Stone Tile Cleaning & Restoration Arkley

The original polish on a Limestone floor will bit by bit loose its gloss. Scratches and etching add up and damage the initial polish. Ultimately, the tiles will have to be polished. We use industrial diamond polishing machines to bring back the gloss.

If your floor happens to be laid with uneven tiles, this might be referred to as lippage. We can grind off the irregular tile edges, making the tile surface level. That is a complicated process but the results are dazzling. The floor will appear like a single slab of stone.

After grinding, the grout sits will sit at the same level as the Limestone tiles. Mopping a ground and polished Limestone floor is like cleaning a single bit of glass. Also, soil doesn't get stuck within the grout lines. Limestone restoration generally features a few chip and crack repairs, using resin fillers. The type of restoration needed should be determined by the current condition of your floor.

Natural stone floors have problems with foot traffic wear and damage, because individuals wander on them. Traffic damage, spillages and surface problems happens on many stone floors, wrecking the surface, making the stone appear lifeless and unappealing, consequently the significance of stone restoration. Polished Stone tiles and granite floors show wear and tear fairly quickly, as minute traffic scratches on the stone finish change the luster and hold dirt.
