What this job involves
Address a dull mark caused by a surface reaction rather than embedded dirt.
Assessment before agreeing the work
Check the stone finish, affected area and likely chemical exposure.
Scope to confirm in the quotation
Agree a compatible honing or polishing approach following a test patch.
How the cost is assessed
Stone restoration should start by identifying the material and the defect. A dull finish, an acid etch, a stain, a crack and an uneven tile edge require different treatments. An agreed test patch helps establish the achievable appearance before work proceeds over the full floor.
- Stone type, finish and surface condition
- Area, access and amount of furniture to move
- Depth of damage and the sequence of treatment stages
- Edge work, slurry control and protective treatment
The final scope and price depend on the site assessment, quantities, chosen materials and agreed exclusions. Ask for an itemised quotation rather than assuming a standard rate covers every condition.
Before the site visit
- Send photographs in natural light and at a low viewing angle.
- Identify any cleaning products involved in the damage.
- Agree whether the target is a gloss, satin or honed finish.
Check building access, water use and floor-protection requirements. Confirm stone compatibility with a test patch. Restoration results depend on the material and damage; deep cracks, structural movement and permanent staining may need separate repair or replacement.
Check the completed work
Compare sheen and blending with the surrounding stone after treatment.
Agree which records, material details and follow-up items will be handed over. Record any area outside the agreed scope so it is clear what has been inspected and what still needs attention.
