We’ve been serving Stony Brook and Long Island since 1998. We’re not a franchise or fly-by-night operation—we’re an owner-operated business where the person who quotes your job is the same expert who completes it.
Our specialty is bringing historic and challenging marble back to life. The worse the condition, the better we like it. We’ve been featured in the New York Times and have maintained the same prestigious clients for over 16 years because we deliver results that last.
Stony Brook’s beautiful historic homes, many dating back decades, require specialized knowledge. We understand the unique challenges of older marble installations and have the expertise to restore them without compromising their character or value.
First, we assess your marble walls to identify the specific issues—whether it’s water damage, etching, staining, or structural problems. We protect your surrounding areas with professional masking and use dustless techniques to keep your home clean.
Next comes the restoration itself. We carefully grind away damaged surface layers, repair any cracks or chips, and progressively polish the marble to your desired finish. For shower walls and backsplashes, we address grout issues and apply proper waterproof sealing.
Finally, we seal your restored marble with commercial-grade products that protect against future damage. The entire process typically takes 1-2 days, and you can use your restored surfaces the next day. We handle all cleanup—no mess left behind.

Our marble walls restoration covers every application in your home. Shower walls get special attention with waterproof sealing and mold prevention treatments. Kitchen backsplashes are restored to resist cooking oils and food stains. Bathroom vanity walls regain their elegant appearance.
In Stony Brook’s older homes, we often encounter unique challenges like historic installation methods or rare marble types. Our experience with colonial-era homes and mid-century installations means we know how to work with whatever we find.
We also handle the details others miss—matching grout colors, repairing corner joints, and ensuring proper drainage around shower areas. Every surface receives the specific treatment it needs, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Most marble wall restoration projects in Stony Brook take 1-2 days to complete, depending on the size and condition of the surfaces. Shower walls typically take one full day, while larger areas like entire bathroom walls or kitchen backsplashes might extend into a second day.
We use dustless grinding techniques and professional masking to protect your furniture and belongings. You can usually start using your restored marble walls the day after we finish, once the sealers have fully cured.
The timeline also depends on any repairs needed. Simple polishing and sealing happens quickly, but if we’re addressing water damage or structural issues, we’ll give you a clear schedule upfront so you can plan accordingly.
Yes, water-damaged marble shower walls are actually our specialty. We see this frequently in Stony Brook’s older homes where original waterproofing has failed or grout has deteriorated over time.
The process involves removing damaged marble layers, treating any mold issues, repairing the substrate if needed, and then restoring the marble surface. We also address the root cause by improving waterproofing and sealing all grout lines with commercial-grade products.
Severe water damage might require removing and replacing some marble pieces, but we can often save much more of the original marble than homeowners expect. We’ll assess your specific situation and explain exactly what can be restored versus what needs replacement.
Cleaning only removes surface dirt and buildup, while restoration actually repairs the marble itself. If your marble walls have lost their shine, developed etching from acidic cleaners, or have scratches and stains that won’t come out, you need restoration.
Many homeowners try harsh cleaners first, which often makes the problem worse by creating more etching. Professional restoration removes these damaged layers and rebuilds the marble’s surface through grinding and polishing.
Think of it this way: cleaning is like washing your car, while restoration is like removing scratches and repainting. If your marble walls look dull or damaged even after thorough cleaning, restoration is the only way to bring back their original beauty.
We take protection seriously because we’re working in your living space. Before any work begins, we install professional plastic sheeting and masking to isolate the work area from the rest of your home.
Our dustless grinding systems capture particles at the source, so dust doesn’t spread through your house. We also use specialized equipment that contains water and debris, preventing damage to floors, fixtures, and belongings.
At the end of each day, we clean up completely. You won’t find marble dust on your furniture or tracking through your house. We’ve been doing this for 25+ years and understand that your home needs to remain livable during the restoration process.
Yes, proper sealing is a crucial part of our marble wall restoration process, especially for shower applications. We use commercial-grade penetrating sealers that create a barrier against water and staining without changing the marble’s appearance.
For shower walls, we pay special attention to grout lines and corners where water typically penetrates. We often recommend upgrading to epoxy-based grout sealers that provide superior water resistance compared to standard grout.
The key is using the right products for your specific marble type and installation. Different marbles have different porosity levels, and shower environments require more robust protection than decorative walls. We select sealers based on your marble’s characteristics and intended use.
Absolutely. Working with historic marble is actually our favorite type of project. Many of Stony Brook’s older homes feature marble installations from the 1940s-1960s with specific finishes that were popular during those eras.
We have the experience and equipment to recreate various finish levels, from high-gloss polish to subtle honed finishes. We also understand the installation methods used in different time periods and can work within those constraints.
Often, we can improve upon the original installation by addressing issues that weren’t well-understood decades ago, like proper waterproofing and sealing. You get the authentic look you want with modern protection that will last much longer than the original installation.
