Stone Polishing Solutions

Residential Stone Restoration

Kitchens, bathrooms, floors and outdoor stone in occupied homes. The work happens around you, with the house protected and left clean each day.

Who this is for

  • Homeowners with marble, travertine, limestone or granite that has dulled, etched, scratched or stained.
  • Owners preparing a property for sale, where the floor is the largest single surface a buyer sees.
  • Anyone who has been quoted for replacement and wants to know whether the existing stone can be saved instead.
  • Interior designers and architects specifying a finish on stone that is already installed.

How a job runs

Indicative. The programme for any particular job is set out in writing before work starts.

  1. 01Assessment first — usually from photographs, in person where the stone or the scope needs it.
  2. 02A written scope covering which areas, which stages, and the finish being aimed for.
  3. 03Protection and containment set up before work begins.
  4. 04The stone restored in stages, with the surface checked as it develops rather than only at the end.
  5. 05Site left clean, with aftercare explained for the specific stone and finish.

What changes in this setting

The stages and the machines are the same. How the job is organised is not.

The house stays liveable

Work is staged room by room where possible so that a kitchen or bathroom is not out of use longer than it needs to be. Dust containment and floor protection are set up before any machine is switched on.

Wet work needs managing

Most refinement stages use water. In an occupied home that means containment, extraction and drying are planned in advance rather than improvised, particularly on upper floors and near joinery.

The finish is a decision, not a default

A high-gloss polish shows every subsequent mark; a honed finish hides wear but reflects less light. On a family floor that trade-off matters more than the showroom look, so it gets discussed before work starts.

Discuss a project

Send through the stone, the area and what condition it is in. Most jobs can be assessed from photographs before anyone attends site.
