into the tile and cause stains.

Some inferior porcelains have tiny holes which will absorb soil just like natural stone floors. This soil could be tough to remove.

We know how to remove embedded dirt using equipment designed to enter into the microscopic pits holding the soil.

Our Porcelain sealers may help stop further soil problems.

In the event that porcelain is a through-colour, we are able to resurface the porcelain, just like granite or Stone restoration.

Natural tone floor cleaning is almost never just cleaning, there is regularly additional restoration needed. Natural stone floor restoration can take many techniques. At the minimum, all stone and tile bear some kind of generic damage. Traffic wear and tear, spots and surface damage shows up on many stone and tile floors, ruining the surface, making a stone floor appear lifeless and unattractive, hence the necessity for stone restoration. Highly polished floors like granite, Stone and terrazzo show wear a lot quicker while the polish dulls from traffic marks. Porous tile and natural stone that is sealed using a coating sealer will gradually suffer scratch deterioration.

Virtually all stone flooring have cement grout lines. Being a little deep-set, hence the grout traps more soil compared to the stone itself. Many stone floors also often need to have crack, chip or hole repair.

We use grinding and honing to eliminate surface damage due to etching and scratch damage. Natural stone can be ground to show a fresh surface.
