Marble Restoration

A restored stone floor will look as good — or better — than the day it was installed.

Natural stone surfaces are porous and can lose their luster and value due to damage resulting from foot traffic, spills, acidic cleaners, and every day wear.

All natural stones are porous by nature, which means they need to be sealed regularly to prevent staining. Natural stones that are placed in a high moisture area such as showers and countertops need to be sealed more often. The schedule for re-sealing natural stone depends on several factors such as amount of use, hardness of water in the area/city and the types of chemicals used or that come in direct contact with natural stone surfaces.

Our Techniques

We can restore your stone back to its original beauty using one or more of the following:

Polishing (Scratch and Etch Removal) – Light surface scratches and some mild etching can be polished out using different polishing compounds or professional products designed for this purpose.
Diamond Refinishing – Prestige Grout & Tile also believes in a natural finish and does not use waxes or other surface coatings on polished stone, but uses a diamond refinishing process to achieve the desired finish including a high gloss polish.
Stain Removal – Stone and other natural surfaces are porous and can stain easily if not properly sealed. Determining the type of stain and choosing the correct chemicals and poultice materials are key to the removal of stains.
Repair – Cracks, chips, grout removal? No problem. We use synthetic polyesters for the repair of marble, granite and all natural stone to give it that natural stone look instead of looking like a repair.

Why Choose Prestige for Marble Work

True diamond refinishing, never waxes or coatings. We restore the stone itself mechanically with diamonds, so the shine is natural and lasts. Waxes and topical coatings just cover the problem and wear off.
Edges detailed by hand. Most companies skip the edges and corners because machines can’t reach them. We finish them by hand, so the whole floor matches, wall to wall.
Your choice of finish. Honed (matte), satin or high polish. We’ll show you the options and match the look you want.
Protection that lasts. For countertops we recommend MORE AntiEtch, which comes with a lifetime warranty against etching and staining. Floors and other areas are sealed after polishing.

Cost and Timing

Marble floor polishing is typically around $5 per square foot, and marble countertops around $30 per square foot. Minimum charges apply. Most jobs are finished in a single day, and floors are walkable right away, unless regrouting is done at the same time. Request a free quote.
