Stone Tile Cleaning & Restoration Woodford Wells

Limestone eventually looses the initial polish. The dull appearance is brought on by microscopic marks on the surface of the Limestone where it is often walked over. Before long, the floor will need to be repolished. We use industrial diamond polishing machines to reinstate the original finish.

If your floor happens to be installed leaving uneven tiles, it is known as “lippage”. We can grind off the uneven tile edges, making the tile surface smooth. You must have specialized machinery and years of Limestone grinding and polishing to successfully grind a Limestone floor, however the final results are dazzling. The floor will look like a single area of Limestone.

Following grinding, the Limestone will sit at the same level the grout lines. It is incredibly easier to maintain a smooth, sleek floor than an uneven floor. A smooth surface floor won't have grout depessions to capture grime. Cracks and chips can be filled with colour matched resin repair fillers. We will advise the right restoration process.

Slate flooring is amongst the most well known types of natural stone, as it calls for less routine maintenance and cleaning. We are commonly called to restore slate when it has layers of old coating with embedded dirt, so the finish appears worn and dirty.

We have specialist equipment and chemical treatments to eliminate the soil and old coatings, rejuvenating the original slate finish. Once the professional cleaning is complete , we leave the floor to dry, then put on a long-lasting, easy to clean sealer.

Some slate floors could be ground to a smooth finish.

Many Victorian and Edwardian hallways could have floors produced from Geometric Encaustic tiles.

The tiles have a matt finish and acquire their colour through the clay found in their manufacture.

Due to their age, these floors have had plenty of wear and often have layers of various sealers.

The primary issues with victorian floor tiles is to remove decades of oils, polishes, dirt, waxes and grime without adversely affecting the floor.

After cleaning, the original colours of the floor can look washed out, so we apply a colour intensifying sealer to revive the initial depth of colour. A topical sealer or wax finish can give the floor with a high-sheen finish.

Porcelain is a form of ceramic tile.

Quality Porcelain has very low porosity, this means less stains, less water damage and mold, much less need for sealing.

If Porcelain is not correctly made, the surface can absorb soil similar to natural stone floors. If you've got a substandard Porcelain, the surface soil can be difficult to remove.

We know how to remove ingrained dirt with equipment made to go into the microscopic pits holding the soil.

After your porcelain floor is clean we are able to apply a sealer which protects against everyday soil and spills.

Solid colour Porcelain Tiles can also be ground and polished, similar to Granite or Stone.

Natural tone floor cleaning is rarely just cleaning, there is certainly often additional restoration required. Natural stone restoration involves a range of treatments. All natural stone floors suffer from surface damage and general wear issues. The most frequent challenge we experience during stone restoration is oily dirt scuffed to the floor producing a unexciting, ugly surface. A polished Stone or granite floor shows wear more quickly because traffic abrasion that will begin to scratch he polish and weaken the shine. Permeable tile and natural stone that is sealed using a film-forming surface sealer will progressively become affected by wear damage.

Grout can be the most sensitive part of a floor installation. Cementatious grout is softer than stone and much more vulnerable to abrasion and chemical based deterioration. Cracks, chips and hole repairs will often be part of the restoration work.

Etching and scratches are generally removed by grinding and honing. Natural stone can be ground to show a brand new surface.
