At Tile & Stone Medic Derbyshire, we specialise in professional stone floor cleaning, polishing and sealing to restore the natural beauty of your floors and protect them for the long term. Whether you need a simple deep clean or a full restoration, we have the experience and equipment to deliver outstanding results.
Stone flooring adds a timeless and natural beauty to any property. However, even the most durable stone surfaces can suffer from daily wear, staining, dullness and moisture damage over time. Without proper care, natural stone can quickly lose its charm and protective qualities.
Our Professional Stone Floor Cleaning Process
Natural stone floor cleaning requires careful, tailored treatment to avoid damage and bring out its best qualities. Our stone floor cleaning and restoration service in Derbyshire includes:
- Assessment and preparation
We inspect your floor to understand the stone type, surface condition and any previous treatments. - Specialist deep cleaning
Using industry-grade machines and stone-safe solutions, we lift ingrained dirt, stains and residues without harming the surface. - Stain treatment
We target specific stains like rust, oil, food spills or limescale, using appropriate techniques for each. - Polishing and resurfacing
For floors that have dulled or worn, we can polish or hone the surface to restore a smooth, natural shine. - Protective sealing
We apply a suitable sealant to guard against future staining, moisture ingress and wear.
We tailor every treatment to the needs of your specific stone, ensuring a careful, professional finish.
Types of Stone Floors We Clean and Restore
We work with all types of natural and engineered stone, including:
- Limestone floors – Naturally porous and often vulnerable to staining, acid damage and dulling.
- Travertine floors – Prone to filling loss, surface pitting and moisture staining.
- Slate floors – Can develop flaky layers, oil staining and require careful sealing to enhance natural colour.
- Marble floors – Susceptible to etching from acidic substances and loss of high polish.
- Sandstone floors – Often highly porous and vulnerable to water and dirt absorption.
- Granite floors – Tough but can become dull and stained without correct maintenance.
- Terrazzo floors – Made from stone and cement mixtures, requiring expert polishing to maintain sheen.
- Yorkstone and other local stones – Common in older properties, often needing careful restoration to retain character.
Each type of stone faces unique challenges, which is why we adapt our stone floor cleaning and restoration service in Derbyshire to suit your specific floor.

- Dullness and surface wear – Loss of shine and clarity, particularly in high-traffic areas.

- Flaking and surface erosion – Especially common with slate and softer limestones.

FAQs
The process we carry out will depend on your specific floor and the use that it gets. There will be variations for different materials and the finish that you wish to achieve. The process will also be impacted by the full scale of work that we carry out, for example which types of cleaning and restoration are being performed. It is not unusual to apply several layers of sealant if this is necessary and appropriate.
Firstly, a floor should always be sealed when it is first laid. Get in touch with us straight away if this hasn’t been carried out already. It will also need periodic sealing in order to protect the floor on an ongoing basis. How often sealing is required depends on a number of factors such as the specific material used for your flooring and the kind of use it has to survive. For example, a bathroom with natural tiles that is frequently exposed to water may require sealing more often than porcelain tiles in a kitchen. Frequent maintenance, such as sweeping and hoovering up the dust and grit that erodes floors when trodden on can help. Once the sealant is worn away, not only will scratches be more likely, the risk of staining or permanent damage from liquids is drastically increased as there is no protective layer to prevent absorption. If in doubt get in touch with our team of friendly technicians who can discuss your needs.
We have a range of high quality Faber products which will help protect your floors from damage. As every type of floor is different and has myriad uses, we will consult with you to work out the best way to protect your investment. We can apply topical sealants which form a protective layer on top of the floor, or if needed an impregnating sealant, which will be partially absorbed into the stone or tiles. There are many variations of these sealants and as each floor type has unique characteristics and vulnerabilities we can work with you to find and apply the the best kind of protection.
Absolutely. If this was not carried out by those who fitted the floor get in touch immediately to ensure that the appropriate protection can be applied as promptly as possible. We would recommend that this is carried out once the flooring is in place as this means the grout, which is generally more porous, will also be protected.
We apply a sealer to a floor in order to protect it. Different types of floor, both manmade and natural stone, are vulnerable to different sorts of damage. They can all be harmed by chemicals to a certain degree, even by the acid in food and drink spillages, as they will be very slightly porous. As well as this, they can be worn away by physical damage. Even foot traffic can have a big impact if dust or grit has built up on the floor, since it increases abrasions. A sealant will reduce the chance of a spill becoming a stain by reducing the floor’s ability to absorb liquids. It can also help protect the appearance of the floor by forming a protective barrier. A sealant won’t prevent all damage and it will still wear away over time, but it will help your floors last longer, helping protect your investment. Sealants will even help protect your floor from UV radiation which can lead to fading over the lifespan of a high value stone or tiled floor. We can consult with you to find the best sealant for your floor and the type of use it gets to make sure it receives the best form of protection.
We are happy offer advice on best practice to look after your flooring, but it depends on the type of floor you have. Once we’ve had a look at it we’ll be able to help.
Yes, we have a range of fillers we can use to repair chipped or dented stone. Please note we can only carry out floor repairs as part of a full deep clean or restoration for your stone floor. Unfortunately, we are not able to attend to carry out repairs in isolation.
Usually we are able to stabilise stone flooring where it has become loose. We can repair grouting and make spot repairs to the subfloor where necessary.

Unfortunately, we are not able to attend to carry out repairs in isolation.
Almost certainly. Send us a picture or a description and we’ll identify your stone. We always assess a surface before work starts in order to pick the most appropriate solution.

We always work in the most considerate way possible. Work will be tailored to your needs and will fit around your schedule where possible.
