Your marble walls don’t have to stay stained, etched, or dull. When we restore your surfaces, you get marble that looks like it did when first installed—with modern protection that prevents future damage.
Hard water stains from Long Island wells disappear completely. Soap scum buildup that’s accumulated over years gets removed down to the original stone. Those stubborn white mineral deposits that no cleaner can touch? Gone for good.
Your shower walls, bathroom surfaces, and marble backsplashes regain their original luster and depth. More importantly, they stay that way because we seal them properly against future deterioration.
We’ve been bringing Long Island’s historic marble back to life for over 25 years. We’re owner-operators, which means you deal directly with the craftsmen doing the work—no sales teams, no subcontractors, no surprises.
The Garden City Hotel has trusted us exclusively for their marble care for 16+ years. The New York Times featured our restoration work in 2001. When other companies say a job is too difficult, that’s usually when we get the call.
Yaphank’s history stretches back to 1726 with Captain Robinson’s Dutch Colonial house, and many homes here contain original marble from the 1960s through 1980s. We understand these historic materials and the specific challenges Long Island’s water and climate create for natural stone.
First, we evaluate your marble walls to identify specific damage—hard water etching, soap scum penetration, acidic cleaner damage, or structural issues. We explain exactly what we found and what’s needed to fix it permanently, not just temporarily.
Next comes the actual restoration work. We use specialized diamond grinding equipment to remove damaged stone layers, then progress through increasingly fine grits to restore the original finish. For cracks or chips, we make repairs before the final polishing stages.
Finally, we seal your marble with commercial-grade protectants that resist staining and etching. This isn’t surface cleaning—it’s complete restoration that addresses root causes. You can use your shower the next day, and results last for years without deterioration.

Our marble walls restoration includes grinding, honing, polishing, crack repair, chip repair, and professional sealing. We restore shower walls, backsplashes, bathroom walls, and any marble surface showing age or damage.
Yaphank’s colonial and ranch-style homes often feature original marble installations from the 1970s and 1980s when quality was prioritized over cost. These surfaces were built to last centuries, but decades of Long Island’s mineral-rich well water and improper cleaning products have created specific restoration challenges.
We restore your marble to original condition—or better. Our process removes accumulated damage while applying modern protective treatments that weren’t available during original installation. You get surfaces that look new but retain the character and superior quality of the original stone.
Most marble walls restoration projects take 1-2 days to complete, depending on the extent of damage and total square footage being restored.
Typical shower wall restoration usually finishes in one day, and you can use your shower the next morning. Larger projects like complete bathroom marble restoration might require two days, but we work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine.
We provide a detailed timeline during our free estimate, so you know exactly what to expect before we begin work. No surprises, no extended downtime.
Yes, we specialize in permanently removing hard water stains and mineral deposits that Long Island’s well water creates on marble surfaces. Regular cleaners can’t handle these deposits because they’ve actually penetrated into the stone.
Hard water stains occur when dissolved minerals get absorbed into marble’s porous surface, then crystallize and expand, creating white buildup and surface damage. Our restoration process mechanically removes both surface deposits and underlying mineral penetration.
After restoration, we seal your marble with products specifically designed to resist mineral absorption, preventing future hard water staining from recurring. It’s a permanent solution, not a temporary fix.
Marble cleaning addresses surface dirt and soap residue, while marble restoration repairs actual structural damage to the stone itself. If your marble has etching, permanent stains, dull spots, or rough texture, cleaning won’t fix these problems.
Many cleaning companies use acidic or alkaline products that actually worsen marble damage over time. Our restoration process uses mechanical methods—diamond grinding and progressive polishing—to physically remove damaged stone layers and reveal fresh marble underneath.
The result is marble that looks, feels, and performs like new stone, not just temporarily clean surfaces that will show the same problems again within weeks.
Historic marble restoration is exactly what we do best. We’ve been restoring marble in Long Island’s older homes since 1998, and we understand the unique characteristics of vintage installations that modern contractors often struggle with.
Yaphank has many homes with marble installations dating back 40-50 years, when natural stone quality was exceptional but installation and sealing methods were less advanced. These older marbles are often superior to modern materials but require specialized restoration techniques.
We use methods that respect original craftsmanship while applying current protective technology. Your historic marble gets proper restoration that preserves its character while adding decades of future durability.
Marble walls restoration costs depend on damage severity, total area, and specific services required. We provide free, itemized estimates that detail exactly what work is needed and associated costs.
Most shower wall restoration projects represent a significant but worthwhile investment, typically costing much less than marble replacement while often adding more value to your home than the restoration expense.
We offer completely transparent pricing with no hidden fees or surprise charges. During our free estimate, all costs are explained upfront so you can make an informed decision about your marble restoration investment.
Yes, we regularly restore marble that’s been damaged by acidic bathroom cleaners, bleach, or other inappropriate cleaning products. This damage, called etching, creates permanent dull spots and surface roughness that gets progressively worse over time.
Etching occurs when acidic substances chemically dissolve marble’s calcium carbonate surface, creating microscopic pitting that can’t be reversed with more cleaning. Many homeowners unknowingly use products like tile cleaners or mildew removers that are far too aggressive for natural stone.
Our restoration process removes the entire etched layer through controlled grinding, then polishes the marble back to its original smooth finish. We also provide guidance on proper marble-safe cleaning methods to prevent future damage.
