You walk into your bathroom and see marble that looks like the day it was installed. The dull spots are gone. The etches from years of soap and hard water have disappeared. Your shower walls actually shine again instead of looking cloudy and worn.
Steam cleaning reaches deep into the pores of your marble where regular cleaning can’t touch. It pulls out the buildup that’s been sitting there for years, making your surfaces look tired and old. Your backsplash marble gets that crisp, clean appearance back. Your shower walls stop looking like they need to be replaced.
The difference isn’t just cosmetic. Properly restored marble lasts longer, resists future staining better, and adds real value to your Hauppauge, NY home. You’re not just cleaning—you’re actually restoring the integrity of the stone itself.
We’ve been serving Long Island homeowners since 1998. We’re the company that gets called when other restoration attempts have failed or when homeowners need someone who actually understands historic marble and challenging restoration projects.
We’re owner-operated, which means you’re working directly with the people who have the expertise, not a crew that learned the basics last week. We were even featured in the New York Times back in 2001 for our restoration work—not because we paid for it, but because we consistently deliver results that other companies can’t match.
In Hauppauge, NY, where 54% of homes were built during the post-WWII boom from the 1940s through 1960s, we see a lot of original marble that just needs the right approach to bring it back to life. We know how to work with these older installations without causing damage, and we understand what it takes to make marble surfaces last for decades more.
First, we assess your marble surfaces to understand what we’re dealing with. Every restoration job is different, and we need to know the condition of your stone, what type of damage we’re addressing, and what finish you want when we’re done.
Next comes the actual steam cleaning process. Our equipment generates the heat and pressure needed to penetrate deep into the marble pores, pulling out years of buildup, soap scum, and staining that regular cleaning methods can’t touch. This isn’t surface-level work—we’re actually restoring the stone itself.
After the deep cleaning, we address any specific issues like etches, scratches, or chips. We can repair, re-polish, and refinish your marble to achieve whatever look you want—whether that’s a matte hone, semi-gloss, or high-gloss finish. Finally, we apply proper sealing to protect your newly restored surfaces from future damage and staining.
Most projects are completed within 1-2 days, and in many cases, your shower or other marble surfaces are ready for use the next day.

Our steam cleaning service covers all aspects of marble restoration. We handle marble wall restoration, shower wall restoration, backsplash marble cleaning, floor polishing, and even concrete restoration and polishing. We work on countertops, vanities, fireplace surrounds, and any other marble surfaces that need attention.
In Hauppauge, NY homes, we often see marble that’s been damaged by Long Island’s hard water, which leaves mineral deposits that regular cleaning can’t remove. Our steam cleaning process specifically addresses these local challenges, removing the buildup that makes marble look cloudy and worn.
We also handle the details that other companies skip—proper re-caulking, grout restoration, and sealing work that prevent future problems. Since many Hauppauge, NY homes have original marble installations from the 1950s and 1960s, we understand how to work with these older materials without causing damage. We’re not a cleaning company trying to do restoration work; we’re restoration specialists who use steam cleaning as one of our tools to get results that last.
Steam cleaning uses high-temperature vapor and pressure to penetrate deep into the marble’s pores, something regular cleaning methods simply can’t do. While surface cleaning might make your marble look temporarily better, steam cleaning actually removes the buildup that’s been accumulating for years—soap scum, mineral deposits, and staining that’s embedded in the stone itself.
Regular cleaning products, especially the harsh ones many homeowners try, can actually make marble problems worse by etching the surface or leaving residue. Our steam cleaning process removes this damage while restoring the marble’s natural properties. You’re not just getting a clean surface; you’re getting restored stone that looks and performs like it did when it was first installed.
Yes, but it depends on how deep the etching goes. Steam cleaning can remove surface-level etching and restore the marble’s natural shine, but deeper etches may require additional polishing and refinishing work beyond just the steam cleaning process.
What many homeowners don’t realize is that products like bathroom cleaners, vinegar, and even some natural cleaners contain acids that literally burn the marble surface, creating those dull, rough spots. Our steam cleaning process can reverse much of this damage, especially when combined with proper polishing techniques. We assess each situation individually because every marble surface and every type of damage requires a specific approach to get the best results.
Most marble shower steam cleaning projects take 1-2 days to complete, depending on the size of the shower and the extent of restoration needed. Simple steam cleaning and polishing can often be finished in a single day, while more complex restoration work might require additional time for proper curing and sealing.
The good news is that in most cases, your shower is ready for use the next day after we finish. We understand that disrupting your daily routine is inconvenient, so we work efficiently while still ensuring the job is done right. Unlike some restoration methods that require days of drying time, our steam cleaning process allows for relatively quick turnaround without sacrificing quality.
When done properly by experienced professionals, steam cleaning actually restores marble without causing damage. The key is understanding the right temperature, pressure, and technique for your specific type of marble and its current condition.
This is why working with a restoration specialist matters. We’ve been doing this since 1998 and understand how different types of marble respond to steam cleaning. We’re not a cleaning company trying to do restoration work—we’re restoration experts who use steam cleaning as one of our specialized tools. We know when steam cleaning alone is sufficient and when additional restoration work is needed to get the results you want without risking damage to your surfaces.
Absolutely. Steam cleaning works on all marble surfaces—backsplashes, countertops, shower walls, floors, and even fireplace surrounds. Each surface presents different challenges, but the steam cleaning process is effective for removing buildup, staining, and surface damage regardless of where your marble is located.
Backsplashes often have grease and cooking residue that regular cleaning can’t fully remove, while countertops deal with food stains and water spots. Steam cleaning addresses these specific problems while restoring the marble’s natural appearance. We also handle the detail work like re-caulking around backsplashes and proper sealing to prevent future staining, so you get a complete restoration rather than just a surface cleaning.
Steam cleaning is one of our specialized tools, but we offer complete marble restoration services. We handle polishing, refinishing, crack and chip repair, re-caulking, grout restoration, and sealing work. We also do concrete restoration and polishing, which many homeowners don’t realize can be restored to look like new.
Our focus is on historic and challenging restoration projects—the jobs that other companies can’t handle or won’t take on. We’re the team that gets called when previous restoration attempts have failed or when homeowners need someone who understands how to work with older marble installations. Steam cleaning is often part of a larger restoration process that brings your marble surfaces back to their original condition and keeps them looking that way for years to come.
