Limestone is a top choice of premium flooring due to its smart finish and because it can endure high foot traffic. Limestone needs to be professionally sealed and maintained to make sure it doesn’t eventually become damaged.
Restoring, cleaning, and polishing of limestone floor needs to be completed by a trained professional. The team at TileMaster Belfast are specialists who have the knowledge, experience and top-of-the-range equipment needed to get the best results. Our team will remove dirt from the floor, polish out scratches and other marks, reapply protective sealant and the floor will shine once more. Once the clean is finished your limestone floor will look freshly laid and you will find it’s much easier to keep both the tiles and grouting clean.
How to tell if your limestone flooring needs restoring or cleaning
The manufacturers of limestone suggest that you sweep and dust every week to maintain it. To make the floor last longer you should book a professional clean and polish regularly. Commercial limestone floors need deep cleaning more often than the floors found in homes due to the higher levels of foot traffic.
Even though limestone is durable, it can become damaged. There are many things to look out for when checking the floor and considering when to book a professional clean or restoration. The TileMaster Belfast team can help you spot problems with the limestone and offer solutions to fix them. Some of these issues are:
- Does your limestone look faded?
- Has the limestone lost its sheen?
- Have you noticed colourless spots on the floor?
- Are there uneven tiles or sharp edges due to a poorly fitted floor?
- Is the grouting tired, worn and faded?
- Have you noticed that the limestone looks better wet?
- Are your floors dirty from building work?
- Have you found stubborn marks and scuffs that can’t be removed?
- Do you miss the good-as-new finish?
