Cleaning and Restoring Stone Floors. Sidmouth
Natural stone cleaning regularly will involve additional restoration services. Every type of natural stone possesses its own advantages and restoration difficulties. At the least, all stone floors suffer some form of basic deterioration. The most common issue we encounter during stone restoration is greasy dirt trodden to the surface generating a dull, dreadful finish. Highly polished floors like granite, marble and terrazzo reveal wear more quickly once the lustre gets dull from foot traffic marks. A surface sealer does not avoid porous natural stone and tiles like Limestone, Sandstone and Terracotta gradually struggling with wear and spill problems.
Grout is frequently probably the most vulnerable section of a tile installation. Cementatious grout is softer than natural stone stone and tile and more vulnerable to abrasive and chemical based damage. Cracks, chips and hole repairs are often a part of the restoration work.
We take away etching and scratches by grinding and honing. Natural stone can be ground to show a fresh stone finish.
Polishing Stone Floors
With time your floor will appear unexciting and loose its appeal and gloss. This dullness is due to minute scratches on the stone where it was stepped on. Stone polishing will be the best way to recover the initial sparkle.
We use the highest standard diamond natural stone polishing machinery to revive the shine on Granite, Terrazzo, Polished Limestone and Polished Travertine stone floors. The finish on Sandstone, Slate, Honed Travertine, Clay & Honed Limestone tiles is created using a high gloss sealer. The old, dull sealer is removed and a fresh gloss film-forming sealer is used to create the high shine.
