Stone Floor Restoration & Maintenance
Natural stone floors make a statement of timeless beauty and sophistication in both homes and commercial spaces. Marble, granite, travertine, limestone, slate, or terrazzo floors are designed to endure heavy foot traffic, but daily wear and tear, spills, and improper maintenance can leave them looking dull, scratched, or stained. At Capitol Stone Care, we specialize in stone floor restoration throughout Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia—breathing new life into surfaces that have lost their original luster.
Common Stone Floor Issues
- Dullness & Scratches
Heavy foot traffic, moving furniture, and abrasive debris can mar the finish of stone floors, leaving them lackluster and scratched. - Lippage (Uneven Tiles)
Over time or due to initial installation issues, adjacent tiles can shift, creating raised edges or an uneven walking surface that’s both unsightly and potentially unsafe. - Stains & Discoloration
Porous stones can absorb spills—like coffee, wine, or oil—leading to deep-set stains if the floor isn’t properly sealed and spills aren’t cleaned promptly. - Etching & Chemical Damage
Acidic or harsh cleaning agents can eat away at calcium-based stones (such as marble or limestone), resulting in dull, etched spots on an otherwise smooth surface. - Chips & Cracks
Dropped objects or structural shifts can lead to damage that’s not only an eyesore but may also compromise the floor’s integrity.
Our Stone Floor Restoration Process
- On-Site Evaluation
We begin by thoroughly assessing your floor’s condition, noting any stains, damage, lippage, and prior coatings or sealants. - Deep Cleaning
Using specialized equipment and pH-neutral cleaning solutions, we remove embedded dirt, grime, and old residues—restoring clarity and preparing the surface for repair. - Grinding & Honing (If Needed)
To fix uneven surfaces or deep scratches, our team may perform a controlled grinding procedure. This process levels the tiles and eliminates lippage. We then progress to honing with finer abrasives to smooth the surface, removing minor scratches, scuffs, and etching. - Repairs & Filling
For cracks, chips, or missing sections, we use color-matched fillers and epoxies to restore the surface seamlessly. - Polishing & Finishing
Depending on the stone type and your desired look—ranging from a matte honed finish to a high-gloss polish—we refine the floor to its best possible sheen. - Sealing & Protection
Finally, we apply a premium-quality sealant formulated for your specific stone type, helping to guard against future staining, moisture penetration, and wear. This step not only preserves the floor’s revitalized appearance but also extends its lifespan.

Tips for Maintaining Stone Floors
- Regular Sweeping & Mopping
Remove dust, dirt, and grit daily or weekly with a soft-bristle broom or microfiber mop to minimize abrasion. - Use pH-Neutral Cleaners
Avoid acidic or highly alkaline products that can dull or etch the stone’s finish. Always check labels for compatibility with natural stone. - Prompt Spill Cleanup
Quickly wipe up spills—especially ones containing acids (like fruit juice) or dark pigments (like coffee)—to reduce the chance of staining. - Protective Measures
Use doormats in entryways to catch dirt and grit. Consider floor protectors or pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches. - Regular Sealing
Depending on the stone type and foot traffic, schedule resealing every 6–12 months to maintain a robust barrier against stains and water damage.
