You get marble that looks like it was installed yesterday, not decades ago. Steam cleaning removes years of buildup, etching, and damage that regular cleaning can’t touch.
Your shower walls regain their original luster. Backsplashes become centerpieces again instead of eyesores. Kitchen surfaces that once embarrassed you now make you proud to cook.
The difference isn’t just cosmetic. Properly restored marble lasts longer, resists future staining, and adds real value back to your historic Hempstead home.
High Definition Marble Restoration Inc has been bringing historic marble back to life since 1998. We’re the owner-operated team that gets called when other companies say “it can’t be done.”
Featured in the New York Times for our restoration work, we specialize in the challenging projects—100-year-old marble that needs expert hands, not just cleaning equipment. In Hempstead’s historic homes, where post-Civil War architecture meets modern living, we understand both the craftsmanship of the past and the demands of today.
You work directly with us throughout your project. No subcontractors, no surprises, no runaround.
We start with a thorough assessment of your marble’s condition, identifying etching, stains, and structural issues that need attention. You get a clear explanation of what we’ve found and exactly what we’ll do to fix it.
Our steam cleaning process uses specialized equipment that penetrates deep without harsh chemicals. We remove soap scum, hard water deposits, and years of buildup that’s been dulling your marble’s natural beauty.
After cleaning, we address any repairs—filling chips, polishing out scratches, and re-sealing surfaces to protect against future damage. You see the transformation happen in real time, and we don’t consider the job complete until you’re completely satisfied with the results.

Our steam cleaning service covers every marble surface in your Hempstead home. Shower walls that have lost their shine get restored to original condition. Backsplash marble regains the elegance that first caught your eye.
We handle the complex restoration work that Hempstead’s historic homes demand. Many of these century-old properties feature marble installations that require specialized knowledge—understanding how the stone was originally finished and what techniques will bring it back without damage.
Your service includes deep steam cleaning, stain removal, chip repair, and protective sealing. We also offer concrete restoration and polishing for homes that feature mixed materials. Each project gets the individual attention it deserves, because cookie-cutter approaches don’t work on historic properties.
Yes, but it depends on the severity of the etching. Light etching from everyday acidic exposure—like soap residue or hard water—responds well to our steam cleaning and polishing process.
Deeper etching requires more intensive restoration work. We assess each situation individually and explain exactly what’s possible. In most cases, we can restore marble to like-new condition, but we’re upfront about what you can expect.
The key is using the right technique for your specific marble type and damage level. That’s where our 26 years of experience with historic Long Island homes makes the difference.
Most shower restorations take 4-8 hours, depending on the size and condition of your marble. We work efficiently but never rush the process.
The timeline includes initial assessment, steam cleaning, any necessary repairs, and final sealing. We protect surrounding areas and clean up completely before we leave.
You can typically use your shower again within 24 hours, though we recommend waiting 48 hours before heavy use to allow sealers to fully cure. We’ll give you specific timing based on your project.
Steam cleaning is actually one of the safest restoration methods for historic marble. Unlike harsh chemical cleaners that can cause permanent damage, steam cleaning uses controlled heat and pressure to remove buildup without etching the surface.
We adjust our techniques based on the age and type of marble in your home. Hempstead’s historic properties often feature marble that was quarried and installed using different methods than modern stone, so we tailor our approach accordingly.
Our process preserves the integrity of original installations while removing decades of accumulated damage. It’s restoration, not replacement—which is exactly what historic homes need.
Regular cleaning companies typically use surface-level methods that can’t address deep staining, etching, or structural issues. Many actually damage marble by using inappropriate chemicals or abrasive techniques.
We’re restoration specialists, not cleaners. Our steam cleaning process penetrates deep into the marble’s pores, removing buildup that’s been accumulating for years. We also handle repairs—chip filling, crack sealing, and re-polishing—that cleaning companies can’t do.
Most importantly, we understand historic marble. We know how different types of stone respond to various treatments, and we have the specialized equipment and expertise to restore rather than just clean.
Yes, we stand behind our work completely. You get a clear explanation of what we’ll accomplish before we start, and we don’t consider the job finished until you’re satisfied with the results.
Our guarantee covers both the quality of our restoration work and the durability of our sealing. If you experience any issues related to our workmanship, we’ll return to address them at no additional cost.
We’ve been serving Long Island since 1998 because we do the job right the first time. Your satisfaction isn’t just guaranteed—it’s how we’ve built our reputation in the community.
Absolutely. Kitchen backsplashes take a beating from cooking oils, acidic foods, and daily cleaning. Over time, this creates etching, staining, and dullness that regular cleaning can’t fix.
Our steam cleaning process removes grease buildup and food stains that have penetrated the marble’s surface. We then polish out any etching and apply protective sealers that make future cleaning easier and prevent staining.
The result is a backsplash that looks like it was just installed, but with better protection against future damage. Many of our Hempstead clients are amazed at how much brighter their kitchens look after backsplash restoration.
