Stone Cleaning in Ventura
Stone Cleaning for Homes and Businesses
Kelly Cleaning handles natural stone cleaning for homes and businesses in Ventura: granite, marble, travertine, slate, limestone and terrazzo, on countertops, floors, showers and patios. Every job starts by identifying the stone, so soap scum, hard water spots and ground-in dirt come off without harming it. Honing, polishing and grout sealing are available, and most Ventura jobs get a same-week walkthrough. Family-owned since 1978.
- 1Seven Stone TypesGranite, marble and soapstone are three of the seven stones we clean, and no two react the same way to cleaning products.
- 2Sealing and ConditioningGranite holds up to scratches yet benefits from sealing now and then, and soapstone, which resists stains, is conditioned instead.
- 3Soap Scum RemovalHard water marks and soap scum are what we see most on stone counters and shower walls.
Sealing natural stone makes it more stain resistant, not stain proof.

The surfaces next to stone
Stone often shares the house with tile and wood floors, and outdoor stone and pavers are handled with pressure washing instead.
Stone counters and showers usually sit beside ceramic or porcelain tile, and the grout between them collects the worst grime. Those lines get high-pressure steam through tile and grout cleaning, with color sealing available as a follow-up step. Hardwood floor cleaning covers the rooms where the stone stops, lifting old polish without harming the finish once the type of finish has been identified.
Outdoor stone is a different job. Pressure washing handles patios, steps and pool decks, with a surface cleaner spreading the spray evenly and the setting picked so grime lifts without etching the stone. Slate collects dirt in its crevices and sandstone absorbs water and stains easily, so the outdoor pieces need the pressure and detergent matched to them.

Original Terrazzo, Newer Granite Kitchens and Coastal Travertine
Ventura’s stone varies with the age of the house. Older homes off Poli Street and the Avenue still have original terrazzo, newer construction near Telephone Road leans toward granite kitchens, and coastal properties near Pierpont have travertine pool decks that take salt from the air. Those stones wear in different ways, and the cleaning method changes with them.
Near the coast, moisture, salt in the air and wind-blown grit settle onto stone every day and slowly wear down the finish. Add foot traffic and spills, and a polished floor or patio loses its shine. We clean the stone floors, counters and patios in Ventura businesses as well as homes.

Before You Scrub
Why Household Cleaners Etch Marble and Travertine
Many stone problems start with a household cleaner. Vinegar and lemon-based sprays are acidic enough to etch polished marble, travertine and limestone on contact, leaving a dull, rough patch that no amount of wiping will fix. Abrasive pads strip the polish and leave fine scratches where dirt collects, and bleach or ammonia can discolor darker granite and slate.
Sealing over leftover cleaner is the other common mistake, because the residue gets trapped under the sealer and clouds the stone. So our process begins with identifying the exact stone before anything touches the surface. Then stains are treated directly, with products matched to the material.
- Vinegar and Lemonetch calcium-based stone
- Abrasive Padsscratch polished finishes
- Bleach and Ammoniadiscolor dark granite and slate
- Sealing Over Residueclouds the stone
- Stone Identified Firstbefore anything touches it
- Stains Treated Directlywith stone-safe products
Honing and Sealing
Honing, Polishing and Sealing Stone
Etching is damage to the stone itself, not a stain sitting on top, so it does not wipe off or polish out by hand. Scratches, wear and etch marks on marble, limestone, travertine and terrazzo are worked out with our honing, polishing and shining powders, which level the surface and bring the finish back on floors and counters alike.
Some stone needs protection afterward. Granite holds up to scratches but wants occasional sealing, sandstone soaks up water and stains, and soapstone resists stains but benefits from conditioning. Grout sealing is available to keep new stains out of the joints.

- Polishingbrings the finish back
- Shining Powdersthe final pass
- Etch Marksworked out, not covered up
- Granite Sealingoccasional, as needed

Do you clean travertine pool decks near the coast?
Yes. We clean stone patios and pool decks, where salt in the air, moisture and grit wear down the finish.
What should I not use on natural stone in my home?
Skip vinegar and lemon-based sprays on marble, travertine and limestone, abrasive pads on polished finishes, and bleach or ammonia on colored stone.
Can you restore the original terrazzo in an older house?
Terrazzo responds to the same honing and polishing process we use on marble and travertine, which takes out scratches and wear.
Do you seal stone and grout?
Grout sealing is available after cleaning, and the stone itself is sealed when it needs it. Ceramic and porcelain go through our tile and grout cleaning instead.

Usually within the week, since crews leave from our Donlon Street headquarters on the east side of the city. Stone care is one part of what we clean across Ventura.
