Natural tone cleaning is almost never just cleaning, there is certainly often more restoration needed. Natural stone floor restoration can take many forms. All stone and tile floors suffer from surface damage and general wear issues. In most cases, dirt, spots and foot traffic scratches affect floor's finish, hence the importance of stone restoration. Highly polished Stone and granite floors show up wear and tear fairly quickly, as small foot traffic scratching on the surface alter the gloss and capture dirt. Foot traffic damage gradually has an effect on porous natural stone including Terracotta Travertine, Sandstone & Limestone, which are usually protected with a film-forming surface sealer.
Virtually all natural stone flooring have grout lines. Being slightly recessed, that means the grout captures more grime compared to the stone itself. Many floors also frequently need to have crack, chip or hole repair.
Etching and scratches may be removed by resurfacing. Natural stone can be ground to reveal a brand new stone surface.
