Damage Restoration Santa Barbara | Pacific Stone & Tile Care

Our damage restoration begins with a thorough assessment of the affected area. For water damage from appliance leaks, monsoon rains, or groundwater intrusion, we extract standing water, dry the underlying structure, and then clean, repair, and seal the stone or tile. We can restore travertine, marble, slate, and ceramic surfaces to their pre-damage condition, including re-polishing honed finishes and re-sealing grout to prevent mold and further moisture penetration.

Yes, we specialize in deep cleaning tile and grout using professional-grade products that remove hard water stains, soap scum, and dirt. For Santa Barbara’s hard water, we often recommend sealing grout after cleaning to protect against future staining. We work with ceramic, porcelain, Saltillo, and natural stone tiles in kitchens, bathrooms, and showers.

When a water heater leaks onto natural stone like marble or travertine, immediate action is needed to prevent etching or staining. We first extract the water and dry the area. Then we assess the stone for damage—etching, discoloration, or loosening. We can re-hone the surface to restore the finish and apply a penetrating sealer to protect the stone from future moisture. We also check the subfloor and adjacent tile for water intrusion to ensure complete restoration.
