Understanding this surface
Commercial sites require planning around access, safety, traffic, protection of adjoining finishes, dust and slurry, and maintenance needs.
Common reasons for an assessment
- Worn building foyers
- Busy stone corridors
- Mixed existing finishes
Possible restoration approach
The right method should be determined by an inspection and, where appropriate, a test area.
- Assess size, access and operating constraints
- Agree on safe scheduling and suitable finish
- Discuss maintenance and handover
What affects the quote?
The stone, depth of wear, desired finish, area, edges, repairs, access and previous coatings can all affect the scope. An instant price calculator cannot reliably account for these variables.
Questions about this type of work
Can a foyer remain open during restoration?
It depends on the equipment, access, slurry or dust control, drying and site safety. Some work may need staged access.
What can be done about recurring wear?
A suitable finish and maintenance plan may help, but heavy traffic and abrasive dirt can continue to affect appearance.
