Travertine honed, cleaned, and sealed.
Rug Line Reveals Dirty Travertine
When homeowners in Rancho Santa Fe, California rearranged their furniture, they moved a rug that had been on their travertine floor for years. They were shocked to see how clean the travertine floor was in the area where the rug had been compared to the surrounding floor.
They contacted us for a free estimate on professional travertine cleaning. We explained that it is very common for homeowners, who see their travertine floors every day, to overlook the gradual decline in the appearance of the stone. Ideally, travertine floors should be professionally serviced every year or two—or more often for homes and businesses with very high traffic.
Travertine Deep Cleaning
We masked and protected the surfaces surrounding our work area before doing any work.
First, we honed the stone to remove any surface damage, such as etching and light scratches. Then, we used professional cleaning solutions, equipment, and time-tested methods to deep clean the travertine and extract embedded dirt and contaminants. Our final step was to apply a high-quality impregnating sealer to inhibit staining.
The homeowners were relieved to see that our services not only removed the unsightly rug line but made the entire floor look fresh, clean, and inviting once again.
