Limestone Has Unique Care Needs and We Know Them Well
Many people believe limestone to be one of the easier to care for stones but the truth is that if you want it to last as long as possible, you do need to take some maintenance steps. This is why you don’t generally see it used for high-traffic areas. The good news is that Fuller Travertine Cleaning has many years of experience with a wide range of limestone services.
We Provide Comprehensive Limestone Cleaning Services
Limestone is a porous stone that, if not cleaned regularly, can begin to look dull or dinghy. This is generally caused by dirt getting in the pores, though if you have limestone in an outdoor environment it could also be an isle of mildew or algae.
The best way to handle these issues is to have limestone professionally cleaned. You can trust Fuller Travertine Cleaning to use safe, effective pressure washing equipment. We use the best equipment and the right settings to ensure that your stone is cleaned without risk of damage.
Turn to Us for the Limestone Maintenance Services You Need from the Professionals
There are a few maintenance steps you can take to care for your limestone. We recommend that you:

- Dust mop regularly.
- Place doormats at each entrance to prevent bringing grit and dirt onto the limestone surface.
- Do not put hot dishes on the stone.
- Do not put wet glasses directly on the stone.
- Have your limestone sealed and then reseal it yearly.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners, an acidic cleaner, or a cleaner that is not made specifically to be safe on limestone surfaces.

Limestone Restoration Can Bring New Life to Old Stones
From cracks to chips, from dull spots to etched spots, we have you covered. Restoration may include repairing damage, deep cleaning your limestone, staining it, and sealing – it all depends on the state of your limestone and what you’re looking for.
Make Sure the Right Stain is Used on Your Limestone Surface
You cannot use just any stain on limestone. You need a stain that was created specifically for the unique porousness of limestone. Choosing the wrong one can damage or reduced the structural integrity of your stone. At Fuller Travertine Cleaning we use commercial-grade stains specifically made for limestone.
Do You Need Help Sanitizing Your Limestone Surface?
There may be no better time to have your limestone surfaced sanitized than right now. The best option is to contact the stone care professionals at Fuller Travertine Cleaning. We can get the process started right away so you get the peace of mind you deserve that you have taken all steps possible to keep your surface safe and sanitized.
Seal Your Limestone Yearly
Whether you choose to stain your limestone or not, you should have it sealed and then resealed yearly. The result will be stone that is less absorbent and much less likely to become stained if liquid is spilled on it. That said, you will still need to clean up any spills as soon as possible.
