Your marble staircase becomes the centerpiece it was meant to be. No more embarrassing scratches from moving furniture or dull spots from years of foot traffic. No more avoiding that area when guests visit.
The restoration process removes deep etching, eliminates surface scratches, and brings back the original luster that made you choose marble in the first place. You get a staircase that looks like it was just installed, but with the character and patina that only comes with age.
This isn’t just about appearance. Properly restored marble stairs are easier to maintain, more resistant to future damage, and significantly increase your home’s value. You’re not just fixing a problem—you’re protecting a major investment.
We’ve been bringing damaged stone back to life in Nassau and Suffolk County for 18 years. We’re owner-operated, which means you deal directly with the person responsible for your results—not a salesperson who disappears after you sign.
Our specialty is historic floor restoration, particularly the challenging projects other companies won’t touch. The older and more damaged your marble staircase, the more we want to work on it. We’ve restored 100-year-old marble in some of Coram’s most distinguished homes.
Coram’s historic homes present unique challenges. Many feature original marble staircases that have endured decades of family life, moving furniture, and well-meaning but incorrect cleaning attempts. We understand these materials and have the refined techniques to restore them without compromising their historical integrity.
We start with a thorough assessment of your marble staircase’s condition. Every scratch, etch mark, and stain gets evaluated to determine the exact restoration approach needed. No guesswork—just a clear plan based on 35 years of refined techniques.
The restoration begins with careful masking and protection of surrounding areas. We use diamond polishing pads and specialized compounds to gradually remove surface damage, working from coarse to fine grits. Deep scratches get filled with color-matched compounds before polishing.
Each step is polished individually to ensure uniform results across the entire staircase. We finish with sealing to protect against future damage and make daily maintenance simple. The entire process typically takes 1-2 days depending on the staircase size and damage extent.
You get transparent pricing upfront and direct communication throughout. The owner personally oversees every project, so you know exactly what’s happening and when it will be complete.

Your marble staircase restoration includes complete surface preparation, scratch removal, etch repair, and professional polishing to restore the original finish. We also provide color-matched crack filling and chip repair when needed.
Coram’s climate presents specific challenges for marble surfaces. The humidity changes between seasons can cause expansion and contraction, leading to hairline cracks. Salt tracked in during winter months creates etching that standard cleaning can’t remove. Our restoration process addresses these local conditions specifically.
We include protective sealing that’s formulated for Long Island’s environment. This isn’t a generic coating—it’s selected based on your marble type, usage patterns, and local conditions. You also receive specific maintenance instructions tailored to your restored staircase.
The service includes thorough cleanup and protection of surrounding areas. We use dust-free methods whenever possible and ensure your home remains livable throughout the restoration process. No mess, no damage to adjacent surfaces, no surprises.
Most marble staircase restorations in Coram take 1-2 days, depending on the size of your staircase and extent of damage. A typical 12-step staircase with moderate scratching and etching usually requires one full day. Extensive damage or larger staircases may need two days.
We work efficiently but never rush quality. Each step must be properly polished and sealed before moving to the next. The owner personally oversees timing to ensure you get the results you’re paying for without unnecessary delays.
Weather can affect drying times, especially during Coram’s humid summer months. We factor local conditions into our scheduling and always provide realistic timeframes upfront.
Yes, we specialize in restoring severely damaged marble staircases that other companies consider unrepairable. Deep scratches get filled with color-matched epoxy compounds, then sanded and polished to match the surrounding surface. Chips are rebuilt using the same process.
The key is matching the repair material exactly to your marble’s color and veining pattern. We keep an extensive inventory of repair compounds and can custom-mix colors when needed. Most repairs become virtually invisible once the polishing is complete.
Some damage is too extensive for repair, particularly if structural integrity is compromised. During our initial assessment, we’ll identify any areas that might need replacement rather than restoration. We’re honest about what can and cannot be fixed.
No, our restoration process preserves the character and patina that comes with age while eliminating damage. We specialize in historic floor restoration and understand the difference between restoring and over-restoring.
The goal is to make your marble staircase look well-maintained, not brand new. We can adjust the final polish level to match your home’s character. Some clients prefer a softer, honed finish rather than high-gloss polishing for a more authentic historic appearance.
We’ve worked on marble staircases in Coram homes dating back over 100 years. Each project requires balancing historical accuracy with practical durability. Your restored staircase will look like it’s been properly cared for throughout its life, not replaced.
We use a disciplined masking and protection system that keeps dust and debris contained to the work area. Plastic sheeting, protective paper, and specialized vacuum systems prevent contamination of your home.
Our equipment includes dust-free polishing systems when possible. For processes that generate dust, we use industrial air filtration to capture particles before they spread. All furniture and fixtures near the staircase get covered with protective materials.
Cleanup is included in every project. We don’t consider the job complete until your home is cleaner than when we arrived. This attention to detail is part of being owner-operated—your home gets treated like our own.
Restored marble stairs require minimal maintenance when properly sealed. Daily cleaning with a pH-neutral stone cleaner and microfiber mop keeps them looking pristine. Avoid acidic cleaners like vinegar or generic household cleaners that can cause etching.
The protective sealer we apply typically lasts 2-3 years with normal use. High-traffic staircases may need resealing annually. We provide specific maintenance instructions based on your marble type and household usage patterns.
Professional cleaning and resealing every few years maintains the restoration and prevents damage from accumulating. This preventive approach is much more cost-effective than waiting until major restoration is needed again.
Yes, we warranty our restoration work because we’re confident in our techniques and materials. The specific warranty terms depend on your marble type, usage conditions, and maintenance compliance, but typically cover workmanship for one year.
We also provide guidance on proper maintenance to preserve your warranty coverage. Most warranty claims result from improper cleaning products or maintenance, which is why we include detailed care instructions with every project.
Being owner-operated means you can reach the person responsible for your work directly if any issues arise. We stand behind our results because our reputation depends on every single project we complete.
