SLATE TILE SERVICES
Slate is most commonly seen in tile form and originally comes from metamorphic rock. This metamorphic rock forms from low temperatures and pressure on fine clay. Once formed, it easily splits into thin sheets, which is why slate tile is so common. You can find slate in many colors, including gray, red, and purple. The wide range of colors makes slate a popular flooring choice for homes and businesses. Different colors merely indicate different minerals within the rock; they do not influence the strength or durability of your tiles.
Although slate tiles are strong and durable, they require regular maintenance. You must enlist slate floor cleaning services for your home or business. Services such as deep cleaning, stripping, grout repair, and waxing will help your tiles look and function at their best.
Deep cleaning removes dirt buildup that occurs naturally on all floors. The intense scrubbing during this process will help restore your floors to their original splendor. Businesses with high foot traffic will notice that they need cleaning services more than small households. However, slate tile will eventually need deep cleaning regardless of its location. Watch for dirt buildup, so you can schedule a cleaning at the appropriate time.
Stripping allows us to remove topical finishes and work with the natural state of your slate. After stripping, we can better assess your tiles and perform slate restoration as needed. Floor stripping is necessary when there are problems with the tile.
We never forget about grout, even as we focus on your natural stone. Grout repair fixes stains, holes, and cracks in your existing grout so that every piece of your tile floor looks beautiful together.
After your floor is clean and we finish repairing any grout problems, we will wax your floor. Waxing creates a protective barrier on your floor. Maintaining this barrier will keep your flooring in great shape for years to come.
While these four slate tile services are our most popular service options, they are not the only options we provide. For example, we offer filling and polishing services for slate tile and other natural stones. The goal of each of our services is to restore the natural beauty of your stone and allow that beauty to shine within your home or place of business.
