Your marble shower walls and backsplashes don’t have to stay dull, stained, or etched. When you choose professional restoration, you get back the smooth, lustrous surfaces that made you fall in love with marble in the first place.
Think about walking into your bathroom and seeing walls that actually reflect light again. No more embarrassing water stains or soap scum buildup that makes your beautiful marble look neglected. Instead, you get surfaces that feel as smooth as glass and shine like they did when they were first installed.
The difference isn’t just cosmetic. Properly restored marble walls resist future staining and are easier to maintain, which means your investment pays off for years to come.
We’ve been restoring marble walls and historic stone surfaces across Great River and Long Island for over 25 years. We’re the company that gets called when other contractors say a job can’t be done.

Great River’s historic homes often feature original marble installations that require specialized knowledge to restore properly. We understand these materials and have the experience to handle even the most challenging restoration projects in your area’s beautiful older homes.
We start with a thorough assessment of your marble walls to identify the specific issues – whether it’s etching from acidic cleaners, mineral buildup from hard water, or deeper damage that needs repair. You’ll know exactly what we’re going to do and why before we begin.
Next comes the restoration itself. We use professional-grade equipment to carefully remove stains, polish out scratches and etch marks, and bring back the original finish. For shower walls, we also address grout issues and re-caulk where needed to prevent future water damage.
The final step is protection. We apply appropriate sealers to help your restored marble walls resist staining and make daily maintenance much easier. You’ll also get specific care instructions to keep your marble looking beautiful for years to come.

Our marble wall restoration covers everything from shower enclosures to kitchen backsplashes and decorative wall installations. We handle the tough problems that general cleaners can’t touch – hard water stains, soap scum buildup, etching from harsh chemicals, and even minor chips or cracks.
Great River homes often feature marble in bathrooms and kitchens where daily use takes its toll. The area’s hard water can be particularly challenging for marble surfaces, creating mineral deposits that dull the stone over time. We have the specialized tools and techniques to remove these deposits without damaging the marble underneath.
Whether you’re dealing with a single accent wall or an entire marble shower enclosure, we provide the same attention to detail that’s made us the go-to restoration company for Long Island’s most discerning homeowners.
Yes, we specialize in bringing back marble walls that other contractors might say are beyond repair. We’ve restored shower walls with years of soap scum buildup, severe water staining, and even surfaces that previous owners tried to clean with harsh chemicals that caused etching.
The key is using the right restoration process for your specific situation. We start with professional-grade cleaning to remove all buildup, then use diamond polishing techniques to eliminate etching and restore the original finish. Most homeowners are amazed at how much better their marble walls look after proper restoration.
Even marble that looks completely dull and stained usually has plenty of good stone underneath that can be brought back to life with the right approach.
Most marble wall restoration projects in Great River homes are completed within 1-2 days, depending on the size of the area and the extent of damage. A typical shower wall restoration can often be finished in a single day.
We work efficiently because we understand you need your bathroom back. For shower walls, we coordinate our work so you’re not without your shower any longer than absolutely necessary. We’ll let you know the exact timeline during our initial assessment.
The restoration process does require some drying time for sealers, but we’ll walk you through exactly when you can use your restored marble surfaces again. Most clients are back to normal use within 24 hours of completion.
Absolutely. Professional marble restoration typically costs a fraction of replacement while giving you results that look like new marble. When you factor in the cost of new marble, demolition, installation, and the disruption to your home, restoration makes financial sense.
Plus, if you have quality marble – especially in an older Great River home – you’re likely dealing with stone that’s actually better than what you could buy new today. Many historic marble installations used premium materials that would be extremely expensive to source now.
Restoration also preserves the character and authenticity of your home, which is particularly important in Great River’s historic properties where original details add significant value.
The biggest culprits are hard water minerals, soap residue, and improper cleaning products. Long Island’s hard water leaves mineral deposits that build up over time, creating those white, chalky stains that are impossible to remove with regular cleaners.
Many homeowners unknowingly make the problem worse by using acidic cleaners or abrasive scrubbing products that actually etch the marble surface. Once marble is etched, it loses its shine and becomes more porous, which makes it stain more easily.
Daily use also contributes – soap scum, shampoo residue, and body oils all build up in the microscopic pores of marble. Without professional cleaning and sealing, these substances gradually dull the surface and can even cause permanent discoloration.
Yes, we restore marble backsplashes and kitchen wall installations throughout Great River. Kitchen marble faces different challenges than bathroom marble – cooking oils, acidic foods, and heat can all affect the stone’s appearance over time.
We see a lot of marble backsplashes that have lost their shine from cooking grease and food splatter, or that have developed stains from acidic ingredients like tomatoes or citrus. The restoration process removes these stains and brings back the original finish.
Kitchen marble restoration also includes proper sealing to help protect against future staining from cooking activities. We’ll show you the best ways to maintain your restored backsplash so it stays beautiful even with daily cooking.
Historic marble restoration is actually our specialty. We’ve been working on century-old marble installations throughout Long Island for over 25 years, and we understand the unique challenges these materials present.
Older marble often requires different techniques than modern stone. Historic installations may have different mineral compositions, original finishes that need to be matched, or structural issues that need to be addressed during restoration. We have the experience to handle these complexities properly.
Many of Great River’s beautiful older homes feature original marble work that adds tremendous character and value. Our goal is to preserve that authenticity while bringing the stone back to its original beauty. We’ve even been featured in the New York Times for our expertise in historic stone restoration.
