Yes, we specialize in removing deep scratches, etching, and surface damage from marble staircases. For minor scratches, we use medium to high grit industrial diamond pads to refinish the surface. For deeper scratches, we start with coarse grit grinding pads and progressively use finer pads, then polish the stone to achieve a high-gloss finish.

Marble polishing is surface-level treatment that enhances shine on marble that’s already in good condition. Restoration is comprehensive repair that addresses damage, scratches, etching, stains, and structural issues before polishing.
If your marble staircase has scratches, dull spots, etching, or stains, it needs restoration – not just polishing. Polishing damaged marble without proper restoration is like putting makeup over a wound; it might look better temporarily but doesn’t fix the underlying problems.
Our restoration process includes grinding to remove imperfections, honing with progressively finer pads to refine the surface, then polishing with resin-bonded diamond pads to bring out the final shine. True restoration addresses every issue and delivers results that last for years, not months.
