Stone Tile Cleaning & Restoration Elmstead

Limestone ultimately looses the initial appearance. Surface scratches and spill damage add up and remove the original shine. Before long, your Limestone will have to be re-polished. We use diamond polishing equipment to reinstate the initial finish.

If your floor happens to be installed leaving jagged tiles, that is described as “lippage”. The only way to make a Limestone floor smooth is by grinding off the lippage and irregular tile edges. Limestone floor grinding is an expert procedure, giving brilliant results. The Limestone floor looks "monolithic", appearing to be made from a single slab of Limestone.

After grinding, the Limestone and the grout are at the exact same level. Cleaning a ground, honed and polished Limestone floor is like cleaning a single slab of glass. A smooth surface Limestone floor won't have grout lines to capture dirt. If your Limestone floor has chips or cracks, we are able to repair them with resin fillers, colour matched to the Limestone. Once we assess your floor, we will suggest on the optimum Limestone restoration process.

Slate is an extremely popular floor and wall tile due to its low porosity and the numerous varieties and textures of Slate available. Cleft slate can get an accumulation of dirt and sealer residues in the crevices this is certainly hard to get rid of.

We use industrial-grade sealer removal treatments and rotary scrubbing devices to remove the layers of old sealer. After the professional cleaning is completed, use specialist sealers that will last for decades not months.

If you've got the right slate, it may be ground smooth, which makes it much easier to clean.

Minton geometric tiles are laid in Victorian and Edwardian Hallways.

Victorian tiles are made of natural clay with a natural non-shiny finish.

Along with the changes in residential decor, many of these floors have carpet underlay, lino, bitumen and additional adhesive residues.

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

After cleaning an impregnating sealer is put on to boost the colours and protect the floor. Topical sealers and waxes can give the floor a sheen or glossy finish.

Porcelain is actually a ceramic mix with additional sand and feldspar added to produce a more compact tile.

Porcelain is very resistant to moisture, therefore spillages should not seep into the tile and lead to stains.

There are substandard porcelains that may absorb soil and spills just like natural stone floors. It can be difficult to remove this soil.

We are able to get rid of ingrained soil using equipment built to go into the microscopic pits holding the soil.

After cleaning, we use specific Porcelain sealers to avoid this problem.

Solid color Porcelain can be ground and restored like Granite or Stone.

There in many cases are aspects of natural stone restoration in natural stone tile cleaning. Restoring stone and tile commonly involves several stages. All stone and tile floors suffer with wear and surface damage. In many cases, dirt, spots and foot traffic scratches ruin the floor finish, hence the significance of stone restoration. Highly polished floors like granite, Stone and terrazzo show wear more rapidly while the high shine gets dull from traffic marks. Traffic damage eventually has an effect on porous natural stone which include Terracotta, Limestone, Travertine and Sandstone, which are most often coated with a film-forming surface sealer.

Virtually all stone floors have grout lines. Dirty grout is a common problem to be dealt with on natural stone and tile floors. Many natural stone floors also generally need to have crack, chip or hole repair.

We use grinding and honing to take away stone finish damage as a result of acid etching and scratches.Natural stone has got the advantage that a soiled, porous surface can be taken away, revealing a beautiful new surface.
