You’re dealing with marble that’s seen decades of use. The shower walls have soap scum buildup that won’t budge. Hard water spots cover your backsplash. Regular cleaners either don’t work or leave your marble looking worse than before.
Here’s what happens when we’re done: Your marble walls shine like the day they were installed. The shower looks spotless without streaks or film. Your backsplash marble reflects light properly again. You can actually see the natural veining and patterns that drew you to marble in the first place.
The difference is immediate and dramatic. No more embarrassment when guests use your bathroom. No more wondering if you need to replace everything. Just restored marble that looks and feels luxurious again.
We’ve been bringing century-old floors back to life since 1998. We’re the company that gets excited about the worst marble you’ve got—the more challenging the restoration, the better we perform.
What sets us apart in Amityville is our understanding of historic homes. Many properties here date back to the early 1900s, featuring original marble installations that require specialized knowledge. We’ve worked on Victorian and Colonial Revival homes throughout Long Island, and we know exactly how these older marble surfaces behave.
You work directly with us throughout your project. No subcontractors, no middlemen. When the New York Times featured our work in 2001, it was because of this hands-on approach that ensures every detail meets our standards.
First, we assess your marble surfaces to identify the specific issues—hard water deposits, soap scum, etching, or general dulling. Not all marble problems are the same, and cookie-cutter approaches often cause more damage than they fix.
Next, we use professional-grade vapor steam equipment that operates at controlled temperatures. Unlike household steam cleaners that can crack marble or cause spalling, our equipment removes buildup without thermal shock. We target soap scum, mineral deposits, and organic stains that regular cleaning can’t touch.
Then we address any etching or scratches revealed during cleaning. Steam cleaning often shows underlying damage that was hidden by buildup. We polish these areas to restore the uniform appearance across your entire surface.
Finally, we seal your marble with appropriate products that protect against future staining and make daily maintenance easier. You can use your restored surfaces the same day, and they’ll stay cleaner longer with proper care.

Our steam cleaning service includes comprehensive marble wall restoration for showers, backsplashes, and decorative walls throughout your Amityville home. We remove years of soap scum buildup, eliminate hard water stains, and restore the natural luster to dulled surfaces.
Amityville’s water conditions create specific challenges for marble surfaces. The mineral content in local water supplies leads to stubborn deposits that standard cleaners can’t remove safely. Our process addresses these local conditions with techniques developed specifically for Long Island’s water chemistry.
We also handle the grout restoration that often accompanies marble steam cleaning. Old grout lines harbor bacteria and detract from your marble’s appearance. We clean, repair, and seal grout to complement your restored marble surfaces.
Your historic home deserves restoration methods that respect its age and craftsmanship. We use dustless techniques that protect your furnishings and allow you to remain in your home during the process.
Professional steam cleaning is safe when done correctly, but household steam cleaners can seriously damage marble. The key is controlled temperature and proper technique.
Consumer steam cleaners reach temperatures over 250 degrees, which causes thermal expansion that can crack marble or cause surface spalling. Our professional equipment operates at precisely controlled temperatures that clean effectively without thermal shock.
We also understand that antique marble often has existing stress points or hairline cracks that require special attention. Before any steam cleaning, we inspect your surfaces to identify vulnerable areas and adjust our approach accordingly. This prevents turning minor issues into major damage.
Most marble wall steam cleaning projects in Amityville homes take 4-8 hours depending on the size and condition of the surfaces. Shower areas typically require 2-3 hours, while full bathroom wall restoration takes a full day.
The timeline depends on several factors: the extent of buildup, whether etching repair is needed, and how many surfaces require attention. Historic homes often have more intricate marble work that requires additional time for proper restoration.
We complete all work in a single visit whenever possible. You can use your restored surfaces the same day, though we recommend waiting 24 hours before applying any cleaning products to allow sealers to fully cure.
Yes, professional steam cleaning effectively removes hard water stains that regular cleaners can’t touch. Long Island’s mineral-rich water creates stubborn deposits that require specialized removal techniques.
Hard water stains on marble aren’t just surface buildup—minerals actually penetrate into the marble’s porous structure. Our steam cleaning process uses controlled heat and moisture to draw these minerals back out without using harsh acids that would etch the marble surface.
For severe mineral buildup, we may combine steam cleaning with gentle polishing compounds specifically formulated for natural stone. This removes the deposits while restoring the marble’s natural shine and protecting against future staining.
Absolutely. We regularly restore marble walls that have been etched or dulled by inappropriate household cleaners. Most damage from wrong products can be reversed with proper restoration techniques.
Common household cleaners like bathroom tile cleaners, bleach-based products, and vinegar-containing solutions create acid etching on marble surfaces. This appears as dull spots or white marks that can’t be cleaned away because they’re actually chemical burns in the stone.
Our restoration process removes these etched areas through controlled polishing that brings the marble back to its original finish. We then seal the surface to prevent future damage and provide you with proper maintenance guidelines to keep your marble looking perfect.
Yes, we provide ongoing maintenance programs specifically designed for historic marble installations in Amityville area homes. Antique marble requires different care than modern installations.
Historic marble often has unique characteristics—different mineral compositions, original installation methods, or aging patterns that affect how it should be maintained. Our maintenance plans account for these factors with customized cleaning schedules and appropriate products.
Typical maintenance includes professional cleaning every 6-12 months, immediate attention to any etching or staining, and periodic resealing as needed. This preventive approach keeps your marble looking beautiful while avoiding costly restoration work down the road.
Our comprehensive service includes steam cleaning, minor repair work, polishing, sealing, and grout restoration. We handle everything needed to restore your marble walls to their original condition.
The process starts with thorough assessment and testing to determine the best approach for your specific marble type and condition. We then perform the steam cleaning using professional equipment, address any revealed damage through polishing or repair, and finish with appropriate sealing.
We also include cleanup of the work area and disposal of any removed materials. You receive care instructions and product recommendations to maintain your restored surfaces. Most importantly, all work is performed by us personally—no subcontractors handling your valuable marble surfaces.
