The Problem
This travertine floor in the Pinnacle Tower, a residential high-rise building in downtown San Diego, needed to be cleaned as you can see in the BEFORE image. Notice the rug line along the left-hand side, the sand and grime from foot traffic, and the dirty grout lines.
Our Solution
The unsightly surface layer was removed with our travertine floor cleaning and honing process, revealing the beautiful new floor underneath. Then we applied a solvent-based, impregnating sealer to protect the travertine from spills.
The results were more than satisfactory as you can see in the AFTER image. The client was very pleased with the way the grout lines disappeared, giving the floor an elegant, monolithic appearance.
