Almost any dull looking stone floor can be brought back to life even 100 year marble can be reground and polished to look like new. In most circumstances floors start to fail because the incorrect cleaning and maintenance procedures have not been followed. Unsightly dirty grout lines can seriously damage the look of a stone floor and is normally the reason for most home owners and business's to call us.
There are many different ways in which stone floors can be brought back to life depending on what stone type; from a simple strip, clean and seal to a full grind and polish.
Badly laid Stone Floors
Badly laid floors (tiles with lips in excess of 2mm +) can easily be rectified with our full grind service where the tiles are ground totally flat so that the grout line can sit flush with the tile. Depending on what type of stone you have the tiles can then be further diamond polished to a very high shine or left to a honed finish (matt/satin). Once all the moisture has dried out from the tile, the tiles are then sealed with a impregnating sealer Natural/Colour enhancing to further protect the tiles from staining. There are many advantages to having your stone floors ground and polished, the main reason is that your ongoing maintenance will be made a lot easier due to the fact that there will be no recess in the grout lines to harbour dirt or bacteria.
