Your marble walls will look exactly like they did when your home was first built. No more embarrassing stains, dull spots, or etching that makes you cringe every time guests visit.
Our restoration process eliminates years of damage from hard water, soap scum, and improper cleaning products. You’ll have walls that reflect light beautifully again, with that deep, rich luster that only properly maintained marble can provide.
Most importantly, you’ll preserve the historic character that makes your 1940s-era Halesite home special while protecting your substantial investment in this high-value market.
We’ve been restoring marble walls in Halesite’s historic homes for over 25 years. We’re the company that gets excited about the challenging projects other contractors walk away from.
Our owner-operator approach means you work directly with the craftsman handling your restoration, not a salesperson who disappears after you sign. We’ve been featured in the New York Times and maintain long-term relationships with prestigious clients like the Garden City Hotel.
Halesite’s 1940s-era homes present unique restoration opportunities that require specialized knowledge of historic materials and techniques. We understand what these older marble installations need to maintain their character while meeting modern durability expectations.
We start with a thorough assessment of your marble walls to identify the extent of damage and determine the best restoration approach. Every wall tells a different story, and we tailor our methods accordingly.
The cleaning phase removes years of buildup using pH-neutral products specifically designed for marble. We never use harsh chemicals that can cause further etching or damage to your historic stone.
Next comes the restoration work itself – grinding away surface damage, honing to smooth the marble, and polishing to restore that original luster. For deeper issues like cracks or chips, we use color-matched epoxy repairs that blend seamlessly with your existing marble.
Finally, we seal the restored surface to protect against future staining and moisture damage. You’ll receive care instructions to help maintain your investment for years to come.
