Engaging a Stone Restoration Specialist for Antique, Vintage, Worn, or Damaged Stone Surfaces
- Cleaning: Stone surfaces endure a barrage of wear and tear, accumulating unsightly stains, mold, stubborn dirt, soap residue, and more. A stone care specialist can skillfully restore the beauty of most stone types through effective cleaning techniques.
- Honing: Minor imperfections, scratches, and discolorations on stone surfaces can be rectified by honing or gently grinding the top layer of stone with specialized abrasive pads, resulting in a smooth and consistent surface.
- Polishing & Refinishing: Achieving the captivating gloss seen on marble slabs, countertops, and tiles necessitates the adept use of polishing machinery and specialized abrasives. We offer an array of finishes, ranging from glossy and matte to honed, antiqued, leathered, brushed, satin, or natural, tailored to your specific preferences.
- Chip Repair: Countertops often fall victim to chipping along their edges. Our skilled stone professionals can expertly repair most chips, rendering them nearly invisible.
Engaging a Stone Restoration Specialist After New Stone Installation
- Lippage Correction: Lippage occurs when tiles are uneven or fail to lie flat, resulting in discomfort and aesthetic displeasure. Typically stemming from inexperienced installation or an uneven subfloor, this issue can be effectively addressed by grinding down uneven tiles until they are flush and uniform.
- Sealing: While some countertops come pre-sealed, others may require additional safeguarding. The application of an appropriate penetrating sealer serves to fill the stone’s pores, reducing the risk of staining due to improper cleaning or accidental spills.
- Stone Finish Customization: Stone surfaces can be tailored to various finishes, including glossy, matte, honed, antiqued, leathered, brushed, satin, or natural. If your current stone finish doesn’t meet your expectations, we can modify it to align with your preferences.
