A marble vanity can take a lot of damage in a short time. From etches to accidental scratches, their surfaces are prone to marks that are difficult to conceal. A homeowner in Southbury, CT, had tried to remove the signs of etching on her bathroom's vanity top. Most of the Carrara marble surface was covered in dull marks and rings, leaving an unsightly appearance that was very discouraging.


The homeowner didn't give up. She tried new cleaning products some acquaintances had recommended, and when that didn't work, she didn't wait for the problem to get worse. After searching for Southbury Stone Polishing services online, she found Sir Grout Hartford. After looking through our website, seeing all our areas of expertise and the quality of our results, the homeowner was confident that we could restore her vanity top.

Following her request, our local Sir Grout owner went to her residence a few days later for an in-home evaluation. They started inspecting the vanity's surface to check the extent of the damage. There were etch marks all over the marble surface, and the vanity top had lost all its shine. Our specialists went over the client's cleaning routine, which included various traditional cleaning products and the occasional mix of vinegar and water. Our techs explained that these products can chemically etch the surface of the marble and dull the shine. Luckily, we had the perfect restoration expertise to solve the problem and prevent provide the homeowner with cleaning recommendations to help prevent new stains in the future. Our specialists needed Sir Grout's professional equipment to clean the vanity properly. They also had to diamond hone and polish marble to restore its shine.

To finish the process, our techs applied a coat of Stone Armor penetrating sealant on the newly restored surface.
