There’s no denying that natural stone finishes – both interior and exterior – really add a quality feel to a property. To keep natural stone at it’s best, it’s important to employ correct natural tone cleaning techniques.

Non-destructive sandstone cleaning

Natural stones such as sandstone require sensitive, professional cleaning. While it’s sand composition is gorgeous to look at, if it’s not cleaned properly it can erode easily. This can lead to a loss in the attractive fine detail of the stone’s finish, or at worst heavy erosion.

That’s why we don’t use pressure washing in this situation. While pressure washing will leave the stone looking clean, there’s a good chance it will degrade the surface of the stone.

Instead, we use non-destructive soft washing methods which not only leave the sandstone looking sparkling clean but also in the same structural condition as before.

Limestone cleaning

Another difficult stone to clean is limestone. If limestone cleaning is not handled properly it can result in the integrity of the stone being compromised, leading to an expensive repair or even full replacement.

One of the limestone cleaning risks is using a cleaning product with high acidity, which can damage the core of the limestone and damage it for good.

Pressure washing is also rarely appropriate when it comes to limestone cleaning, as it can leave the subsurface vulnerable by removing the fine surface layer of the stone.

As such, the most reliable method for cleaning limestone is our specialist soft washing technique. It treats the root cause of the dirt for a long-lasting finish and ensures your limestone remains undamaged

Types of natural stone cleaning undertaken

• Marble cleaning
• Granite cleaning
• Sandstone cleaning
• Limestone cleaning
• Flagstone cleaning

 

Marble cleaning

If you’ve invested in an expensive marble floor, marble worktop, or marble structure, no doubt you’ll want to keep it in the best condition.

One of the first things we address with our marble cleaning is stains. If left untreated, and stains can blight marble indefinitely, so it’s best to get them cleaned straight away.

Our specialist soft wash marble cleaning process is a sensitive approach to removing marble stains. Following an inspection of the area, we will treat the marble and then sensitively soft wash with eco-friendly products. We will pay particular attention to the stained area, applying special treatments to assure the stain is removed completely.
