Our home surroundings are the first thing people see. For this reason, it is therefore important that all elements are kept clean. Why can this sometimes be a challenge?

Floors outside experience a host of deteriorating factors. Poor drainage, moisture and other elements build up algae and moss on stone surfaces outside. Not only do these look unsightly but they can cause issues during winter months. When the temperatures fall below frozen the green-coloured surface coverings can become very slippery.

For this reason, it is imperative that the stone floors are cleaned on a regular basis. We were asked to deep clean these stone blocks in Leeds. As the first image shows they were very discoloured. In fact, you were unable to see what colour the floor should be, the tiles were so covered.

They may well be one of the most durable flooring types, however, tiles will inevitably deteriorate over time. This deterioration can happen steadily over time or an event can occur that vastly speeds up this process.

Tiles that have lost their shine or finish look lack-lustred. Many people live with unsightly tiles under the assumption they have no alternative, having tried all shop-purchased products.

Replacement of tiles is incredibly expensive and an arduous task. If stone restoration is a viable option, it should be utilised.

Restoring your floor tiles is sure to be the more affordable option. What better argument? There are a range of issues that can be tackled with exceptional finish. These include:

Dirty grout: it is likely that the build-up of dirt occurs in the routine cleaning of the floor. Dirty particles get dragged into the slightly recessed grout lines. It is important to realise that grout forms part of the comprehensive restoration process; tiles and grout are deep cleaned.

Stains: all stone tiles have the ability to be stained. They are sturdy and durable, however, they are not impervious. Specialist product formulations and techniques are vital to lift the stains and to ensure that the floor is protected against further damage.

Stone chips: the same theory applies to stone flooring as with many other materials. A small chip or hole can often be easily repaired, however, if left, over time it could possibly deteriorate further into a problem that is unrepairable.

Deteriorated finish: all types of tiles need to be appropriately sealed. Once this has started to wear away the tile can appear to lose their shine. This is likely to happen at the same time as the colour dulls.

Each of these elements can be reversed and your tiles transformed. Why restore your tiles? Because our professional stone cleaning provision offers an unbeatable solution. Call us on 0845 4599941.

Below are some other benefits that stone flooring offers:

Through the warmer months stone flooring keeps the inside temperature cooler.

Another benefit is the option to have unfloor heating fitted prior to installation. This offers the opportunity of warm stone flooring throughout the colder winter months.

If you are looking for a hygienic flooring option then stone tiles should be high on your list. Carpets and some other floor coverings harbour bacteria, dirt and allergens which can provide problems for allergy suffers.

Stone floors do not absorb such particles in the same way and can be easily cleaned or vacuumed to instantly remove the pollutants.

Another benefit is the value for money that stone floors provides. They will, if looked after correctly, last a lifetime and certainly add value to your property. This shows evidence that it is a cost effective investment for your home or business.
