Replacing stone countertops can cost thousands of dollars and leave your kitchen out of commission for days or even weeks. In most cases, the stone itself is still in great shape.

Granite Countertop Polishing

Granite is one of the hardest, most durable countertop materials, but its polished finish can still dull over time, especially in high-use areas around the sink and stove. Harsh cleaners can also break down the sealer, leaving the stone more likely to absorb oil and water stains. We deep clean, polish, and reseal granite to bring back its rich color and glossy finish.

Marble Countertop Polishing

Marble is a softer, calcium-based stone, which makes it especially sensitive to acids. Coffee, wine, citrus, tomato sauce, and many common household cleaners can leave dull, whitish etch marks on the surface. Our marble polishing process hones away light etching and fine scratches, then polishes the stone back to an even, reflective shine. If your marble has deep etching or chips, we’ll let you know upfront what can be restored.

Quartz Countertop Cleaning & Polishing

Quartz countertops are engineered from crushed quartz and resin, so they need different care than natural stone. Quartz doesn’t need to be sealed, and its finish can be damaged by aggressive abrasives, high heat, or harsh chemicals. We use quartz-safe cleaners and polishing compounds to remove haze, stubborn residue, and light surface marks, restoring a clean, uniform shine.

Limestone Countertop Polishing

Limestone brings a soft, natural warmth to kitchens and bathrooms, but it’s porous and, like marble, reacts to acids. That makes it prone to etching, staining, and wear. We carefully clean, hone, and polish limestone to the finish you prefer, from a soft matte hone to a subtle sheen, then apply a penetrating sealer to help guard against future stains.

1. Inspection: We identify your stone type, check the condition of the surface, and point out any etching, stains, scratches, or chips so you know exactly what to expect before we begin.

2. Deep Cleaning: We remove grease, soap scum, mineral deposits, and built-up residue that dull the surface and trap grime.

3. Honing & Polishing: Using diamond pads and polishing compounds matched to your stone, we smooth out light etching and wear marks, then polish the surface to an even, consistent finish.

4. Sealing: For granite, marble, and limestone, we apply a quality penetrating sealer to help repel water, oil, and everyday spills. Quartz is non-porous and doesn’t require sealing.

5. Care Tips: Before we leave, we’ll share simple daily care tips to help your countertops stay beautiful between professional visits.

How often should stone countertops be polished?

Most kitchen countertops benefit from professional polishing every one to three years, depending on how heavily they’re used. Marble and limestone etch more easily, so they may need attention more often than granite or quartz.

Can you remove etch marks from marble?

Yes. Light to moderate etching can usually be honed and polished away. Deeper etches may require additional honing, and we’ll assess the damage before we start.

How often should granite be sealed?

It depends on the stone and how it’s used, but many granite countertops benefit from resealing every one to three years. A quick test: place a few drops of water on the surface. If the stone darkens or absorbs the water within several minutes, it’s time to reseal.

Do quartz countertops need to be sealed?

No. Quartz is non-porous, so it doesn’t require sealing. Regular cleaning with a gentle, pH-neutral cleaner and occasional professional care will keep it looking its best.

How long does countertop polishing take?

Most residential kitchens can be completed in a few hours, depending on the size of the countertops, the type of stone, and the level of restoration needed. Sealers need time to cure, so we’ll let you know when it’s safe to use your counters normally.

What should I use to clean my stone countertops?

Use warm water and a pH-neutral cleaner made for natural stone. Avoid vinegar, lemon juice, bleach, ammonia, and abrasive scrubbers, which can dull or etch the surface and wear down the sealer.
