You walk into your bathroom and the marble walls gleam like they did the day they were installed. No more dull spots from soap scum or water stains. No more embarrassing etching from cleaning products that promised to help but made things worse.
The shower walls that once looked tired and discolored now reflect light beautifully. Your backsplash marble catches the eye for all the right reasons. Every surface feels smooth to the touch, not rough or pitted like it was before.
This is what happens when steam cleaning and proper restoration techniques meet decades of experience. Your marble doesn’t just get clean—it gets restored to the condition you remember, or better than you ever imagined possible.
We’ve been restoring natural stone surfaces since 1998. We’re not just another cleaning company—we specialize in the challenging work that others walk away from.
The older and more damaged your marble, the more we want to work on it. Historic homes throughout Long Island trust us with their century-old floors and complex restoration projects because we understand what these materials need.
Featured in the New York Times for our restoration expertise, we bring owner-operator involvement to every project. You work directly with people who know stone, not a crew that’s guessing their way through your valuable surfaces.
First, we evaluate your marble to understand what’s causing the problems. Steam damage, etching from acidic cleaners, or years of buildup all require different approaches.
We start with our steam cleaning process that removes embedded dirt and organisms without harsh chemicals that damage stone. This isn’t the same as regular cleaning—we’re extracting what’s been absorbed into the marble itself.
Next comes the restoration work. We grind and hone surfaces to remove etching and scratches, then polish to bring back the natural shine. For marble walls restoration and shower areas, we address the humidity issues that caused problems in the first place.
Finally, we seal and protect the restored surfaces so they stay beautiful longer. You get clear instructions on maintaining what we’ve restored, plus direct access to us if questions come up later.

Our steam cleaning service includes complete evaluation of all marble surfaces, not just the obvious problem areas. We identify issues you might not have noticed yet but will cause problems later.
Ocean Beach’s coastal environment creates unique challenges for marble. Salt air, humidity, and sand tracked in from the beach all contribute to surface damage. We address these local factors as part of every restoration project.
You get marble walls restoration that handles both the cleaning and the underlying damage. Shower wall restoration that stops recurring problems. Backsplash marble work that brings back the original color and pattern.
We also include concrete restoration and polishing for areas where marble connects to other surfaces. Every project gets our full attention because we know how these materials work together in your specific environment.
Steam cleaning penetrates deep into marble pores to extract embedded dirt, soap residue, and organic matter that regular cleaning can’t reach. Standard cleaning products often contain acids that actually etch marble surfaces, making them look worse over time.
Our steam process uses controlled heat and moisture to lift contaminants without chemicals. This is especially important for marble walls in showers and bathrooms where soap scum and body oils have been absorbed into the stone over months or years.
The difference is immediately visible—surfaces that looked permanently stained or discolored return to their original appearance. More importantly, steam cleaning prepares the marble for proper restoration work that regular cleaning makes impossible.
Most marble damage that looks permanent actually isn’t. Etching from acidic cleaners, deep stains, and even scratches can be removed through proper grinding and honing techniques.
We’ve restored marble walls that homeowners thought needed complete replacement. The key is understanding how deep the damage goes and using the right sequence of restoration steps. Surface etching comes out with careful polishing. Deeper issues require grinding down to undamaged marble, then rebuilding the finish.
Ocean Beach’s coastal environment can make marble look worse than it actually is. Salt deposits and mineral buildup often hide marble that’s in much better condition underneath. We remove these layers to reveal the original stone, then restore it to proper condition.
Most residential steam cleaning projects take one to two days, depending on the size of the area and extent of restoration needed. Simple cleaning and polishing might be completed in a single day, while full restoration with grinding and honing requires additional time.
We work efficiently but never rush the process. Marble restoration done wrong creates bigger problems than what you started with. Each step needs proper time to cure and set before moving to the next phase.
You’ll know the timeline upfront. We provide detailed estimates that break down each phase of work so you can plan accordingly. Most customers are surprised how quickly we can transform surfaces they thought were beyond help.
Properly restored marble is much easier to maintain than damaged stone. You’ll use pH-neutral cleaners designed for natural stone—no more harsh chemicals that cause etching and damage.
Daily maintenance involves wiping surfaces with clean water and drying them completely. Weekly cleaning uses stone-safe products that we recommend based on your specific marble type and finish.
Professional maintenance depends on use and environment. High-traffic areas might need professional attention annually, while decorative surfaces can go several years between services. We provide specific schedules based on your situation and local conditions like Ocean Beach’s salt air and humidity.
Historic marble restoration is actually our specialty. The older and more challenging the project, the better we like it. We’ve worked on century-old floors and complex installations that other companies won’t touch.
Historic marble often has different properties than modern stone. It may be softer, more porous, or have unique mineral compositions that require specialized techniques. We understand these differences and adjust our approach accordingly.
Many historic homes in the Long Island area have marble that’s been damaged by decades of improper cleaning and maintenance. We can usually restore these surfaces to better condition than they’ve been in for generations, while preserving their historic character and value.
Shower restoration is one of our most common services. Marble in wet areas faces constant challenges from soap, shampoo, hard water, and humidity—especially in coastal areas like Ocean Beach.
We address both the visible damage and the underlying moisture issues that cause ongoing problems. This includes proper sealing, ventilation assessment, and sometimes updating caulking and waterproofing systems.
The goal is shower walls that stay beautiful longer and resist the humidity and chemical exposure that damaged them originally. We also provide specific care instructions for maintaining marble in wet environments so your restoration lasts as long as possible.
