What Types of Stone Tile Problems Can You Fix?
Our stone tile restoration services can repair any types of problems with your natural stone. Cosmetic issues we commonly see include chips, scratches, etch marks, and dullness. Sometimes, all that a stone floor or countertop might need is a deep clean using professional-grade equipment in order to restore its gorgeous natural beauty.
What Causes Etching on Stonework?
Certain types of natural stone, such as marble and travertine, are prone to etching. Etching occurs when an acidic substance comes into contact with any type of stone that contains calcium carbonate. The result is a spot that looks dull and lighter in color. Often, it looks like a stubborn stain. Etching is commonly the result of substances such as the following:
- Vinegar
- Ammonia
- Bleach
- Tomato sauce/juice
- Coffee
- Wine
- Ketchup
- Colas
- Lemon juice
You can reduce the risk of stone etching by wiping up all spills promptly. After wiping up the spill, use a cleaner that is labeled safe for your type of stone. If you still notice etching, call our technicians and we’ll fix the problem for you!
