CASE STUDIES
Travertine Needs Professional Attention
Homeowners in Hallbrooke, Leawood, KS used to appreciate the elegant, glossy finish of their polished travertine floor, even though there were a few tiles that had been unevenly laid (lippage). With time and use, the appearance of the floor diminished to a dull, dirty, unimpressive finish. The homeowners gave us a call for a FREE estimate to resolve both the lippage problem and the damage to the surface.
Our Travertine Refinishing
First, we leveled the floor and eliminated all the lippage to create a uniform, monolithic appearance. Then, we used polishing powder and a series of progressively finer grit diamond pads (200-1800 grit) mounted on professional equipment specially made for natural stone floors to hone away the scratches and other surface damage and polish it back to its former glory. The homeowners were very pleased with the results.
