I used Malcom recently to clean two mattresses for an end of tenancy refresh for a letting agency. The mattresses were quite stained with a strong odour. Malcom was very prompt, edficient and left the mattresses sanitised and free of harsh stains. Happy to recommend Malcom and his team to friends and colleagues.

I contacted Malcolm to clean a sofabed that needed a major clean as it was in a bad way. Wow the results were amazing. I couldn't believe how clean it was when it was finished . As good as when it was first purchased. I would have no hesitation in contacting Malcolm in future as it definitely would stop a lot of good furniture being thrown out. Malcolm was very professional from start to finish ,he came when he said he would and left me with a new sofabed. I was delighted with his work. I will definitely be calling on his services if required in future.

A Restoration Service, Not a Mop and Bucket

What I Do

Cleaning is only half of it. Where a floor has lost its finish, been scratched, etched or worn flat, I can grind, hone and polish the surface back, then seal it so it stays that way.

Natural Stone Restoration, Grinding & Polishing

Do your marble, travertine, limestone or slate floors still gleam as they once did, or have they gone dull and lifeless? Over time natural stone becomes ingrained with dust, dirt, oily and waxy deposits and layers of old polish, and foot traffic slowly wears the surface flat.

Cleaning alone will not bring that back. Using diamond tooling, I grind out scratches and etching, hone the surface flat, then diamond polish it to the finish you want, whether that is matt, satin or a full high polish. It is a genuine restoration, at a fraction of the cost of lifting the floor and starting again.

Deep Extraction Cleaning & Grout Restoration

Mopping moves dirt around. It settles into grout lines and into the texture of the tile, and no amount of household product will lift it back out. I use a weighted rotary machine and professional, pH-appropriate solutions to agitate the surface and release that soil from the pores of the tile and the grout.

It is then flushed and extracted under vacuum. That is a controlled rinse, not a high-pressure hosing. No mess, no water running under your kickboards, and your floor is walkable again the same day. Around 90% of grout has never been sealed, which is why it darkens so quickly. Once it is clean, I can seal it so it stays that way.

LVT, Karndean, Amtico & Vinyl Floors

Luxury vinyl tile is sold as low maintenance, so most people assume a tired LVT floor is simply worn out. Usually it is not. What you are looking at is years of supermarket floor polish, mop residue and dressing that has yellowed, gone patchy and trapped dirt in the embossing.

I strip that build-up back to the original surface, deep clean the embossed texture, then re-dress the floor with a professional finish in the sheen you prefer, from matt through to high gloss. Karndean, Amtico, LVT, sheet vinyl and safety flooring all handled to manufacturer-safe methods.

How It Works

My Restoration Process

Every floor is different, so nothing is guessed. I survey it, test it, and show you the result on your own floor before you commit to anything.

1

Survey & Free Demonstration

I identify the surface, test the finish, and clean a small area so you can see exactly what is achievable before you spend a penny.

2

Protect & Prepare

Skirtings, kickboards and adjoining surfaces are masked and protected, and the floor is cleared and dry-soil removed.

3

Deep Clean or Strip Back

Weighted rotary agitation with the correct solution for the surface, then a controlled rinse and vacuum extraction.

4

Restore & Polish

Where needed, diamond grinding and polishing to remove scratching and etching and bring the stone back to your chosen sheen.

5

Seal, Dress & Protect

An impregnating sealer or dressing is applied to repel spills and keep grout lines cleaner for longer, plus simple aftercare advice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about my tile, stone and LVT cleaning and restoration services.

How much does tile, stone and grout cleaning cost?
Every floor is different, so we provide an individual quote based on the size of the area, the type of surface, its condition and whether restoration or sealing is needed. The quote includes all equipment, solutions and labour required to complete the work, so there are no hidden extras.
What is diamond grinding and diamond polishing, and do I need it?
Cleaning removes soil from the surface. Diamond grinding and polishing removes the surface itself, a fraction of a millimetre, taking scratches, etch marks and worn traffic lanes with it, then progressively refining the stone back to a matt, satin or high-polished finish. You need it when a floor is not just dirty but physically dull, scratched or etched, which is common on marble, travertine, limestone and terrazzo. We will tell you honestly at the survey whether a clean will do the job or whether restoration is required.
Can you clean LVT, Karndean and Amtico floors?
Yes, this is one of the most rewarding floors we work on. Most tired LVT is not worn out, it is coated in years of old polish and mop residue that has yellowed and trapped dirt in the embossed texture. We strip that back, deep clean the surface, and re-dress it with a professional finish in the sheen you choose, using methods that are safe for Karndean, Amtico and other luxury vinyl products.
Do you use high-pressure water? Will it make a mess?
No. We do not blast your floor with high-pressure water. We use a weighted rotary machine to agitate the surface with the correct solution, then flush and vacuum-extract the soil in a controlled way. Skirtings and kickboards are protected, water is not left to run where it should not, and in most cases the floor is walkable again within a couple of hours.
Why can't I just mop my tile floors clean?
Regular mopping moves dirt around the surface and pushes it deeper into grout lines and into the pores of textured tile. Over time that build-up becomes impossible to remove with household products. Professional agitation and extraction lifts soil out from within the surface, a level of clean mopping simply cannot reach.
Can you restore my floor instead of replacing it?
In the vast majority of cases, yes. It costs a fraction of the price of a new floor, with none of the disruption of lifting the old one. Stone, terrazzo and quarry floors in particular respond extremely well to restoration. We will always tell you honestly if a floor is beyond saving rather than take the work on regardless.
Should I seal my grout and stone after cleaning?
We highly recommend it. Grout and natural stone are porous and will absorb spills and dirt if left unsealed. Roughly 90% of grout has never been sealed at all. A professional-grade impregnating sealer creates an invisible barrier that repels liquids and prevents staining, keeping the floor looking clean for far longer and making day-to-day maintenance much easier.
Do you offer a free demonstration?
Yes. We prefer to survey the floor and clean a small test area so you can see the achievable result on your own floor, in your own light, before you spend anything. It is the fairest way for both of us to know what the finished job will look like.
How long does the work take, and when can I walk on it?
A typical kitchen, hallway or bathroom clean takes 2–4 hours depending on size and condition; a full stone restoration with grinding and polishing takes longer and will be quoted with a clear time estimate. You can usually walk on the floor within 1–2 hours of cleaning. If a sealer or dressing has been applied, allow 24 hours before heavy traffic or wet mopping so it fully cures.
Do you offer discounts for multiple rooms?
Yes. The more areas cleaned in one visit, the better the rate we can offer. If you are having the kitchen floor done, it is well worth adding the hallway, utility, bathroom or conservatory at the same time for a discounted combined price.
