Complete Stone Restoration

Transform Your Stone from Worn to Wow

If your stone floors or countertops have lost their luster, complete restoration is what you need. Our comprehensive process addresses every issue your stone may have — scratches, etching, dullness, staining, and general deterioration.

• Scratches and abrasions from daily wear and tear
• Etching caused by acidic foods, drinks, or cleaning products
• Dull, lackluster appearance from years of foot traffic
• Stains from spills, grout discoloration, or improper sealing
• Poor factory finishes that never looked quite right
  

Our Multi-Tiered Diamond Honing & Polishing Process

Every stone is different, that's why we start with our discovery phase. We test your stone using different diamond grits based on the Mohs Hardness Scale. The stone communicates with us during this process. After 30+ years, we know exactly what to listen for. The result? Stone that looks better than it did when brand new.

Maintenance & Tune-Ups

Keep Your Stone Looking Perfect Year After Year

One of the great things about natural stone is that it can last for the life of your home, as long as you maintain it properly. Think of stone maintenance like changing the oil in your car. Regular tune-ups prevent small issues from becoming big problems and keep everything looking and performing at its best.

We typically recommend a professional tune-up every five years, though high-traffic areas might need attention a bit sooner. The frequency really depends on your lifestyle, the amount of foot traffic, and how well the stone is holding up.

The Beauty of Having Your Prescription on File:

Here's where our custom prescription system really shines. Because we documented exactly what your stone needed during the initial restoration—the specific grit numbers, rotation speeds, and process steps, we can recreate those perfect results quickly and efficiently.

A typical kitchen tune-up takes us about an hour to an hour and a half. We come in, refresh your countertops or floors using your prescription, and you're back to that just-restored look. No guesswork, no trial and error, just consistent, beautiful results every single time.

What's Included in a Tune-up:

• Inspection to assess current condition
• Removal of minor scratches and surface wear
• Re-polishing to restore shine and depth
• Addressing any minor etching or staining
• Recommendations for care until next tune-up
  

Damage Repair

Fast Fixes for Accidents and Mishaps

Life happens. You drop a heavy jar on the granite counter. Someone spills red wine on the marble. A chair leg scratches the travertine. Whatever the accident, we can fix it—usually in less than an hour.

Common Issues We Fix:

• Chips and cracks from dropped objects
• Deep scratches from furniture or accidents
• Etching from acidic spills (lemon juice, wine, coffee)
• Stains that won't come out with regular cleaning
• Water rings or heat marks on stone surfaces
  

Our Repair Process:

The great advantage of having your prescription on file is that we can match the repair perfectly to the surrounding stone. We use the same diamond grits and techniques that we used for your original restoration, ensuring that the repaired area blends seamlessly with the rest of the surface.

Most repairs are surprisingly quick. For something like a wine stain or minor scratch, we can often take care of it in 30 minutes to an hour. Even more significant damage—like a chip or deep scratch—rarely takes more than a couple of hours.

When we're done, you won't be able to tell where the damage was. The repair will be completely invisible, and your stone will look perfect again.

Pro tip: Don't panic if you have an accident. Give us a call right away, and we'll schedule you as quickly as possible. The sooner we address it, the easier it usually is to fix.

Historical Restoration

Preserving History with Expert Care

Working on historic properties requires a completely different level of care, knowledge, and respect. These aren't just floors or countertops,  they're pieces of history that have witnessed centuries of life. They deserve to be treated with the reverence they've earned.

We've been entrusted with restoring stone in centuries-old homes in Savannah and Beaufort, as well as historical buildings throughout the Lowcountry. This work has earned us the trust of preservationists, historians, and homeowners who understand the importance of maintaining historical integrity.

What Makes Historical Restoration Different:

Historic stone often has characteristics that newer stone doesn't, unusual wear patterns that tell a story, patina that has developed over time, variations in the material itself. The goal isn't to make it look brand new (which would actually detract from its character), but rather to restore its beauty while respecting its age and history.

This requires understanding old stone working techniques, recognizing the signs of historical wear versus damage that needs repair, and knowing when to preserve character versus when to restore. It's a delicate balance that comes only from experience.

Our Approach to Historic Properties:

• Thorough assessment of the stone's condition and history
• Consultation with homeowners about preservation goals
• Careful testing to determine the safest and most effective approach
• Gentle techniques that preserve historical character
• Extra attention to protecting surrounding historical features
• Documentation of work for historical records



As Doug says: "It's more than just fixing a floor. It's respecting that this is a very delicate home. You have to be very careful, and you have to know what you're doing." We're honored to help preserve these important pieces of our region's history.
