Best Marble Repair &
Polishing That Makes YourStone Look New Again.

It depends on the square footage, the stone type, the finish you want, and how much damage has to come off before the polish goes on. A single vanity top and a 500-square-foot lobby floor are very different jobs, so we don't quote either one over the phone. Marble Best gives a fixed-price written quote after a free on-site assessment — the number you are quoted is the number you pay, with no hourly billing and no change orders partway through.

Repair is almost always the lower-cost option, and in most cases it is also the better result. Replacement means tearing out and re-installing stone, which is slower, far more expensive, and rarely matches the surrounding floor or counter exactly. Marble Best restores the surface you already have, so the finish stays uniform with the stone around it. If replacement genuinely is the right call for your property, we will tell you so at the assessment rather than sell you work you don't need.

For most properties inside our service area, we can be on site within a few days of your call. Estimates are turned around fast, and most jobs are scheduled and completed quickly once you approve the quote. Commercial work is often booked outside business hours so your space stays open, which can shift the start date by a day or two depending on the schedule you need.

A residential countertop, vanity or bathroom is typically finished in a single visit. A residential floor usually takes one to two days depending on square footage and finish. You do not need to leave the property. Commercial floors and lobbies are usually completed in phases so the space stays usable throughout, and we agree the schedule with you before any work begins.

Marble Best does both. We work in homes, and we also handle commercial stone — building and hotel lobbies, retail floors, offices, restaurants and bars. Commercial work is normally phased overnight or outside your operating hours so your business stays open, and we schedule it around your tenants and customers rather than the other way around.

Yes, and this is one of the most common reasons customers call us. Matching an existing polished or honed finish on older or unusual stone is routine work for our crews. We confirm the match on an out-of-the-way area first so you can see the result before any large surface is committed to. That way you approve the finish before the bulk of the work starts.

Marble Best serves New York City and the surrounding metro area, Long Island including Nassau and Suffolk County, New Jersey, and Connecticut. If your property falls inside that footprint, we can normally be on site within a few days of your call. Not sure whether you are in range? Call (844) 697-6277 and we will confirm on the spot.

Yes. We use our own crews and our own diamond grinding, honing and polishing equipment — we don't subcontract your job out. That matters on stone work, because the result depends on the operator's experience as much as the machine. Every technician we send is fully insured, and the same crew that assesses your stone is the one that restores it.

An experienced technician comes to the property at no charge, identifies your stone type, inspects the etching, lippage and staining, and confirms what the surface can realistically achieve. You receive a written fixed-price quote with the scope spelled out. There is no obligation to book after the assessment, and no deposit is required to get the quote.

General cleaners work on the surface of the stone. Marble Best restores the stone itself. We use diamond abrasives to remove the damaged layer and bring the finish back, then apply an impregnating sealer — the same process used on commercial stone. With 27 years restoring stone across the tri-state area, since 1998, we are a specialist restoration company, not a cleaning service that also offers polishing.

Both are diamond processes and both restore the stone — the difference is the finish they leave. Polishing takes the surface to a high, mirror-like shine. Honing stops at a lower grit for a matte, satin finish that reflects light softly rather than sharply. Marble Best offers both, and the choice usually comes down to where the stone is: honed finishes are popular in bathrooms, kitchens and busy entries because they hide etching and fingerprints far better than a high polish. We confirm the finish you want on a test area before any large surface is committed to, so you approve the result before the bulk of the work starts.

Yes — stain and etch removal is one of Marble Best's core services. Acid etching, water rings, wine, oil and other staining are ground out and blended back into the surrounding stone so the repair is invisible rather than sitting on the surface as a patch. Etching is a dull mark where acid has eaten into the stone, and it cannot be wiped or cleaned away — but it can be ground out and repolished, which is what we do. We assess how deep the damage runs during the free on-site estimate and confirm what the surface can realistically achieve.

Yes. Marble Best repairs cracks, chips, broken corners and missing pieces in marble, travertine and other natural stone. The damage is filled with color-matched epoxy and stone dust, then ground flush with the surrounding surface and blended into the veining, so the repair disappears rather than reading as a visible patch. This is one of the most common reasons customers call us, and it is usually far less expensive than replacing the stone — replacement means tearing out and re-installing, which is slower, costlier, and rarely matches the surrounding floor or counter exactly.

Yes. Marble Best cleans and restores grout alongside the stone it surrounds. Grout lines are usually where a floor, shower or backsplash looks tired first — they discolour, hold dirt and can fail over time — and restoring them together with the stone is what makes the whole surface read as new rather than only the tiles. Grout work is quoted as part of the same fixed-price written estimate as the rest of the job.

Yes. Marble Best works on marble, travertine, limestone, granite, onyx, terrazzo and concrete. Each stone responds differently to abrasives, so the grinding, honing and polishing sequence is specified per stone type rather than applied generically. A technician identifies your stone during the free on-site assessment and confirms the finish it can realistically take before any work begins.

Yes. Floor grinding and leveling is one of Marble Best's services. Lippage is the height difference between adjacent tiles — it catches light, collects dirt and makes a floor feel uneven underfoot. We grind the surface flat across the affected area, then hone and polish so the floor is level and the finish is uniform, without replacing the stone.

No. Marble Best uses a wet process — water runs continuously across the surface while the diamond abrasives work, which means no dust is created and the property stays clean during the job. There is no dry grinding and no cloud of stone dust to settle through your home or building. It also means the work is safe to carry out in occupied properties, including commercial spaces that stay open.

Yes. An impregnating sealer is applied and buffed in as the final stage of the work. A penetrating sealer soaks into the stone rather than sitting on top of it, and blocks spills from soaking in — which is what gives you working time to wipe a spill up before it becomes an oil stain or a water ring. Marble Best walks the finished work with you and leaves simple aftercare instructions so the finish holds for years. Sealing is included in the fixed-price written quote rather than added as an extra.
