Marble Polishing Services
Marble polishing processes can be very controversial because there’s a lot of different ways to polish marble and every contractor uses a different technique. What technique is the best, and who can I trust? I’m going to address a few of the different ways you can polish a Marble because there is so many that I cannot address them all.
The most popular one is acid polishing with steel wool most commonly known as crystallization or verification.This alone is not recommended by Bizaillion Floors, LLC. . Another popular marble polishing process is diamond polishing which is basically running a very fine grit diamond with water until you receive the desired polish. This alone is not recommended by Bizaillion Floors, LLC. – Stone & Tile Restoration. Another popular system for polishing Marble is with polishing powders, pastes, or diamond pads. These pastes and powder are very complex with a lot of different components but to simplify it, these powders are very abrasive and acidic and when used right they can give good results. THIS ALONE is not recommended by Bizaillion Floors, LLC. – Stone & Tile Restoration because we feel that we can achieve a better result when we use all available techniques and technologies the world has to offer. At Bizaillion Floors, LLC. we study all the new advancements in marble polishing because we want to make sure we are using the best of the best at all times. Now with that said we recommend using a combination of different techniques depending on the marble and the situation. We don’t feel that one polish gives all the benefits that we can give, by using them all.
Travertine Cleaning Services
Our travertine cleaning typically involves our intensive cleaner that is very effective, but very gentle on your stone. We are very careful not to get the stone too wet, because any floor can be water logged or flooded. This is very important because water and soap can hurt or damage your floor by penetrating too deep. There are companies that will use surface cleaners, which are basically pressure washers with a vacuum, because they are faster. These machines use about 3 gallons/min, which is way too much water hitting the floor at too high a pressure.
Travertine is a form of limestone that is deposited by mineral springs. It has a fibrous or concentric look to it. It is formed by rapid precipitation of calcium carbonate at the mouth of a hot spring or in a limestone cave. It is sometimes known as travertine limestone or travertine marble but these are the same stone, although travertine is classified correctly as a type of limestone and not marble. The stone is characterized by the holes or troughs in its surface. Even though these troughs naturally occur, they suggest signs of considerable wear and tear over time. These holes can be filled with a special travertine filler. Travertine is one of the more popular stones in modern architecture. The largest building in the world is actually constructed mostly of travertine. In conclusion, travertine is a beautiful and often times unique natural stone that can make any room look beautiful. Whether you have a new travertine floor that you would like to keep looking like new or an older travertine floor that you want to restore, Bizaillion Floors, LLC. – Stone & Tile Restoration knows travertine.
