Onyx Repair and Maintenance
Rockland Stone Restoration performs expert and professional onyx cleaning, polishing, sealing, repair, restoration, and maintenance services for onyx floors and surfaces in both residential and commercial properties. Whatever your need, we can restore the head-turning, translucent beauty of your onyx so it looks just as good or better than when it was installed.
Onyx Refinishing
Are your onyx surfaces too dull or too shiny? Call Rockland Stone Restoration and specify the finish you need. If you have a new floor with some tiles that look more glossy than others – let us even out the finish for you. Whether you have or are seeking to acquire a gloss, semi-gloss or matte finish, our knowledgable technicians can deliver a beautifully restored finish for all your onyx surfaces.
Lippage Removal / Grinding
When tiles are set unevenly, this is called lippage. Aside from detracting from the beauty of your installation, lippage can create a trip and fall hazard. You need not replace the entire floor, because our expert technicians can grind the stone to a uniform, flat surface. The honed or polished end result will look as good or better than when the floor was first installed.
Onyx Honing & Polishing
Onyx, a form of marble, is a truly stunning stone known for its incredibly rich colors and luminosity. But this calcium-based stone reacts to acids found in lemon, wine, cleaners, and other substances, which can result in etch marks on the stone surface.
Our expert technicians can hone your onyx countertops, furniture tops, walls, floors and other surfaces to eliminate etching, wear patterns, scratches, dullness and other problems. They can also achieve a honed or soft matte finish that is warm, inviting, and velvety smooth.
Rockland Stone Restoration can also polish your onyx using the appropriate diamonds or polishing powders to provide a beautiful, glass-like polish.
Sealing Onyx
Some natural stone types are more porous than others, and the more porous a natural stone is, the more susceptible it is to staining. Your marble will be easier to keep clean with periodic professional deep cleaning services, using non-acidic, highly-effective cleaning solutions. Once your marble is cleaned and restored, we may recommend you have us seal it to enhance its stain resistance. We say, "May" because not all stone needs to be sealed. Highly polished stone may not even take an impregnating sealer. But, if sealing is recommended, know that sealing represents an inexpensive, preventative measure against stain damage, because it buys you time to wipe up spills before they become stains.
Onyx Stain Removal
Rockland Stone Restoration is experienced in removing stains and discolorations from your onyx surfaces. Whether you are seeking guidance for do-it-yourself stain removal or would prefer to have Rockland Stone Restoration remove the discolorations for you, rest assured the original finish of your stone can be most likely be restored.
Scheduled Onyx Maintenance
Regular cleaning and janitorial services are valuable for simple, day-to-day care of onyx surfaces. But over time, their processes leave your surfaces with grout lines that just won’t come clean, shiny scratches, and increasingly obvious wear patterns. As these problems develop, you become more and more dissatisfied with the appearance of your onyx surfaces until it’s time for another round of professional restoration.
Rockland Stone Restoration provides both residential and commercial onyx maintenance services. In addition, we can recommend a maintenance program tailored to the placement, traffic, and usage of your onyx surfaces.
