Marble Restoration
Unlike stains, discoloration, and water spots, restoring etching on marble countertops can be very difficult to address. This is primarily because etched marks are the result of acidic substances, such as chemical cleaning solutions or other products corroding the marble. Etching on marble can be quite common on kitchen countertops and bathroom vanities. The main reason for this is that most individuals are unaware traditional, household cleaners can actually harm the marble surface over time. As the acids penetrate the marble stone, the surface will eventually corrode and the appearance of the marble significantly dulls. Also, because marble is a soft natural stone, there is a greater risk of etching occurring over time. No matter the severity of your marble countertop or vanity’s etch marks, invest in quality marble restoration services to buff and refinish the countertop surface to bring them back to their original luster.
Benefits of Our Professional Marble Countertop Restoration Services
1. Clean Marble Stains
Grout and rust stains can be quite difficult and often times, almost impossible without professional marble restoration assistance. Scrubbing the stain or using the wrong cleaning detergent increases the risk of scratching and causes other imperfections. With calcium bicarbonate being the the main compound in marble, only a select few chemicals should be used for stain removal. Our professionals can restore your marble countertops by efficiently taking care of these stains with our top-of-the-line equipment.
2. Etch Marks Removal
Soft marble is prone to scratching and other marks. Removing these blemishes to obtain a smooth, radiant look can be very difficult for an untrained hand. Hiring our professionals for polishing can help get rid of these marks and other imperfections much better than a do-it-yourself person. They will do everything from grinding, honing, polishing, and even buffing to restore the original shine of the marble surface.
3. Convenience
Although you might be diligent at keeping your surfaces clean, there are times when an expert’s help is essential. Using professional marble countertop restoration services can save you the time you would have otherwise spent doing it yourself. Additionally, having an expert work on the surfaces can potentially restore them to their former glory.
