Slate

Slate is a unique metamorphic rock that originates from shale, formed through intense pressure and heat. It is characterized by its grain and natural cleavage, allowing it to be split into thin sheets. In specification sheets, slates for interior use are marked an "I" while those suitable for exterior use are labeled with an "E." At ASR, our cleaning methods for existing slate tiles vary based on their condition and previous sealers, utilizing light abrasives and specialized cleaning solutions effectively remove dirt and debris.

Slate Cleaning & Restoration Services

Slate is a beautiful and durable natural stone—but it requires expert care to maintain its appearance and longevity. At ASR, our skilled technicians specialize in cleaning, restoring, and protecting slate surfaces, from tile floors to countertops.

 

Understanding Slate

Slate is a porous material available in a variety of textures, including smooth finishes and cleft finishes with a more rugged surface. Because of its porous nature, slate must be properly cleaned and sealed after installation to prevent staining and deterioration.

 

Custom Finishing Options

Slate can be finished in several ways depending on your desired look:

  • Color enhancers to deepen natural tones

  • Topical coatings like wax for added shine

  • Penetrating sealers for long-lasting protection

Whether you prefer a glossy, matte, or low-luster finish, ASR can deliver the result you envision. We’ll also guide you on how to properly maintain your slate surfaces to keep them looking their best.
