NATURAL STONEWe KNOW

We have a thorough understanding of marble, granite, travertine, limestone, slate and many other types of natural stone. We can resolve virtually any problem you might have and pride ourselves on educating you on the proper care and maintenance for all of your natural stone surfaces.

Frequently, customers will call us to say they have a stain on their marble, when in fact what they are seeing is actually etching in the stone. We can remove these marks, help you understand what causes your stone to etch, and show you how to prevent this from happening in the future.

Most, if not all natural stone will over time scratch and/or start to look dull, losing its original beauty. If this occurs we can restore your stone back to its original condition.

The way you clean your stone can actually affect the way it shines. Many times you are instructed to use only water on your stone, or worse yet, to use vinegar in your cleaning water. We’ll instruct you on the proper care and recommend products that will keep your stone surfaces looking their best. In addition to caring for and educating you about your natural stone surfaces, we can also speak to you about the variety of finishes that are possible. Natural stone is very versatile and can be honed to a high shine, semi-gloss or matte finish. The choice is up to you!

“STUNNING!”is the most frequent thing we hear when our work is done.Legs Hard Surface Restoration can make your

natural stone floors, countertops, vanity tops and shower walls look new again. We offer these services:

Polishing • Restoration • Maintenance Cleaning, Sealing & Enhancing • Crack and Chip Repairs

Commercial properties need to have a maintenance program that is designed for the facility and type of marble, granite or other dimensional stone.

Legs Hard Surface Restoration offers a customized maintenance program that can guarantee you will never need to restore your floors again.

Maintenance programs are less expensive than periodic restoration and your facility will look like new all the time. Our skilled technicians know what it takes to maintain your floors and are accustomed to working in hotels and office buildings where there may be guest or clients.

Our commercial maintenance is completed after your busiest hours of operations are over and we complete the work prior to the start of the day.
