Absolutely. Etching appears as dull, cloudy spots where acids have reacted with the marble’s surface – typically from lemon juice, wine, or cleaning products. This damage can be professionally polished out using specialized diamond polishing compounds and techniques.
We restore the surface to its original shine through a multi-step polishing process that removes the damaged layer and brings back the natural luster. After polishing, we apply a professional-grade sealer to protect against future etching. The results are permanent when properly maintained.
Most countertop restoration projects are completed in just 1-2 days, while replacement typically takes 2-3 weeks from demolition to final installation. Restoration means your kitchen remains functional throughout the process.
We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine. There’s no demolition dust, no waiting for new stone to be fabricated, and no extended construction timeline. You can use your kitchen the same day we complete the work, once our sealer has cured for a few hours.
We can repair most types of marble damage including chips, cracks, stains, etching, and general dulling from wear. Even significant damage can often be restored rather than requiring complete replacement.
Chips and cracks are filled with color-matched epoxy using specialized techniques that make repairs virtually invisible. Stains are removed through professional cleaning and sometimes light polishing. Deep scratches and etching are polished out using diamond compounds. After repairs, the entire surface is polished and sealed so everything blends perfectly.
Professional countertop restoration typically costs 70-80% less than full replacement. While new marble countertops can cost $60-100+ per square foot installed, restoration usually runs $15-25 per square foot depending on the extent of damage.
Beyond the direct cost savings, you avoid expenses like demolition, disposal fees, potential plumbing modifications, and the hidden costs of weeks without a functional kitchen. Most homeowners are surprised by how much money restoration saves while delivering results that look just as good as new.
When professionally restored, your marble countertops will look identical to new surfaces. Our specialized techniques can remove virtually any type of damage and restore the original shine and smoothness.
We use the same polishing compounds and techniques used in stone fabrication shops, combined with color-matched repair materials that blend seamlessly. The key is professional-grade equipment and nearly two decades of experience working with natural stone. Many clients are amazed that they can’t tell where repairs were made.
Proper maintenance after restoration is straightforward and helps your investment last for years. We provide detailed care instructions specific to your stone type and the sealer we applied.
Daily cleaning should use pH-neutral stone cleaners – never acidic products like vinegar or lemon-based cleaners. Wipe up spills immediately, especially acidic liquids. Use cutting boards and trivets to prevent scratches and heat damage. Depending on use, professional resealing every 1-2 years maintains optimal protection. We’re always available to answer maintenance questions or provide follow-up services.
