There are often aspects of natural stone restoration when undertaking natural stone floor cleaning. Every type of natural stone has its own advantages and restoration challenges. Stone floors have problems with foot traffic wear and damage, because people stroll on them. Foot traffic deterioration, stains and surface damage happens on the majority of stone floors, damaging the appearance, making a stone floor look lifeless and unsightly, hence the significance of stone restoration. Polished Stone and granite floors exhibit wear very easily, as minute foot traffic scratching in the surface alter the gloss and trap soil. Porous stone and tile sealed using a coating sealer will ultimately suffer scratch damage.

The vast majority of natural stone floors have cementatious grout lines. Grimy grout is a very common problem to be dealt with on natural stone and tile floors. Many floors also frequently need crack, chip or hole repair.

We use grinding and honing to take away stone finish damage brought on by etch marks and scratch damage.Natural stone has the advantage that a dirty, permeable finish can be taken off, exposing a lovely new surface.
