Your shower walls become easy to clean again. Your backsplash marble shines like the day it was installed. Most importantly, you protect a valuable investment that can increase your property value by up to 25%.
High Definition Marble Restoration Inc has been restoring natural stone on Long Island since 1998. We’re the company that gets excited about the challenging projects – the older the marble, the better.
As an owner-operated business, you work directly with experts who understand Long Island’s historic properties. We’ve restored marble in century-old homes across Nassau and Suffolk Counties, and our work was even featured in the New York Times.
Unlike larger companies that subcontract work, every project gets our direct attention. We know Long Island homeowners value craftsmanship and reliability – that’s exactly what we deliver.
First, we assess your marble walls to identify the specific issues – whether it’s etching from cleaning products, cracks from settling, or dullness from years of use. Every marble surface tells a story, and we read it carefully.
Next comes the restoration process. We use specialized grinding and honing techniques to remove surface damage, followed by polishing to restore the original finish. For cracks or chips, we use color-matched repair compounds that blend seamlessly.
Finally, we seal and protect the restored surface. This isn’t just about making it look good today – it’s about preventing future damage and making maintenance easier. You get clear instructions on proper care, plus our guidance on when to schedule maintenance visits.

Your marble walls restoration covers everything needed to bring surfaces back to original condition. We handle shower walls, kitchen backsplashes, bathroom walls, and historic marble installations throughout your Long Island property.
The service includes deep cleaning to remove soap scum and hard water deposits, professional grinding and honing to eliminate scratches and etches, crack and chip repair with color-matched materials, and protective sealing to prevent future staining.
For Long Island homeowners, this matters because our humid climate and hard water create specific challenges for marble surfaces. We understand these local conditions and adjust our techniques accordingly. Your restored marble walls will withstand the humidity levels common in Nassau and Suffolk County homes while maintaining their beauty for years to come.
Most marble wall restoration projects in Islip take 1-3 days depending on the size and condition of the surfaces. A typical bathroom with marble shower walls usually takes 1-2 days, while larger projects like kitchen backsplashes or multiple rooms may take longer.
The timeline depends on several factors: the extent of damage, the type of finish you want, and whether we’re doing additional services like crack repair or re-grouting. We always provide a clear timeline with your free estimate so you can plan accordingly.
We work efficiently because we understand Long Island homeowners don’t want their bathrooms or kitchens out of commission longer than necessary. Our owner-operated approach means we’re focused on your project from start to finish.
Marble shower walls lose their shine due to several common issues specific to Long Island homes. Hard water deposits build up over time, creating that cloudy appearance. Soap scum combines with minerals in the water to create stubborn stains that regular cleaning can’t remove.
The biggest culprit is using the wrong cleaning products. Many household cleaners are acidic and actually etch the marble surface, creating permanent dull spots. This is especially problematic in humid environments like Long Island, where moisture sits on surfaces longer.
Steam from hot showers also plays a role. The constant cycle of heating and cooling, combined with personal care products in the air, creates the perfect environment for buildup and even mold growth in the microscopic pores of the marble.
Absolutely. Professional restoration can bring marble walls back to their original beauty without the massive expense of replacement. We’ve restored marble that homeowners thought was beyond saving – walls that were heavily stained, etched, or even cracked.
The key is using the right techniques and equipment. We use specialized grinding and honing processes that remove damaged surface layers while preserving the integrity of the marble underneath. For more severe damage like cracks or chips, we use color-matched repair compounds that blend seamlessly with the original stone.
Replacement costs for marble walls can run $70-190 per square foot on Long Island, while professional restoration costs a fraction of that. Plus, you keep the original character of your marble, which is especially important in historic Long Island homes where the marble may be irreplaceable.
For marble shower walls and high-humidity areas on Long Island, we recommend professional cleaning and maintenance every 6-12 months. The humid climate here accelerates the buildup of soap scum, hard water deposits, and potential mold growth in marble’s natural pores.
Kitchen backsplash marble typically needs attention every 12-18 months, depending on cooking frequency and the type of cleaning products used. High-traffic areas or walls exposed to acidic substances may need more frequent care.
The good news is that regular maintenance prevents major restoration work. A professional cleaning and re-sealing every year costs much less than waiting until the marble is severely damaged and needs full restoration. We can set up a maintenance schedule that keeps your marble walls looking their best year-round.
Cleaning removes surface dirt, soap scum, and basic stains, but it can’t fix etching, scratches, or restore lost shine. Think of cleaning as maintenance – it keeps your marble looking decent but doesn’t address underlying damage.
Restoration goes much deeper. We use specialized grinding and honing techniques to actually remove damaged surface layers, eliminating etches, scratches, and dull spots permanently. Then we polish the marble to restore its original luster and apply protective sealers.
The difference is dramatic. After professional restoration, your marble walls will have that mirror-like shine and smooth feel they had when first installed. Regular cleaning just can’t achieve that level of renewal, especially on Long Island where hard water and humidity create ongoing challenges for marble surfaces.
This is actually our specialty. We’ve been restoring historic marble in Long Island homes since 1998, and the older and more challenging the project, the better we like it. Many of the marble installations in century-old Long Island homes are irreplaceable, so restoration is often the only viable option.
Historic marble requires different techniques than modern stone. We understand the composition and characteristics of older marble varieties and adjust our approach accordingly. We’ve worked on marble from the early 1900s that other companies said couldn’t be saved.
Our work on historic properties has even been featured in the New York Times. We take pride in preserving the original character and craftsmanship of these beautiful old homes while bringing the marble back to its original condition. It’s not just restoration – it’s preservation of Long Island’s architectural heritage.
