Natural Stone
Natural stone floors provide beauty and elegance to your home or business. But just like your carpet, tile and grout, and hardwood flooring, they need special care. When your marble floors lose their natural luster and shine, rely on the expert technicians at Polished Cleaners to provide optimum natural stone honing, polishing, cleaning, and sealing.
Natural stone floor cleaning requires the use of innovative cleaning and sanitizing processes to avoid damaging the surface with abrasive treatments. We analyze each floor surface before cleaning to understand the type of stone. Each variety of stone receives unique treatment to remove buildup of grime and dissolve difficult stains.

Pre-Inspection
First we will perform a visual inspection of the stone and give you an evaluation of expected results, as well as address any concerns you may have.
Area Preparation
We will prepare the areas surrounding the stone by protecting hardwoods, carpet, and base boards.
Professional Cleaning
The exact cleaning method for natural stone depends on many factors including: composition, maintenance, soiling conditions, and traffic. We use the most advanced cleaning systems in the industry. The floor will be machine or hand scrubbed to agitate and loosen the buildup. Then the hot water extraction system is used to achieve maximum soil removal and best overall cleaning results.
Diamond Grinding
We restore stone that is scuffed or scratched with a specialized rotary machine. Diamond grinding removes just enough stone to get below the etch marks and scratches.
Honing
Stone is then honed using special abrasives and water to achieve a uniform surface sheen. Travertine stone filler that looks dull or dirty becomes bright and clean with our finishing techniques. Polished marble, granite, or limestone can be honed to remove existing surface polish.
Polishing
We then give the stone a high gloss shine as part of the final finishing process. Light etches and scratches can be removed with the polishing process, but diamond grinding, as mentioned above, is needed if the stone surface has deeper etches, scuffs, or scratches.
