Project Details

Stone Type:
Marble
Room:
Bathrooms, worktops and floors
Service Provided:
Diamond resurface and velvet hone

Our client had installed Indian green marble throughout her home several years previously. As such a statement stone, she was keen to ensure that it remained as beautiful as the ay it was installed. After contacting CG Marble who had supplied the stone, they recommended Athena Stonecare to restore the stone throughout.

Using a series of diamond abrasives the floors, sinks, vanities and worktops were resurfaced to to remove surface scratches and etch marks. They were then refinished to a  velvet/satin hone and apply 4 coats of colour enhancing impregnating sealant.

Part of the process of restoring any stone includes discussing options for the finish which ranges from honed to highly polished. The finish chosen for this Indian marble enabled the intricacies of the stone to shine through in a very subtle way. For this sort of stone, a high polish would reflect the light in a way that would almost dull some of the stunning impact of this marble.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Testimonial

Our travertine floor came up like new. Very knowledgeable and efficient staff, a professional service for sure. They were very good with our dog too, always a bonus as she's quite fretful. Thanks Athena Stonecare.

Athena Stonecare has been fantastic! We had two circular marks on our marble fireplace caused by a leaking vase and Athena Stonecare has been able to remove these marks and return the fireplace to it's former glory. We are delighted and do fortunate to have found this company

Great company and team. Easy to deal with and discuss requirements. The quality of work and attention to detail is exceptional. I strongly recommend this company.

Testimonial

The professional who inspected the floor was clearly most knowledgeable and he also actioned the work subsequently. A date was agreed and the work was carried out with care and attention and minimum disruption. The floor now looks exactly as it did when initially installed. I have no hesitation recommending Athena Stone and will call them myself when another part of the floor needs refreshing.

Dealing with Athena has been seamless throughout. I have been impressed by Athena’s professionalism and customer focus from the beginning and this applies to everyone involved from reception, to administration to the actual treatment of the floor.
