Clients of MCS Stonecare who own a large property in Loughton, Essex had this beautiful marble especially imported from Portugal approximately 12 years ago and was fitted through the whole ground floor plus two flights of stairs.
With no maintenance plan in place the finish of the marble tiles had deteriorated very badly over the years and they had become dull and dirty looking with day to day cleaning becoming a horrible chore.
There was virtually no visible improvement showing for the effort that had been put in; the result was that it had spoiled the look of their beautiful home.
The client revealed that if the marble floor could not be restored he would rip the floor up and have it replaced at great expense.
After a test area had been selected to bring the floor back to its original condition and approved, a date was eagerly set to carry out the marble restoration.
Because of the large area to be restored, the floors were done room by room to cause less disruption to the family and to keep the moving of furniture down to a minimum.
Diamond grinding pads of different grits were used with a weighted machine to remove scratches and marks. The floor was cleaned in between stages to remove stone residue and grout lines were scrubbed clean.
The surface was then polished to bring the floor back to its former glory with a high shine; marble polishing is an incredible part of the restoration process. Stain-Gard SB Impregnator was then applied for added protection.
Our clients were absolutely delighted with the finished result and said the floor looked better than when it was originally laid.
