With time, Limestone will end up dull and loose its appearance. Scratching and spill damage build up and dull the initial surface. The only way to revive the finish is through polishing the Limestone. We use industrial diamond polishing to re-surface the Limestone floor and repair the original shine.

In the event that tiles are not even, even this disorder is known as "lippage". We can grind off the irregular edges of the tiles, making the floor surface smooth. You require specialized machinery and years of grinding and polishing to successfully grind a Limestone floor, nevertheless the final result is fantastic. The Limestone will get a monolithic appearance as just one piece of stone.

Following grinding, the Limestone will be flush with the grout lines. After grinding and polishing Limestone maintenance is a breeze, because the mop slides over the floor. Also, soil does not get stuck in the grout lines. Chips and cracks can be filled with coloured resin fillers. We will recommend the appropriate restoration service.
