Our Stone Grinding Process
Every project is different; but our process always prioritizes precision and care.
1. Inspection & Free Estimate
We evaluate your floors to measure lippage, scratches, and surface damage.
2. Grinding
Specialized diamond grinding equipment removes uneven edges and deep imperfections.
3. Smoothing & Refinement
We gradually refine the stone to create a flat, uniform surface.
4. Final Sealing
A professional sealer protects the newly restored surface.
As an optional step, before the final sealing, you can take it a step further. Once leveled, the stone can be finished with a matte hone or glossy polish, giving it an extra detail to match your style.

FAQs about Stone Grinding
What is lippage in stone flooring?
Lippage refers to uneven tile edges where one stone is higher than the adjacent piece. It can occur from installation or natural settling over time.
Is stone grinding safe for my floors?
Yes. We use professional diamond grinding equipment designed for natural stone surfaces. Our process is safe and precise.
Do I need to polish after grinding?
Grinding leaves the surface flat and even. Many clients choose honing or polishing afterward to achieve their preferred finish.
How long does the process take?
It depends on the size and condition of the floor. Most residential projects are completed in one day.
