Quick and Easy Tips for Marble and Other Natural Stone Restoration

 

We always want the best things for our homes and workplaces, but selection of the best marble for the floor, bathroom or kitchen often leads us to a state of utter confusion.

Marble, no doubt, is the best option for beautification as it is available in different attractive colors and wears an elegant look. But, it is far more brittle and sensitive towards chemicals compared to granite. It gets stained easily due to use of oil, acids or juices. Therefore, it is advisable not to use marble in bathroom or kitchen. If acid or other beverages are spilled, then such acidic materials should be immediately removed from the stone surface. In case the surface already gets imprinted or stained, polishing needs to be done. However, it definitely gives a feel good effect when marble is used for table tops, floor, shower or the surrounding of fireplaces though marble floor restoration should be done at regular interval.

Natural stone also absorbs unwanted chemicals and so it’s advisable to use a protective sealer which seals the pores and prevents any form of chemical or acid from entering into the inner layers of the stone.

Given below are some useful tips for protecting your marble and other natural stones:
  • Immediately clean any form of spill to prevent damage to the surface.
  • Use coasters under glasses carrying beverages or citric juices.
  • Don’t apply cleaners that contain acid.
  • Don’t use vinegar, ammonia or any kind of bleach. 
  • Dust the marble floor regularly.
  • Don’t put any abrasive product on the stone.
  • Don’t place boiling pot or anything hot directly on the stone surface as it might crack the stone.
Coming to stone benchtops, they should not be used as a work bench. Clean the surface as soon as any mess occurs. If proper care is taken, the benchtops will look bright and beautiful for a life time.

Why Do You Need Professional Stone Restoration?

 
When we decorate our homes and offices with preciously beautiful natural stones such as marble, granite, or even travertine, we tend to obsess over its maintenance, repair and restoration. This is because nobody wants to take risks concerning the protection and maintenance of natural stone, which is popular for its shine and vitality and the classy flavour it adds to our abode.

Being such enthusiastic users of natural stone, we are supposed to be very particular regarding stone maintenance and stone cleaning procedure and aware of various other facts related to such stones. There is a popular notion that the shine on the marble counter tops and floor tiles is achieved through application of certain chemical or polish, which is not true. The shine on marble is not externally incorporated; it is an inherent quality of the marble itself. However if the marble loses its vigour, its shine can be brought back chemically. For this you can trust The Marble Man who employs efficient techniques for marble floor restoration.
How to Get Rid of Dull Spots?
Often dull spots appear on stone bench tops and floors. This is because the polished surface gets etched away with continuous use or accidental spills of acidic materials. If etching is not attended to in time, the marble bench top may be ruined forever. If the etching seems to be mild, you can remove the spots with a marble polishing powder available in the market. But, if the etching is deep, it’s time for you to seek professional help.
Why Is It Necessary to Identify Stain on Stone Surface?
Identification of stain is important for various reasons. Firstly, if we proceed to clean or remove any particular stain without identifying it, we might use chemicals that will possibly bear no result and even hamper the stone surface badly. Moreover, before applying any chemical remover, we should ensure that we are actually dealing with a stain. A polished marble may become dull or discoloured when it comes in contact with any acidic substance. This discoloration is not a stain but etch marks. Chemicals used for removing stains will not work on etches.
Why Need Professional Natural Stone Restoration?
Natural stone, when newly installed, have a glossy finish that adds to the elegance of the room decor. However, with regular use, this finish tends to lose its lustre and put on a dim and dull look. This creates problem because, the reason why we use natural stone in the first place does not then seem to hold any meaning at all.
Natural stone restoration professionals have the knowledge, experience and tools to repair the worn out stones and restore its original glory. They remove scratches and deep etch by mechanical abrasion or diamond grinding. Stone restoration professionals can remove the deep rooted stains and polish the surface, thus giving a bright new look altogether.
