Stone restoration in Kensington & Chelsea

Kensington, Chelsea and Knightsbridge contain some of London's finest residential stonework, and our work across RBKC is broad. Belgravia stucco townhouses with Portland limestone steps and Carrara marble hallways. Victorian mansion blocks with original marble staircases and period terrazzo landings. Contemporary architect-led interiors in Chelsea and Holland Park using large-format Calacatta islands, honed limestone wet rooms, and book-matched bathroom slabs. Each property type has its own restoration logic, which is why we survey every RBKC project in person before we quote.

Our SW1, SW3, SW7 and W8 workload tends to concentrate on four patterns. Marble staircase restoration in mansion blocks and townhouses, where decades of foot traffic on a hand-rail edge have rounded the nose and worn through the polish. We rebuild the profile, hone, polish, and re-establish a consistent finish step to step. Honed limestone bathroom restoration, removing etch rings around basins and shower drains, lifting hard water staining, and re-honing where the original supplier's finish has worn unevenly. Period terrazzo restoration in original hallways and stair landings, including crack stitching, chip fills matched to existing aggregate, and a hand-polish back to factory level. And kitchen worktop refinishing on full-slab Calacatta, Statuario and honed French limestone in family kitchens, with careful attention to existing book-matched joins.

We are used to the practical constraints of RBKC. Leasehold managing agents, lift access restrictions, porter schedules, restricted noise hours, and the dust-free protocols required when residents occupy adjacent flats. Every job is run with full diamond extraction, complete floor and furniture protection across approach routes, and a single in-house crew on site. Marius is on every project in person.

We are fully insured (£2M public liability, £10M employers, Hiscox) and carry the certification set required by managing agents across the borough. Local client and managing-agent references available on request.
