Oh my oh my!  It looks like a do it by hand and tape it all off project.  For me to get on my hands and knees that much, they better be ready to pay me a pretty penny. 

We just had an issue similar to this and we had to strip the whole thing and start from scratch like a full on restoration. 

What kind of finish does the homeowner want on the travertine?

I got a client who just built a new home. They installed 1100 sq ft of travertine combined with wood trim (see photo).  They bought the materials through or from Direct Buy and used Direct Buy’s installation contractor.  Anyway …… the installer didn’t have a clue they used a sponge to  apply Aqua Mix Enrich N Seal and never cleaned up the residue. According to the home owner the installer never cleaned the floor and they can see grout and dirt under the sealer/enhancer as well as foot prints. The owner wants the floor fixed ………. Any ideas on how to work around the wood trim, pricing, ect ? I was thinking about having the wood trim and baseboards removed. The trim has sealer/enhancer on it and I think it would cost less to replace the trim than pay me to work around it. I’ll probably have to level, fill and hone the floor. I was thinking about skipping from area - area with a 13 “ Hawk or would  a DS 301 Planetary Polisher be more effective? Any ideas on pricing ?  Thanks in advance for any help …..
