Stone Tile Cleaning & Restoration Anniesland

Limestone eventually looses its original polish. Scratches and etching pile-up and remove the initial surface. The best way to revive the original finish is by polishing the tiles. We use diamonds to get rid of the damage and bring back the original gloss.

Almost all Limestone surfaces are uneven because the Limestone tiles are not installed level. The only way to make a Limestone floor flat is by grinding away the lippage and uneven edges of the tiles. Grinding Limestone floor tiles should be undertaken by experts. The Limestone floor will have a monolithic appearance as just one slab of Limestone.

Following grinding, the Limestone tiles will sit at the same level the grout lines. Mopping a ground and polished Limestone floor is much like cleaning just one piece of glass. Also, soil does not get stuck within the grout lines. If your Limestone floor has cracks or chips, we are able to repair the damage with resin fillers, colour matched to the Limestone. We will recommend the correct restoration process.
