Natural stone sealing and restoration for marble, travertine, limestone and slate, including cleaning, honing, polishing and sealing to renew worn surfaces.
Natural stone is beautiful and living. Acids etch marble, spills seep into travertine and traffic dulls polished floors. The good news is that stone can be cleaned, honed, polished and sealed to look much better. Homeowners in Nashville call us when a foyer floor loses its glow or a shower stone develops stains, and we explain what is possible before we begin.
We identify the stone and its finish, test an inconspicuous area and choose cleaners that suit it. Light etching and dull areas can sometimes be improved by honing or polishing with the right abrasives and compounds, while deep damage may need other repairs. Grout is cleaned or replaced as needed. A penetrating sealer is applied after the surface is clean and dry, and we explain how often it should be renewed. We also share a simple care routine so the stone stays beautiful. Tell us the stone type if you know it, and share what you have used to clean it. Photos of stains and dull spots help. Avoid acidic products until we look at the stone, since they can make etching worse and complicate restoration.
