Once the damaged areas are removed, we can offer a choice of polish; variants include a semi-shine to a high gloss finish.
A process such as ‘honing’ acts to remove wear from the surface to improve the finish of the polishing process. It is also used to achieve a low shine finish.
Alternatively, harsher cutters are used for grinding where scratches or tiles are not level and thus are able to reproduce a levelled surface again.
Stone Maintenance
Whilst a full restoration is not always required to recapture the original beauty of the stone, a tailored maintenance system can prevail were regular cleaning is insufficient to maintain stone surfaces which by nature is porous and susceptible to wear.
A tailored maintenance schedule can be specifically designed to have your marble looking at its peak state of perfection at all times. We advise that high traffic areas be covered more regularly to avoid more deep seeded damage to the stone.

Specialist Stone Cleaning & Sealing
Melbourne's Specialist Cleaning & Sealing
Specialist Cleaning & Sealing of Stone / Tiles
A sealer is a solution applied to the surface of natural porous stone surfaces to protect them from staining. Remaining untreated and unprotected, such natural stone surfaces can result in stains due to constant exposure from dirt, spills from food, drink and oils, which over time can become permanently damaged.
Seeking a professional applicator, such as trained stone technicians at Diamond Stone Restoration, will ensure that the most appropriate sealers are selected for the surface type and location as well as the application process being correct.
Prior to any application process, a technician will assess the stone type, finish and location determining:
- the type of sealer required (water or solvent based)
- if stain removal is required pre-treatment
- if polishing or honing is required pre-treatment
A penetrating sealer is typically used on polished stone to allow it to breathe without increasing slip.
Alternatively, a variety of topical sealers may be selected in order to provide a more robust protection.
Benefits of sealing a natural stone floor include:
- The look of the stone will be extended and preserved if sealed before use
- An older stone that has undergone stain removal or polishing will maintain a fresher appearance for extended time
- High traffic areas susceptible to spills, animals, foot traffic and pot plant ring marks will reduce likelihood of developing permanent stains
We are able to provide sealing to:
- Driveways
- Sheds
- Pool areas
- Work shops
- Concrete
- All stone surfaces indoor and outdoor
- All stone floors
- All tile and paver types
Diamond Stone Restoration are registered applicators for a range of sealing products, enabling us to provide warranties up to 15 years if treated stone surfaces are maintained according to instructions provided.
NOTE:
- Sealing does NOT prevent etching to natural stone (especially marble) when exposed to acidic liquids such as wine, lemon juice or some cleaning solutions.
- Engineered Stone is promoted as NOT requiring additional sealing as it comes with a factory seal. Should staining occur, contact the manufacturer directly for directions

Anti-Slip Protection / Treatment
Anti-Slip Protection / Treatments to Stone, Tiles & Concretes
Effectively improving safety to floors can be achieved in an affordable process via anti slip technology. Through the use of specialised polishing techniques and products, tile, stone, concrete and other hard surfaces are able to be modified to increase their traction, even when wet.
Hard surfaces such as stone, tiles, concrete and pavers become naturally slippery when wet or contaminated by substances such as detergents, paints and oils. The smoother and less porous the surface presents, the more slippery the surface becomes.
Through the skilled use of trained technicians and diamond-cut polishing, not only will this system assist in slip prevention, it will in turn increase the floor’s aesthetics and durability by achieving a perfected non-slip coating.
Safety is of upmost importance, so team together with Diamond Stone Restoration and their superior expertise to upgrade to a non-slip floor and aim to avoid unnecessary liability and litigation.
We treat:
- All indoor and outdoor areas
- All stone surfaces
