Your marble walls will look like they were just installed yesterday. Gone are the chalky water spots that make your bathroom look neglected. Gone is the dull, lifeless surface that no amount of scrubbing can fix.
Instead, you get walls that catch light like mirrors. Smooth surfaces that feel luxurious to touch. Marble that actually looks like the premium material you paid for.
The transformation happens in one day, but the results last for years. We don’t just clean your marble—we restore it to a condition that often surpasses the original installation.
High Definition Marble Restoration has been the go-to choice for discerning North Wantagh homeowners for over 25 years. We’re not a franchise or subcontractor—when you call us, you work directly with experienced craftsmen who’ve restored marble in some of Long Island’s most prestigious homes.
Our expertise has been recognized by the New York Times, and we’ve built our reputation one satisfied homeowner at a time. In North Wantagh’s competitive market where homes regularly sell for $650,000 to $750,000, we understand that every detail matters.
We know Long Island’s unique challenges. Hard water that leaves stubborn mineral deposits. Humidity that accelerates marble deterioration. The specific cleaning products that North Wantagh homeowners use that can damage natural stone. This local knowledge makes all the difference in achieving lasting results.
First, we assess every inch of your marble walls. Not just the obvious damage—we identify early-stage etching and staining that will become bigger problems if left untreated. This comprehensive evaluation ensures we address everything in one visit.
Our deep cleaning phase removes the buildup that regular cleaners can’t touch. Soap scum, hard water deposits, and mineral stains disappear using specialized products formulated for natural stone. No harsh acids that cause more damage.
The restoration phase is where the magic happens. We carefully grind away surface damage and polish the marble to its original luster. This isn’t a temporary coating—we’re actually refining the stone surface to eliminate scratches, etch marks, and dullness permanently.
Finally, we apply professional-grade sealing that penetrates deep into the marble. This creates lasting protection against future staining and makes your daily cleaning routine much easier. Most North Wantagh homeowners are amazed at how much easier their marble is to maintain afterward.

We restore every type of marble wall installation in North Wantagh homes—shower walls, kitchen backsplashes, accent walls, fireplace surrounds, and wainscoting. Each application faces different challenges, and our techniques are customized accordingly.
Kitchen marble battles cooking oils and acidic foods. Bathroom walls fight constant humidity and hard water. Living area accent walls deal with fingerprints and general wear. We’ve seen it all in North Wantagh’s diverse housing stock, from waterfront contemporaries to classic colonials.
Long Island’s water conditions create unique challenges that many restoration companies don’t understand. The mineral content in our local water supply leaves deposits that build up over time, creating that chalky white film that makes marble look permanently damaged. Our restoration process specifically addresses these local conditions, ensuring results that last in our climate.
Most marble wall restoration projects take one full day, but the timeline depends on the size and condition of your walls. A typical master bathroom with marble shower walls usually takes 6-8 hours from start to finish.
Larger projects—like homes with extensive marble in multiple bathrooms or kitchen backsplashes—might require two days. We always provide a precise timeline during our free consultation so you can plan your schedule accordingly.
The process is completely dustless, and we protect all surrounding areas with plastic sheeting. We clean up thoroughly when finished, leaving your home exactly as we found it—except for the dramatically improved marble. You can typically resume normal use within 24 hours, though we recommend waiting that long for the sealer to fully cure.
Absolutely. Those white, chalky deposits are extremely common in North Wantagh due to Long Island’s hard water conditions. What looks like permanent damage is actually removable mineral buildup and soap scum that regular cleaners can’t handle effectively.
We use specialized cleaning compounds designed specifically for natural stone that dissolve these deposits without etching the marble surface. Many homeowners have unknowingly made the problem worse by using acidic bathroom cleaners that actually damage the stone while trying to remove the buildup.
After removing all deposits, we polish the surface to restore its original clarity and smoothness. Then we apply a penetrating sealer that makes future cleaning much easier by preventing soap scum and minerals from bonding as tightly to the surface. Many clients tell us their weekly cleaning routine becomes significantly easier after restoration.
Yes, significantly. According to the National Association of Realtors, professional stone restoration can increase property value by up to 25%. In North Wantagh’s market where homes average $650,000 to $750,000, well-maintained natural stone is a major selling point that buyers specifically look for.
Restored marble walls create the impression of expensive renovations while costing a fraction of replacement. When potential buyers see pristine marble in bathrooms and kitchens, they perceive higher quality and better maintenance throughout the entire home.
We’ve had numerous North Wantagh clients tell us that real estate agents specifically mentioned their restored marble as a value-adding feature during home sales. It’s an investment that pays dividends both in daily enjoyment and eventual resale. Plus, in a competitive market where buyers have many choices, beautiful marble can be the detail that sets your home apart.
Prevention starts with our professional sealing process. We apply a penetrating sealer that goes deep into the marble’s microscopic pores, creating a protective barrier against stains and making the surface more resistant to etching from acidic substances like cleaning products and personal care items.
We provide detailed care instructions tailored specifically to North Wantagh’s water conditions and climate. This includes recommendations for pH-neutral cleaners that won’t damage marble, techniques for preventing the hard water buildup that’s common in our area, and daily maintenance tips that keep your marble looking perfect.
Regular professional maintenance is crucial for long-term results. We recommend professional cleaning and resealing every 12-18 months depending on usage patterns. Many North Wantagh homeowners join our maintenance program, which prevents the need for major restoration work and keeps their marble looking showroom-perfect year-round. It’s much more cost-effective than letting problems develop and requiring full restoration again.
We can repair almost all common marble wall damage including etching from acidic cleaners and personal care products, water spots and mineral rings, surface scratches from cleaning, soap scum staining, and the general dullness that develops over time. Small chips and hairline cracks can often be filled and polished to nearly invisible repairs.
Surface-level damage responds exceptionally well to our restoration process. Even marble that looks severely compromised—completely dull, covered in water spots, or heavily stained—can usually be brought back to like-new condition through our specialized grinding and polishing techniques.
The only damage we typically can’t restore is deep structural cracks that go completely through the marble thickness, or major impact damage that has actually broken pieces off. During our free consultation, we’ll honestly assess your specific situation and explain exactly what can be restored versus what might need replacement. Most homeowners are pleasantly surprised by how much damage we can actually repair.
Yes, kitchen marble restoration is one of our specialties. Marble backsplashes face unique challenges from cooking oils, acidic foods like tomatoes and citrus, wine spills, and frequent cleaning that can cause etching and permanent staining over time.
In North Wantagh kitchens, we commonly see damage from pasta sauce splatters, wine stains, coffee rings, and etching from vinegar-based cleaners. These acidic substances can permanently dull marble if not properly addressed, but our restoration process removes this damage and applies protective sealing to prevent future problems.
We work around your kitchen schedule and protect all appliances, countertops, and cabinets during the restoration process. Most backsplash projects can be completed in 3-4 hours, allowing you to prepare dinner normally while enjoying marble that looks like it was just installed. The transformation is so dramatic that many homeowners say it feels like getting a brand new kitchen.
