Facts about Stone Restoration West Yorkshire
The process of stone floor restoration requires skill and experience. Natural stone and manmade tile are complex in their very makeup. It requires vigilance to offer the best possible finish.
The feel of sophistication and class is unavoidable when faced with a large expanse of beautiful stone flooring.
Stone floors provide an attractive, functional and practical flooring solution. There are many factors that deteriorate stone tiles and this is, unfortunately, unavoidable. Years of regular use, spills, scuffs and foot traffic may leave them looking lifeless.
A huge benefit of stone is that it can be skilfully restored; we have developed this magnificent process to be tailored to the different requirements of each type of floor.
The process works effectively to grind away scratches, scuffs, etching and dull spots on the surface of the stone. This abrasive process reveals a new layer that allows a brilliant starting point to polish and finish.
Diamond abrasive pads are used to smooth the surface of the stone. Water is used so it is imperative that all furniture, skirting boards and walls are fully protected. We take great care in this procedure.
Our TOP TIP is to make sure that the correct cleaning products are selected. We make sure that our clients are left with advice on the best-available products for their particular stone type. Acidic solutions can develop staining spots that are clearly visible and cannot be removed.
Did you know…. Harmful chemicals can cause damage, corrosion and discolouration. This offers an insight into the knowledge base required to successfully restore stone tiles.
Make sure you…. Mop up liquid spillages immediately and frequent removal of dirt and particles by sweeping will help your stone floor look better for longer.
Always…. Put an entrance mat at your front and back door to help reduce deteriorating particles from entering your home or business.

Travertine Floor Tiles and Tile and Grout Cleaning Leeds
We were called to have a look at a travertine floor in Leeds.
The grout lines and the tiles were soiled and were not looking their best as you can see from the photos below.
After discussing the customer requirements we offered to carry out a free demonstration around the grout lines so the customer could see how good the tiles could look with the right treatment.
We protected the working area with waxed brown paper.
The travertine floor was cleaned with specialist floor cleaning equipment and then we then filled the holes in the travertine tiles.
The floor was left to dry and it was sealed the following day.
The travertine stone floor was restored to its former glory and after we added the tile and grout sealer, the floor looked a completely different colour after the restoration.
Our customer was kind enough to comment;.
Mark, just a brief note to say my kitchen floor is wonderful I would not have believed how good it would look, I would recommend you and your work to anybody who asks me, and should anybody wish to see my lovely new floor I would be happy for you to show them.
Thank you for a great, tidy, efficient job I could not be more pleased. Thanks
