Stone Floor Cleaning Services

TORIK Cleaning System

This method of cleaning is non-abrasive and meant for surfaces that require a gentler cleaning. Some floors may be made of natural stone or delicate materials, so we rely on TORIK technology to ensure no damage is inflicted.

Certain stones may require a different method or solution to clean and disinfect the surface. TORIK delivers these methods in a way that even the most delicate of surfaces will remain sturdy and clean.

Do you know your stone?

Each stone surface will need a different type of cleaning method to produce significant results. Everyday household products can damage the surfaces; we have listed some of the stone floors we service along with the typical products that can ultimately dull their sparkle: 

Marble

Easily damaged by acidic spills including milk, tomato juice, wine and lemon juice

Granite

A naturally porous material, if liquids are spilt and left untreated, long-term damage and discolouration can occur. Serial offenders include red wine, fruit juice, berries and cooking oils. 

Porcelain

Out of all the stone surfaces, porcelain, like its name has the most porous surface. An acidic substance can ruin the visual appearance.

Travertine

With a honeycomb structure, new holes can appear at any time, if acidic substances such as coffee, wine or juice can enter the pores, permanent damage can occur

How a clean stone floor can prevent bacterial infestations

Having a natural stone floor is visually pleasing, and it can give an excellent flair to your home. However, because of their porous nature, they are easily stained and retain moisture over time. When this happens, your floor will begin to accumulate bacteria and grime, which could result in mould growth.

Regular cleaning is the best way to ensure this does not happen, and maintaining the sealant of your floor. Your stone floors will require a gentle clean: a simple sweep and mop with warm water will do the job just fine. You should not use any chemicals on your floor, as this may cause staining or deterioration.

If your floor has become stained by dark liquids like wine, juice, coffee, or tea, then you may need to call on professional stone cleaning services to remove them for you. We will utilise our technology to remove all stains present without damaging the surface.

We restore floors to their original state

One time is not going to damage the stone permanently, but repeated offences will leave the stone looking dull, the sealer will wear, and the grout will become full of dirt, resulting in a permanent unclean look. 

If your stone seal has worn off, you are exposing the bare surface, increasing a greater risk of long-term damage and the probability of a restoration task instead of a specialist stone service clean. When you notice the seal becoming loose or unstuck, it is a clear indicator that it is starting to wear.

You will need to call an ICE Cleaning specialist immediately to assess the situation and determine whether the stone requires a restoration process or can be saved with a professional cleaning.

If the stone can be kept via a thorough clean and added sealant, we will discuss and recommend the most effective products for your stone surface to make sure the sealant does not wear within the near future.

Should the surface have reached the stage where the seal has worn, and the bare surface has been exposed for a long duration, nothing a specialist cleaning service will do will bring it back to life. 

Our technicians have expert knowledge and the latest industry-leading technology readily available. This allows us to work efficiently on even the most fragile of surfaces without causing any further damage.
