Stone flooring looks wonderful in any home setting. When it comes to challenges, children may rank as one of the highest for stone floors. Toys running across the surface, being dragged or liquid spills will really test even the hardest of surfaces. Rest assured, though, that stone tiles are one of the hardest wearing floor types available.
Stone Flooring; Scratches and Scuffs
It is never pleasant to discover a scratch or scuff on your stone floor. Scratches, once seen are very difficult to ignore. Imperfections, generally are quite visible on tiles. Don’t worry. It is almost impossible to have a tiled floor that will not see a scratch or two.
Children need to be children and accidents will happen. Scratches and scuffs do often get worse. Therefore, it is important to seek the support of a stone restoration specialist before it deteriorates.
Stone Flooring; Staining or Marks
If a tile’s surface coating is worn then staining and marks are more likely. Children are constantly spilling drinks and dropping food. Acids and oils can be really problematic for unprotected stone.
It is important that any liquid spills are blotted as soon as they are found. The longer the liquid is left on the surface, the more likely the stain will be lasting.
Some of our clients recently commented:
“Mark did an excellent job bringing our marble floor back as good as new. He was very professional and trustworthy and we would definitely recommend him.”
“Mark was prompt in arriving to the property and complete a survey of the works. Works were completed to a high standard with the house left in a spotless condition. I highly recommend his services to all.”
