Limestone maintenance and restoration

Limestone is a Sedimentary stone, it is basically formed through years of sediment and elements settling into areas are compacted over time with heat and pressure to form bedrock.
Once quarried Limestone is a beautiful looking stone and can compliment almost any property.
More dense variaties can be polished right up to a mirror finish.
However Limestone Cleaning and Maintenance cleaning and maintenance can be a challenge and is best left to the professionals.
As Limestone is formed through settling sediments like sand grains, there are air pockets in between the grain particles and this is where soiling can become easily ingrained into the surface of the stone. In some cases when the soiling is deep down into the pores of the surface a simple clean or steam cannot remove the unsightly soiling stains and marks.
Surfaces can also become heavily worn with traffic over time.Limestone restoration and Resurfacing is the best solution to restore your limestone worn or heavily soiled floor or surface, this removes the unjulations from the wear and etching and results in an even surface.
