Natural Stone Cleaning & Polishing Specialists

Natural stone requires specialist care. At Alpha Restoration Scotland, we provide professional stone cleaning, polishing, and sealing using surface-appropriate, controlled methods that enhance the stone without causing damage.

We work with materials including marble, limestone, travertine, slate, terracotta, quarry tiles, and heritage stone floors. Over time, stone becomes dull, etched, stained, or uneven due to wear, moisture, and incorrect cleaning products. Our process restores clarity, depth, and natural character.

Professional Stone Cleaning & Mechanical Refinement

Stone surfaces are deep-cleaned, mechanically refined where required, and polished to the desired finish — from soft matt to high sheen. We then apply breathable, impregnating sealers to protect the stone while allowing it to perform naturally.

Tailored Treatment for Every Stone Surface

Each stone floor is treated individually — no aggressive shortcuts, no one-size-fits-all solutions.

The result: stone surfaces restored with balance, refinement, and longevity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Further understand our quality services with helpful answers to common questions.

We work with a wide range of natural and heritage stone, including marble, limestone, travertine, slate, terracotta, quarry tiles, and Victorian stone floors. Each stone type is assessed individually to ensure the correct cleaning and restoration methods are used.

Stone can become dull, etched, or uneven due to foot traffic, moisture, spills, abrasive dirt, and incorrect cleaning products. Acidic or harsh cleaners are a common cause of long-term damage to natural stone surfaces.

  • Stone cleaning removes embedded dirt, residues, and surface contamination.
  • Honing mechanically refines the surface to remove scratches, etching, and wear, creating a smooth matt or satin finish.
  • Polishing further refines the stone to restore clarity and achieve anything from a soft sheen to a high-gloss finish.


Each step is used only where appropriate for the stone and desired result.

Yes. Etching, surface wear, dull patches, and uneven finishes can usually be removed or significantly improved through professional honing and polishing, restoring balance and uniformity to the surface.

No. We use controlled, surface-appropriate techniques and specialist equipment. There are no aggressive shortcuts or one-size-fits-all solutions — every stone surface is treated with care and respect for its material and age.

We can restore stone to a range of finishes, including:

  • Soft matt

  • Satin / honed

  • Low sheen

  • High polish

The finish is chosen based on the stone type, setting, and your personal preference.
