Stone Restoration & Cleaning Experts
We Make Stone Floors & Counters Shine Again!
Are your stone countertops or floors looking dull and worn from use and age? We can restore that fresh stone shine to like new.
At SV Professional Cleaning, we understand the pride you take in your home, especially the elegant natural stone surfaces that define its character. We specialize in bringing back the natural beauty of your marble, granite, limestone, travertine, and other cherished stone surfaces through expert honing, polishing, chip and crack repairs, and sealing. As a local, family-owned business, we’re committed to delivering 5-star service with our IICRC-certified technicians right here in Alexandria, VA, and the surrounding Northern Virginia, DC, and Maryland area.
Our Expertise in Stone Restoration
We restore a wide range of stone surfaces in homes, including countertops, showers, vanities, and floors. Our expertise covers popular stone types like marble, granite, limestone, and travertine, and we also handle quartzite. For specialized materials like slate and engineered quartz, we offer case-by-case evaluations to ensure we can deliver the best results. Please note that our services do not include re-grouting.
We address a variety of common issues that diminish the beauty of your stone, including unsightly etch marks caused by acidic spills or cleaners, light to moderate scratches, and overall dullness or loss of shine. We also repair small chips and cracks and remove mineral and soap film buildup from showers, restoring their original clarity and finish.
When it comes to stains, we employ industry-proven methods to lighten or remove them. However, it’s important to understand that stain removal is not always guaranteed, and we set clear, upfront expectations with every homeowner. Our comprehensive approach to stone care is informed by proven industry categories such as countertop refinishing, floor polishing, shower restoration, chip/crack repair, and etch mark removal—used here only as structural inspiration, not copied verbatim.
Understanding Results and Limitations
We believe in transparent communication regarding expected outcomes. For surface scratches and etches, our honing and polishing process flattens the stone so you typically won’t feel the scratch with your finger; however, visibility depends on the depth and the natural mineral structure. If damage involves very deep gouges or extends into certain mineral veining, some visual trace may remain even after the surface feels smooth. We discuss these possibilities during the initial assessment.
Similarly, while we have effective techniques to draw out stains, some may not fully come out. We are always upfront about the likely outcomes before we begin work.
Who We Serve and Why Homeowners Call Us
We work exclusively with homeowners who seek pristine, high‑end finishes for their kitchens and baths—particularly detail‑oriented clients who appreciate a flawless aesthetic. They value meticulous protection of their home, clear communication, and predictable results from a certified, family‑owned local company.
Homeowners often reach out after housecleaning crews inadvertently use harsh products that etch or dull stone surfaces. Other times it’s everyday wear—minor scratches, a general loss of clarity, or mineral and soap film buildup in showers. Accidental chemical spills during household projects are also a common reason to call.
Typical Project Timelines
Project duration depends on scope and complexity. Most countertop restorations are completed within a half day to one full day. Shower restorations typically require one full day. For floor projects, timelines range from one to four days, based on square footage and complexity.
Our Meticulous Restoration Process
Our process begins with meticulous preparation. We fully mask and protect the entire work area to contain any slurry, splashes, and dust, ensuring your home remains clean and undisturbed—we never cut corners. Following this, we thoroughly clean and prep the surface. Any necessary chip and crack repairs are completed as the initial step before we proceed with surface refinishing.
The core of our stone restoration service in Alexandria involves wet honing with progressively finer abrasives to flatten and refine the stone, followed by polishing to achieve your desired finish, whether matte, satin, or high-gloss. This choice is guided by the specific stone type and your preference. As a final step, we apply a quality penetrating sealer where appropriate to protect your newly restored surfaces. Throughout the process, we uphold the highest standards of care—using corner guards, door sealers, and floor protection—and always leave a tidy job site.
