Your guests will notice the difference immediately. More importantly, you’ll know your marble walls are properly maintained and contributing to your home’s value rather than detracting from it.
High Definition Marble Restoration Inc has been serving Wantagh homeowners since 1998, specializing in the challenging work that other contractors avoid. We were even featured in the New York Times for our expertise in historic stone restoration.
As an owner-operated business, every project receives direct oversight from experienced craftsmen who understand the unique challenges of Wantagh’s older homes. Many properties in the area date back to the 1940s and 1950s, featuring original marble installations that require specialized knowledge to restore properly.
Our reputation is built on tackling complex restoration projects that preserve the character and value of Nassau County’s historic properties.
First, we conduct a thorough assessment of your marble walls, identifying specific damage patterns, staining, and structural issues. This evaluation determines the exact restoration approach needed for your particular stone and situation.
The restoration begins with careful cleaning using specialized, pH-balanced products that remove buildup without damaging the marble surface. Any chips, cracks, or deep scratches are repaired using professional-grade materials and techniques.
Next comes our multi-step polishing process that removes etching and restores the marble’s natural shine and clarity. The final step involves applying a protective sealer that guards against future staining and chemical damage.
Throughout the process, your furniture and surrounding areas are protected, and the work is completed with minimal disruption to your daily routine.

Our service includes comprehensive restoration for all types of marble walls: shower surrounds, kitchen backsplashes, bathroom vanity walls, and decorative wall features. Each surface receives treatment specific to its location and usage patterns.
Wantagh’s older homes often feature original marble installations that have endured decades of use and cleaning with inappropriate products. Our restoration process addresses common issues like soap scum buildup in showers, grease stains on kitchen walls, and water damage from poor ventilation.
We also handle the unique challenges of Nassau County’s hard water, which creates mineral deposits that regular cleaning cannot remove. Special attention is paid to grout lines, caulking, and the transition areas where marble meets other materials.
All work includes a protective sealing treatment designed to withstand the specific environmental conditions found in Long Island homes, from humid summers to harsh winter conditions.
Marble wall restoration costs vary significantly based on the extent of damage, wall size, and type of marble involved. Minor polishing and sealing typically runs $5-15 per square foot, while comprehensive restoration including repair work ranges from $15-30 per square foot.
The investment is substantially less than replacement, which often exceeds $50-100 per square foot when you factor in removal, disposal, and new installation. Most Wantagh homeowners find that restoration costs 60-80% less than replacement while achieving superior results.

Yes, marble shower walls can be fully restored in place without removal or replacement. Our process involves specialized techniques that address water damage, soap scum buildup, hard water stains, and mold issues while the walls remain installed.
The restoration includes deep cleaning, repair of any chips or cracks, polishing to remove etching and dullness, and application of a penetrating sealer designed for wet environments. Grout and caulking are also refreshed as needed.
This approach saves thousands compared to demolition and replacement while achieving like-new results. The work is completed with minimal disruption, and most shower restorations are finished within 1-2 days.
Most marble wall restoration projects in Wantagh are completed within 1-3 days, depending on the wall size and condition. Small bathroom projects typically take one full day, while larger kitchen backsplashes or multiple wall areas may require 2-3 days.
The timeline includes assessment, cleaning, any necessary repairs, multi-step polishing, and sealing. Each step must cure properly before proceeding, which affects the overall schedule but ensures lasting results.
Weather and humidity can impact drying times, particularly during Long Island’s humid summer months. We schedule work to accommodate these conditions and provide realistic timelines during the initial consultation.
Historic marble restoration is actually one of our specialties. We have extensive experience with marble installations from the 1940s, 1950s, and even earlier periods common in Wantagh’s older homes.
Older marble often presents unique challenges including softer stone composition, unusual dimensions, and decades of improper cleaning damage. Our restoration approach is carefully tailored to preserve the original character while addressing accumulated damage.
In many cases, historic marble can be restored to better condition than when originally installed, thanks to modern sealing technology and proper maintenance techniques. Our goal is always preservation rather than replacement of these valuable original features.
Yes, all our marble wall restoration work comes with a comprehensive warranty covering both workmanship and materials. The specific warranty terms depend on the type of restoration performed and the condition of the original marble.
Polishing and sealing work typically carries a 2-3 year warranty against defects, while repair work is warranted for the life of the installation under normal use conditions. The warranty covers issues like seal failure, repair separation, or finish degradation.
As an owner-operated business, we stand behind every project with direct accountability. Any warranty issues are addressed promptly by the same craftsmen who performed the original work, ensuring consistent quality and service.
Cleaning removes surface dirt and buildup but cannot address etching, scratches, stains that have penetrated the stone, or structural damage. Restoration involves repairing the marble surface itself through grinding, honing, and polishing processes.
Many homeowners try cleaning first with store-bought products, but acidic cleaners actually cause more etching damage to marble. Our professional restoration reverses this damage by removing the affected surface layer and revealing fresh, undamaged marble underneath.
Restoration also includes protective sealing that prevents future damage, while cleaning provides no long-term protection. The result is marble walls that not only look better than cleaning can achieve but are also protected against future problems.
