Travertine Cleaning & Polishing in Studio City, CA

Studio City homes blend luxury, comfort, and a warm natural aesthetic—making travertine a popular choice for floors, showers, and countertops. But with daily use, travertine can become dull, scratched, uneven, or deeply soiled. At Sureshine Care and Restoration Services, Inc., we specialize in
travertine cleaning and polishing designed to restore clarity, smoothness, and natural beauty.

Why Travertine Needs Professional Care

  • Soil absorption — Travertine is naturally porous and accumulates grime over time.
  • Etching — Acidic spills can dull or mark the surface.
  • Scratches — Daily foot traffic, pets, and furniture wear down the finish.
  • Uneven tiles — Lippage can develop, creating edges that catch dirt or feel rough.
  • Soap film & hard water — Especially common in Studio City bathrooms and showers.

Our Travertine Cleaning & Polishing Process

  1. Inspection — We evaluate the stone, grout, finish, and soil level.
  2. Deep Cleaning — Our team uses pressure, heat, and safe stone cleaners to remove buildup.
  3. Honing — Smooths scratches, etches, and surface wear.
  4. Polishing — Restores a matte, satin, or high-polish finish depending on your preference.
  5. Sealing — We apply a premium sealer to protect against soil and make maintenance easier.
  6. Detailing — Edges, transitions, and grout lines receive finishing touches for a uniform look.
