With time, Limestone will become matt and loose its shine. Scratching and stains build and damage the original surface. The only way to restore the initial polish is by polishing the floor. Diamonds are used to remove the dmaage and marks and repair the surface.

If your floor has been installed leaving uneven tiles, that is referred to as lippage. We can grind away the irregular tile edges, making the tile surface level. That is an involved process however the results are beautiful. The Limestone floor will have the look of looking like just one piece of stone.

Following grinding, the grout sits will sit at the same level as the Limestone tiles. After grinding and polishing Limestone maintenance is a piece of cake, as the mop slides on the floor. There are no uneven grout deressions to trap soil. Hole cracks and chip repairs are often part of the Limestone restoration process. The restoration needed will be decided by the current state of the floor.
