25 Years Restoring North Valley Stream's Historic Homes

We’ve been restoring marble and natural stone since 1998. We’re owner-operated, which means you work directly with the craftsman doing the work—not a sales rep who’s never touched your marble. North Valley Stream’s homes were built between 1930 and 1950, and many still have original marble installations that just need proper care. We’ve seen what happens when homeowners try DIY steam cleaning or use the wrong products—thermal damage, etching, and expensive repairs. We were featured in the New York Times for our restoration work on historic floors. When your marble needs more than basic cleaning, we’re the team that knows how to bring it back without replacement costs.

Steam Cleaning Process North Valley Stream

How We Clean Marble Without Damaging It

First, we protect everything around your marble surfaces. We’re not the crew that shows up and gets cleaning solution on your furniture or floors. We use professional-grade steam equipment that’s calibrated for natural stone—not the high-heat commercial cleaners that can crack marble. The steam temperature and pressure are controlled to clean deep without causing thermal expansion damage. We work systematically, focusing extra attention on areas with heavy buildup. The steam lifts dirt and bacteria from deep in the marble’s pores while our extraction system removes it immediately. No residue, no streaking. After cleaning, we inspect every surface and address any spots that need additional attention. Your marble gets dried properly to prevent water spots, and we give you maintenance guidance to keep it looking this good.

Is steam cleaning safe for my marble shower walls?

Professional steam cleaning is safe when done correctly with the right equipment and temperature controls. The key difference is using steam cleaners calibrated for natural stone—not high-heat commercial units or DIY steam mops that can cause thermal damage. We use controlled-temperature steam that cleans deep without causing the expansion and contraction that cracks marble. Our equipment maintains consistent pressure and temperature specifically for marble’s porosity and thermal sensitivity. DIY steam cleaning often causes more problems than it solves because residential steam cleaners run too hot or homeowners don’t understand how marble reacts to heat and moisture. Professional equipment and expertise make all the difference.

How often should marble walls be steam cleaned professionally?

Most marble shower walls and backsplashes need professional steam cleaning every 12-18 months, depending on water hardness and daily usage. Heavy-use showers may need cleaning annually, while guest bathrooms can go longer. The frequency depends on your specific situation. Hard water areas like parts of North Valley Stream see mineral buildup faster. Large families with daily shower use need more frequent cleaning than couples who travel frequently. We’ll assess your marble’s condition and give you a realistic timeline based on what we see. Some clients need annual service, others can go two years. It’s about your marble’s actual condition, not a one-size-fits-all schedule.

Can you remove water spots and soap scum that regular cleaning won't touch?

Yes, professional steam cleaning removes buildup that regular household cleaners can’t handle. The high-temperature steam dissolves mineral deposits and soap scum that have bonded to the marble surface over months or years. Regular cleaning products often can’t penetrate deep enough into marble’s natural pores, or they’re too acidic and actually damage the stone while trying to clean it. Steam cleaning reaches areas that surface cleaning misses. The combination of controlled heat, pressure, and immediate extraction pulls out embedded dirt and dissolves stubborn deposits without using harsh chemicals that can etch or discolor your marble. You’ll see the difference immediately.

What's the difference between professional and DIY steam cleaning for marble?

Professional equipment maintains precise temperature and pressure controls that prevent thermal damage to marble. Home steam cleaners often run too hot—over 300 degrees—which causes expansion, contraction, and cracking in natural stone. We use steam cleaners specifically designed for natural stone that operate at safe temperatures while still providing deep cleaning power. Our extraction systems remove dirty water immediately instead of letting it sit on the marble surface. Professional cleaning also includes proper surface preparation, protection of surrounding areas, and post-cleaning assessment. We know which marble types are more sensitive to heat and adjust accordingly. DIY cleaning often causes expensive damage that costs more to repair than professional cleaning would have cost initially.

Will steam cleaning damage my marble's finish or sealer?

Properly done professional steam cleaning won’t damage marble finishes or quality sealers. However, steam cleaning can reveal existing damage or remove old, failing sealers that weren’t providing protection anyway. We assess your marble’s current condition before cleaning and let you know if the sealer needs renewal. Sometimes what looks like cleaning damage is actually just exposing problems that were already there but hidden under dirt and buildup. If your sealer is in good condition, professional steam cleaning will clean around it without removal. If it’s failing, we’ll recommend resealing after cleaning to protect your investment. We’re honest about what your marble needs—no surprises after the work is done.

How much does professional marble steam cleaning cost in North Valley Stream?

Professional steam cleaning typically costs significantly less than marble replacement or major restoration work. Most homeowners are surprised at how affordable professional cleaning is compared to renovation costs. Pricing depends on the square footage of marble surfaces, the level of buildup, and accessibility of the areas being cleaned. Shower walls are different from large backsplashes, and heavily stained marble takes more time than routine maintenance cleaning. We provide free on-site quotes so you know exactly what you’re paying before we start. No hidden fees or surprise charges. Most North Valley Stream clients find professional cleaning costs a fraction of what they expected to spend on renovation or replacement.
