Stone Cleaning in Montecito
Stone Cleaning for Home and Business Owners
We bring natural stone cleaning to Montecito homes and businesses: marble foyers, limestone and travertine patios, pool decks, granite counters and stone showers. Each stone gets products made for it, so salt residue, hard water spots and ground-in dirt come off without etching or dulling the surface. Honing, polishing and a protective treatment are available afterward. Family-owned since 1978.
- Etch Mark RemovalAcid etch marks are worked out of the stone itself with honing and shining powders rather than hidden under a coating.
- Grout Sealing AvailableOnce a stone shower or floor is clean, we can seal the grout so new stains have a harder time setting in.
- Counters and FloorsGranite and marble counters are renewed with the same care as stone floors, using products chosen for that stone.
Some rust removers and toilet bowl cleaners contain trace hydrofluoric acid, which can damage every type of stone, including granite and quartzite.

The surfaces next to stone
Natural stone is one of several hard floors. Tile and hardwood need different methods, and stone outside gets pressure washed.
Stone rarely covers a whole house. A marble entry often gives way to ceramic or porcelain in the kitchen and baths, and there tile and grout cleaning works each joint over with steam at high pressure, adding color sealing if you want it. In the living areas, hardwood floor cleaning uses a finish-safe process that lifts old polish and restores the wood's natural color.
Outdoor stone on patios, steps and pool decks needs a different approach than a polished floor indoors. Pressure washing handles those areas with a surface cleaner, so the stone sees an even spray instead of a narrow jet that can scar it. Concrete driveways and walkways nearby can take a stronger setting, since pressure and detergent are adjusted for every surface.

Outdoor Stone
Patios, Pool Decks and Entries in Full Sun
Between the Santa Ynez Mountains and the Pacific, the stone outside a Montecito home, on limestone and travertine patios, pool decks, steps and entries, gets salt air and full sun most of the year. Salt and moisture in the air settle into porous stone and slowly etch and stain it, and the sun fades the color and dries out the sealer that was supposed to protect it.
Outdoor stone gets identified before anything is applied, because limestone, travertine and sandstone react differently to the same product. We clean with solutions made for the stone, then a protective treatment can go back on. Concrete walks and drives are a pressure washing job, not a stone one.

Excellent service. Cannot be happier with their work. David Isaac came to do an assessment and was very professional and efficient. He sent me a quote on the same day.
The Kelly Cleaning team was outstanding! Our tenants with young children just vacated last week and it was left in rough condition! This wonderful team of 9 spent two days returning my property to near perfect condition.
Edgar and Randy did an amazing job! The carpet was in a rental and was a mess. We thought we would TRY cleaning it but didn't think it could come clean. They took their time and made it like new!

Can you clean a limestone patio or pool deck?
Yes. Patios, pool decks, steps and entries are cleaned with products matched to the stone. The concrete drive next to them goes to our Montecito pressure washing crew.
Will cleaning remove etch marks from a marble floor?
Cleaning will not, but our honing and polishing can. Scratches and wear on marble, limestone, travertine and terrazzo can be removed.
Does the sun really wear out stone sealer?
Yes. Sun exposure fades stone and dries out sealers, which is why outdoor stone here needs resealing sooner than indoor stone.
Which cleaners should stay off marble in a home?
Anything acidic, including vinegar, citrus and many bathroom cleaners, because marble etches on contact with acid.
Do you clean quartz and quartzite counters in Montecito?
Yes. Quartz is engineered and quartzite is natural stone, and each is cleaned the way its material needs.
