Your marble walls don’t have to stay dull, etched, or stained. Professional restoration brings back that mirror-like finish you remember, often at a fraction of replacement cost.
When we’re done, you’ll have walls that look better than the day they were installed. No more embarrassing stains in your shower. No more dull, lifeless marble that makes your bathroom feel dated.
Our restoration process actually strengthens the stone and creates a protective barrier against future damage. You get beauty that lasts, not just a temporary fix.
We’ve been restoring Glen Cove’s finest marble surfaces since 1998. We’re the owner-operated company that earned recognition in the New York Times for our expertise with historic materials.
Glen Cove’s beautiful homes, many dating back over a century, require specialists who understand both the stone and the craftsmanship that went into these properties. We’ve worked on everything from Victorian-era marble to modern installations.
Our first client, the Garden City Hotel, has trusted us exclusively for over 16 years. That’s the kind of relationship we build when we do the work right the first time.
We start with a thorough assessment of your marble walls, identifying the specific type of stone and the extent of damage. This isn’t guesswork – we’ve been doing this for over two decades.
Next comes the restoration itself. We use diamond abrasives and specialized equipment to remove scratches, etching, and stains without damaging the stone. Our process is dust-free and done on-site, so there’s no need to remove your walls.
Finally, we polish and seal the surface to protect against future damage. You’ll see the difference immediately – that deep, lustrous shine that makes marble so beautiful. The whole process typically takes a day or two, depending on the scope of work.

Our marble walls restoration covers everything from shower walls to kitchen backsplashes to decorative accent walls. We handle Carrara, Calacatta, Emperador, and other marble types commonly found in Glen Cove homes.
Glen Cove’s proximity to the water means many homes deal with humidity-related issues that can affect marble. We understand how Long Island’s climate impacts natural stone and adjust our techniques accordingly.
Each project includes thorough cleaning, repair of chips and cracks, removal of etching and stains, professional polishing, and protective sealing. We also provide maintenance guidance to help you preserve the results for years to come.
Yes, we specialize in reversing damage from acidic cleaners like vinegar, lemon juice, or bathroom cleaners that contain acids. These products etch marble, creating dull spots that look like water stains but won’t wipe away.
Our restoration process removes the damaged layer through careful grinding and honing, then polishes the surface back to its original luster. We’ve restored marble walls that homeowners thought were permanently ruined.
The key is acting quickly – the longer etching sits, the deeper it penetrates. But even severely damaged marble can usually be restored to like-new condition with the right techniques and equipment.
Most of our marble wall restoration projects in Glen Cove take 1-2 days, depending on the size and condition of the walls. A typical bathroom shower wall can often be completed in one day.
We work efficiently but never rush the process. Each step – cleaning, repair, polishing, and sealing – needs proper time to cure and set. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during our free estimate.
Our process is done entirely on-site with dust-free equipment, so there’s minimal disruption to your daily routine. You can usually use the space again within 24 hours of completion.
Cleaning removes surface dirt and grime but can’t fix scratches, etching, or dullness. Restoration actually repairs the stone surface and brings back the original finish.
Many “cleaning companies” use harsh chemicals or abrasives that can damage marble further. True restoration requires specialized diamond abrasives, proper techniques, and an understanding of how different marble types respond to treatment.
After our restoration, your marble walls will have that deep, mirror-like shine that only comes from proper polishing. Regular cleaning maintains this finish, but only restoration can create it.
Restoration typically costs 20-30% of replacement while delivering better results than new installation. You keep your original marble, which often has better quality and character than what’s available today.
Replacement involves demolition, disposal, new material costs, and installation – plus weeks of construction mess. Our restoration is completed in days with minimal disruption.
Historic marble, especially in Glen Cove’s older homes, often has unique veining and quality that’s impossible to match with new stone. Restoration preserves this irreplaceable character while making it look brand new.
Yes, we can restore marble shower walls around existing fixtures, tile, and plumbing. Our equipment is designed to work in tight spaces and around obstacles.
We carefully mask and protect all surrounding surfaces during our restoration process. Fixtures, faucets, and adjoining tile are completely protected from any overspray or debris.
This approach saves you thousands in demolition and reinstallation costs while achieving the same beautiful results. We’ve perfected techniques for working around even the most complex shower configurations.
We apply professional-grade sealers specifically chosen for Glen Cove’s coastal humidity. These penetrating sealers create a barrier against moisture while allowing the stone to breathe naturally.
Long Island’s climate can be tough on natural stone, but proper sealing prevents water damage, mold growth, and mineral deposits. We use different sealer formulations for shower areas versus dry walls.
We also provide specific maintenance guidelines for our Long Island clients, including recommended cleaning products and schedules that work with the local water conditions and humidity levels.
