Slate

Professional Slate Services

Slate is a warm, earthy natural stone that needs to be properly cleaned and sealed after installation and periodically thereafter in order to maintain its beauty.

If your slate looks dull and unattractive, professional slate services can make a big difference. Aggressive cleaning may only make matters worse, because slate has a unique composition that requires very specific cleaning methods and solutions.

Slate comes in several different textures. There is a smooth slate and a cleft finish, which is a rough finish. Depending on the finished look you want, there are different ways to clean, seal and refinish slate. Only experienced, qualified slate restoration technicians should work with your valuable slate investment.

Slate Stripping and Cleaning

We remove heavy waxes, floor finishes, and soap residue that trap dirt, grime, and other contaminants from the surface of your slate and then follow up with cleaning and sanitizing your slate to prepare it for the finish you have in mind.

Slate Sealing and Refinishing

We can provide a gloss finish, matte finish, or a low luster finish, using color enhancers, topical coatings such as wax, penetrating sealers and more. Our sealing services restore the rich, natural colors and make the overall appearance of your slate clean and elegant.
