Stone Tile Cleaning & Restoration Ash

Over time, Limestone will end up worn and loose its shine. The dull appearance is brought on by tiny marks on the surface of the Limestone where it was walked over. The best way to revive the original shine is through polishing the tiles. We use diamond polishing to grind, hone and polish the Limestone tiles and repair the initial appearance.

If your floor happens to be put down leaving not level tiles, that is described as lippage. A Limestone tile floor should be leveled by grinding away the lippage and irregular tile edges. Limestone grinding is an expert process, providing outstanding results. The Limestone floor looks monolithic, appearing to be produced from an individual area of Limestone.

After grinding, the grout sits at the same level as the the Limestone. It is much easier to maintain a smooth, sleek floor than an irregular floor. There are no grout channels to hold soil. Limestone floor restoration usually involves a few chip and crack repairs, using resin fillers. Once we assess your Limestone floor, we can recommend he best Limestone restoration processes.

There are often aspects of natural stone restoration when natural stone tile cleaning. Each kind of natural stone features its own advantages and restoration challenges. At least, all stone and tile suffer some type of generic damage. In most cases, dirt, spillages and foot traffic marks affect the floor finish, hence the need for stone restoration. Highly polished Stone and granite floors show wear and tear rapidly, as little foot traffic scuff marks on the stone surface dull the luster and capture dirt. Porous tile and natural stone that is sealed using a surface sealer will steadily suffer from wear damage.
