I get called to renovate this Tumbled Limestone tiled floor at a property in Bromley every few years.

The other problem of course is the grout which due […]
This client from Burford in the Cotswold hills contacted us to see if I could polish up a Limestone table which was now surplus to requirements, and they wanted to sell it.

We were called out to a property in Paddock Wood to look at renovating a large Travertine tiled floor.

Earlier this year I went to look at a Travertine tiled floor at a property in Limpsfield Chart near Oxted in East Surrey. The travertine had been laid throughout the Kitchen and adjacent dinner and my client was having trouble maintaining its appearance which had now become dull and unappealing. The Travertine tiles also suffered […]
Travertine is known on the international market for being very distinctive in character and very durable, making it a very popular choice for tiled flooring in properties worldwide.
