Cleaning of a Travertine Floor in Laguna Niguel

March 23, 2015 by

There are two sets of images from the Travertine Floor we cleaned and sealed with a Matte Finish in Laguna Niguel.

Before
Travertine flooring has become a popular choice, but unfortunately requires regular maintenance to keep up appearances. The natural voids and indentations can trap soilage and deteriorate the stone as pictured here.

After
What a difference a day makes! After four levels of cleaning and filling most voids we applied a premium penetrating sealer which left a matte (non-gloss) finish. The results were dramatic!

There is also a set of before and after picture of the travertine cleaning and sealing that we did in the kitchen as well.

If you have a travertine floor that is in need of cleaning and sealing and you live in Laguna Niguel or anywhere in Orange County please call us at for immediate assistance.

Here are before and after pictures that show the results of a Slate & Granite Restoration job we did on a Floor & Granite Counter in Orange, Orange County, California.

This slate floor had been constantly maintained with aggressive cleaning products, unfortunately the result was a dull, dirty floor without any color or lustre.

On the “after” photos, this is the same view of the slate floor following the restoration process. The use of non-recommended cleaners will break down to the floors, and cause deterioration much sooner than normal. All of our customers are instructed in proper maintenance, so as to protect their investment.

In the kitchen we also cleaned, polished and sealed the granite countertops.

Slate Patio Restoration, Cleaning in Laguna Hills, Orange County

December 20, 2013 by

Here are before and after pictures that show the results of a Slate Restoration, Cleaning  job we did on a Slate Patio in Laguna Hills, Orange County, California.

This backyard patio was installed with slate tiles surrounded by random flagstone pieces. After many pool parties, the overall appearance is dirty and colorless.

The after photo shows a restored patio with vibrant colors! Please note, the enhancer sealer we used has left a “matte” or non-shiny appearance. Many contractors and customers prefer high gloss sealers unfortunately, many of these “wet look” sealers do not last long in exterior applications.

Limestone Floors Restoration and Cleaning in Dana Point, Orange County

April 29, 2013 by

Here are before and after pictures that show the results of a Limestone Restoration, Cleaning  job we did on Limestone Floors in Dana Point, Orange County, California.

The before close up of the kitchen shows how extremely dirty and pitted this limestone floor had become. Following the deep cleaning process we were able to fill the many voids “holes” with a non-sanded grout which matched the color perfectly. This will also prevent the holes from gathering new dirt, grease and debris in the future.

We then cleaned the surface again with a pH neutral cleaner which enable the penetrating sealer to form a protective bond on the surface of this limestone. This limestone floor was sealed with a matte finish.

As always we prepped the customer on the correct way to maintain the limestone.

The same 18″ x 18″ limestone tiles were used on the exterior patio as well. The exterior patio was restored by the same process.

Slate Patio Restoration, Cleaning in Fullerton, Orange County

April 24, 2013 by

Here are before and after pictures that show the results of a Slate Restoration, Cleaning job we did on a Slate Patio in Fullerton, Orange County, California.

This slate patio had been neglected for the 28 years since it had been installed. This customer was planning on removing this slate patio because of its poor condition. The home was going to be put on the market soon and they feared that this slate patio would make a poor first impression. For a fraction of the cost of the removal alone much less a brand new patio we were able to show significant improvement and help make this house market ready.

The enhancer sealer that we used helped to bring out the natural color and prevent any more shaling of the slate. Shaling occurs when layers of the slate break off.
