We arrived to the Kaanapali, Maui, Hawaii luxury villa in the morning. The travertine countertops in the master and guest bathrooms had a mild to moderate amount of wear and tear. Lance performed a 3 step deep cleaning, polish and reseal to remove the water deposits and light etching and wear on the travertine surface. Bathroom and kitchen counters often have waterspotting and calcium buildup around the faucets and sink edges.
This photo above shows the before and after of the polishing. The travertine was already cleaned and prepared. The left is before polishing and the right is after the polishing. Notice the detail in the reflection of the light fixture comparing the unpolished left side to the polished right side.
Most clients opt to deep clean and reseal for protection. It removes all the buildup that won't come out with daily cleaning. And once the surface is cleaned and prepared, it can be resealed to protect and preserve the life of the natural stone.
This particular client opted for a high polish finish, that added another step to the process. It looked shiny and new when the clean, polish and sealing were complete.
