Marble Restoration Services Dublin

The quality of the results depends on the products used, and the skill level of the crew. With us, you can rest assured of a professional job each time. Our crew have been providing the marble restoration services for years, and have been thoroughly trained on the various tasks of the operations. They also keep abreast with the latest developments in the industry, in order to apply the most appropriate systems for your particular installation.

The products used for the marble polishing services are from renowned brands, which have a track recorded of delivering on the performance expected. These are the like of Faber, who have been developing surface care and treatment formulations for over 3 decades now. Here, the product selected is determined by the desired outcome, plus the current state of your marble installation. For instance, when you want the vitreous effect to be given more depth that is also visible against the sunlight, our crew can use a wet polishing powder like the Faber A3 Yellow. In fact, with this formulation, attributes such as the surface resistant to dirt and foot traffic also get enhanced, allowing your floors and countertops to look elegant for longer. It may be a situation where mechanical polishing as being carried out, but a point was reached where the machines could not access ascertain areas of the establishment. There could be obstacles on the way. On the other hand, it may be an issue of different level in regards to the lippage, or the floor may simply not be flat enough for proper mechanical polishing to be accomplished. For such situations, abrasive creams such as the Faber ABR 600 come in. Its micro-abrasive polishing particles enable it to be used in place of the intermediate grain sizes of the resin pads that would have been employed, allowing an even finish to be obtained. This particular formulation is also beneficial for removing the scratches and blemishes on brushed natural stone, and also for giving surfaces that have been polished, but lack a shine, a honed look. In case there are deep surface aggressions on the buffed marble surfaces, the ABR 600 can also be used to boost the functioning of the K100, also from the same brand, to repair the damage.

With the mixed flooring, where the structure is made up of different natural stones, the Faber Universal Glossy is employed by our crew to give the surface a bright vitreous effect that is uniform all through. This formulation provides additional protection from soiling, and its fast application cuts down the amount of time taken for the process. The white Faber A2 Mix damp polishing powder also adds to the depth of the shine, and features such as its zero volatility nature ensure that you won’t have to worry about the dust being released or dispersed into the air during the application. What’s more, the A2 Mix does not alter the surface hardness of the underlying treatments and contributes to the increased resistance to wear from foot traffic. It’s an ideal formulation for enhancing the quality of the finished result.

Superior Mechanical Polishing – Marble Restoration Services Dublin

Grinding and polishing marble surfaces mechanically requires tough products. After all, it is dealing with stone, which nature has moulded into a strong structure. Different equipment is used for the task, based on the sections being worked on and the level of grit that is required. Take for instance when dealing with edges, where edge polishing machines come in. Here, our crew fit pads such as the resin bond KGS Speedline® EDGE SF polishing discs, which are used for wet polishing. Coming in different sizes, Ø125 mm and Ø150 mm with a snail fit, these units will get the polishing done without affecting the colouration of the marble surface being worked on. The grit levels range from 60 to 3000, employed appropriately based on the state of polishing. The alternative Speedline® EDGE that comes with QRS backing can also be used for the task wet polishing, getting to the  edges on 12, 20 and 30 mm. There are cases when hand-held machines will be used, especially for the light grinding and polishing. Here, the pads incorporated include KGS Swiflex® XX for dry polishing, which delivers superior results without causing any staining or discolouration. The KGS Swiflex® CX, a resin sandpaper that’s diamond coated, is an economical approach that also delivers a good performance especially with its coarse grit sizes.

For wet polishing with hand held machines, our crew can use pads such as the KGS Speedline® MM, which is a resin bond disc that comes with coloured QRS, or even the KGS Speedline® CM. These units have been designed for use on marble installations, and issues like discoloration of the surface won’t crop up. There are grit levels from rough grinding to smooth polishing. In some cases, our crew will need to work by hand, especially for those sections that require a more personal, up close touch. Here, units like the KGS Telum® Handpads come in. They are made of a foam block that is flexible for easy working, and getting around the irregular surfaces, and is diamond coated. The interlocking pattern of the structure enables a quality finish to be obtained. The KGS Flexis® diamond handpads can also be used, for both wet and dry polishing, providing a uniform grinding performance during their life. Measuring 85×50 mm, they are easy to polish with, reducing the workload on our crew without compromising on the desired quality of the results. What of the expanding rubber drums? These are also part of the tools used during the marble restoration services, being capable of working on both internal and external surfaces. The machines used here work with diamond belts such as the KGS Telum®, that delivers a flat polished surface, and KGS Flexis, which is applicable for wet polishing.

When it comes to the single head machines used with the floor renovation systems, pads like the KGS RENOVATOR™ System come in handy. These resin bond diamond pads can level floors with lippage of up to 1.5mm. The non-woven KGS Frankfurt diamond polishing pads can also be used with the single head machines for the task. In fact, when this is done with the Stone Shine unit from the same brand, a deep natural gloss can be obtained. In those situations where orbital sanders are being used, there are units like the KGS Telum® Triangle Fein whose flexibility enables them to grind and polish corners. The KGS Flexis® Triangle Fein works here too, with grits from 60 to 3000 to set a quality polished result on the troublesome corners.
