Maintenance: Keeping Your Natural Stone Floors in Top Condition
Natural stone is a beautiful and durable flooring option, but it requires proper care to maintain its luster and longevity. Over time, everyday wear and improper cleaning methods can lead to scratches, dullness, and small pits in the surface. Ensuring your stone floors receive the right maintenance and treatment is essential to preserving their natural elegance.
Each stone type has unique care requirements, and using the wrong cleaning method or product can cause long-term damage. To prevent scratches and buildup, regular sweeping and mopping help remove dirt and debris. It’s also essential to use pH-neutral cleaners, as harsh chemicals can strip the protective layer and weaken the stone. Applying a high-quality sealer every 1-3 years protects against stains and moisture absorption, especially for porous stones like marble, travertine, and limestone.
Homeowners often have a specific look in mind when it comes to stone floor maintenance. Whether you prefer a matte, subtle, or high-gloss finish, professional maintenance can help achieve the desired appearance. Our experts assess the condition of your floors, explain available refinishing options, and provide the best honing, polishing, or sealing solutions based on the stone type. Protective measures, such as using pads under furniture to prevent scratches and wiping up spills immediately, also play a key role in maintaining your stone’s pristine condition.
Every stone maintenance project is unique, and depending on the type of stone and level of refinishing required, the process can take one to two days to complete. During the service, we take great care to move and protect furniture, cabinets, and appliances, ensuring that your home remains clean and undisturbed throughout the process. With the right care and expert maintenance, your natural stone floors will stay stunning and durable for years to come.
