Unlike buying a product that is the same from one company to another, purchasing a service such as travertine polishing requires a clear understanding of each company. First narrow your search to only those companies specializing in stone restoration. Many companies divide their time providing carpet or tile cleaning services rather than focusing exclusively on stone floors such as LCS Stone Care. Next, understand what each company proposes to do such as the levels of diamond abrasives. To choose the best specialist you must become an informed consumer so ask many questions. If you only compare prices you may be cheating yourself out of the best job. Finally find out who will be doing the actual work. There’s a big difference in the personal care provided by a family owned and operated company. Some questions to ask before hiring a company: – Is the company privately owned or a franchise? – Is the company certified in stone restoration? – Does this company specialize in stone or try to cover a wide range of services? – Who will be doing the actual work? L.C.S. differs from others in many ways including: over 35 years of experience in the Tampa Bay area, specialization and certification for stone restoration, and quality customer service through owner operation.
The maintenance needs for each project is different especially when you consider there are filled or unfilled travertine floors, honed or polished. Polishing travertine floors depends on many factors such as foot traffic, cleaning, acidic spills etc. Typically customers like to schedule their maintenance polishing every 1-3 years. If you start to see visible wear patterns it’s important to call for a consultation before a more expensive honing process is required in addition to the polishing.
One of the greatest benefits of travertine restoration is the maintenance. Unlike the initial refinishing, maintenance re-polishing is done only in high traffic areas at a fraction of the cost of restoration. The maintenance procedure involves a simple spray-buff re-polishing of traffic areas as needed. Proper maintenance by a stone professional like LCS Stone Care is the most important part of keeping your floor looking its best and protecting the investment of your initial restoration.
