We’ve been restoring marble walls and historic stone surfaces across Long Island for over 25 years. We’re not a cleaning company that dabbles in stone work—we’re restoration specialists who understand the unique challenges of Bay Shore’s historic homes and demanding coastal environment.
Our owner-operator approach means you work directly with the expert doing the work, not a salesperson. We’ve been featured in the New York Times for our restoration expertise and have built our reputation on projects other contractors won’t touch.
Bay Shore’s mix of historic properties and modern homes creates unique restoration challenges. We understand the difference between maintaining 100-year-old marble and restoring contemporary installations, and we bring the right approach to each project.
First, we assess the current condition of your marble walls and identify the specific problems—whether it’s etching from harsh cleaners, hard water buildup, soap scum, or structural issues with caulking and grout. This tells us exactly what restoration approach will work.
Next, we use professional-grade equipment to remove stains, repair surface damage, and restore the original finish. This isn’t surface cleaning—it’s actual restoration that addresses damage at the stone level. We handle everything from grinding and honing to polishing and sealing.
Finally, we protect your investment with proper sealing and provide you with maintenance guidance that keeps your marble looking great for years. You get a restored surface plus the knowledge to maintain it properly going forward.

Our marble walls restoration service covers every aspect of bringing your stone back to life. We handle shower walls, backsplashes, vanity surrounds, and any other marble wall application in your Bay Shore home or business.
The service includes stain removal, etch repair, professional polishing, grout restoration, re-caulking, and protective sealing. We also address the underlying issues that cause marble deterioration—like improper drainage or ventilation problems that lead to ongoing damage.
Long Island’s coastal environment creates specific challenges for marble maintenance. Salt air, humidity fluctuations, and the area’s hard water all contribute to accelerated marble deterioration. Our restoration process accounts for these local factors and provides protection that works in Bay Shore’s specific environment.
Yes, we regularly restore marble shower walls damaged by inappropriate cleaning products. Most bathroom cleaners contain acids or harsh chemicals that etch marble surfaces, creating dull spots and permanent-looking damage.
Our restoration process can remove most etching and restore the original finish through professional grinding, honing, and polishing techniques. We use specialized equipment and compounds designed specifically for marble restoration—not the general cleaning products that caused the damage in the first place.
The key is addressing the damage properly rather than trying to cover it up. Surface treatments won’t fix etching, but professional restoration can bring back the original luster and protect against future damage.
Most marble wall restoration projects in Bay Shore bathrooms take 1-3 days, depending on the extent of damage and the size of the area. Shower wall restoration typically takes longer than backsplash work because of the additional challenges with caulking, grout, and water damage.
The timeline includes assessment, restoration work, and proper curing time for sealers and protective coatings. We don’t rush the process because proper restoration requires allowing each step to complete fully before moving to the next.
We provide a realistic timeline during the initial assessment and keep you informed throughout the process. Our goal is thorough restoration that lasts, not quick fixes that fail in a few months.
Marble cleaning addresses surface dirt and buildup, while restoration repairs actual damage to the stone itself. If your marble has lost its shine, developed etch marks, or shows permanent staining, you need restoration, not just cleaning.
Cleaning maintains marble that’s already in good condition. Restoration brings damaged marble back to its original state through grinding, honing, polishing, and sealing processes that actually reshape and refinish the stone surface.
Many companies offer “cleaning” services that can’t address real marble damage. We specialize in actual restoration that fixes problems other services can’t handle—which is why property owners call us when cleaning hasn’t worked.
Yes, we stand behind our marble restoration work because we use professional-grade materials and proven techniques. Our owner-operator approach means the person guaranteeing the work is the same person doing it—not a salesperson who won’t be there if problems arise.
The specific warranty depends on the type of restoration and the condition of the underlying installation. We discuss warranty terms during the initial assessment so you know exactly what’s covered before we start work.
Our goal is restoration that lasts for years, not temporary fixes. We’ve been in business since 1998 because we do the work right the first time and take responsibility for the results.
Absolutely—in fact, damaged grout and caulking are often the root cause of marble wall problems. Water infiltration through failed caulking leads to staining, mold growth, and even structural damage that makes marble restoration more complex.
Our restoration process includes complete grout and caulking renewal as needed. We remove old, failed materials and replace them with proper products that prevent future water damage. This is essential for long-term success of the marble restoration.
Trying to restore marble without addressing grout and caulking problems is like painting over rust—it looks good temporarily but the underlying issues continue causing damage. We handle the complete restoration, not just the visible surface problems.
Professional marble restoration typically costs a fraction of replacement while delivering results that can last decades. Replacement involves demolition, disposal, new materials, and installation—often costing $10,000+ for a typical bathroom.
Restoration preserves your existing investment and often achieves better results than replacement with lower-grade materials. If you have quality marble that’s been damaged by improper care, restoration makes both financial and aesthetic sense.
The decision depends on the condition of your existing marble and the quality of the original installation. We provide honest assessments—if replacement makes more sense, we’ll tell you. But in most cases, proper restoration delivers superior results at a much lower cost.
