Stone Tile Cleaning & Restoration St Paul's Cray

In time, Limestone will be dull and loose its shine. Surface scratches and etching add up and damage the original shine. Ultimately, the floor will have to be re-polished. We use diamond polishing to grind and polish the Limestone tiles and rejuvenate the initial shine.

The majority of Limestone floors are not even since the Limestone tiles are not installed level. The only method to make a Limestone tile floor flat is by grinding off the lippage and uneven tile edges. Limestone floor grinding is a specialist procedure, that brings brilliant results. The Limestone looks monolithic, appearing to be made from an individual slab of stone.

Following grinding, the grout sits at the same level as the the Limestone tiles. It is much easier to clean a smooth, sleek floor than an irregular floor. A smooth floor doesn't have grout depessions to hold grime. Chips, cracks and hole repairs in many cases are an element of the Limestone restoration work. After assessing the Limestone floor, we will advise the very best Limestone restoration process.

Slate is a remarkably flexible stone that may be finished using a number of finishes including rough surface, smooth honed or polished appearance. We are mostly called to clean slate when it suffers form layers of old sealer with embedded soil, so that the finish looks dull and dirty.

We use a mix of machine and hand scrubbing to get rid of all traces of existing dirty sealers and clean the tiles. Once our professional cleaning is finished, then use industrial-grade sealers that will last for decades not just months.

If you have an appropriate slate, it could be ground smooth, rendering it better to clean.

Porcelain is a ceramic mix with sand and feldspar included to produce a more compact tile.

High quality Porcelain has very low porosity, this means less stains, less water damage, much less need to be sealed.

There are inferior porcelains that can absorb soil and spills similar to natural stone floors. This soil could be hard to remove.

We are able to remove ingrained soil using equipment designed to enter into the microscopic pits holding the soil.

We will help stop this soil using Porcelain sealers.

If you have a solid colour Porcelain, we can re-surface the tiles by Grinding and re-polishing.

Natural tone cleaning is seldom cleaning alone, there is certainly regularly additional restoration required. Natural stone floor restoration can take many forms. All stone and tile floors suffer with surface damage and general wear challenges. The most typical challenge we run into during stone restoration is fatty dust scuffed in to the surface establishing a lifeless, unpleasant appearance. Highly polished floors like terrazzo, Stone and granite reveal surface damage much faster as the high shine goes dull from traffic scratching. Wear damage sooner or later affects porous stones including Travertine, Terracotta, Sandstone and Limestone, which are usually coated with a film-forming surface sealer.

Most natural stone floors have grout lines. Grout is softer compared to natural stone stone and tile and more vulnerable to abrasive and chemical based wear and tear. Holes can be filled and cracks repaired as part of a restoration.

We take off etching and scratching by grinding and honing.Natural stone has got the advantage that a dirty, permeable finish can be taken away, unveiling an attractive new surface.
