Marble showers, stripped of the film and resealed.
The cloudy layer that makes dark marble look grey is soap and mineral deposit, not damage to the stone. It strips back. The sealer underneath it has usually failed, which is why it built up in the first place.
Before
AfterHow a shower job runs.
Shower walls in natural stone need a sealer that actually works and a cleaner that does not attack it. When either fails, a film of soap, shampoo and hard-water minerals builds until the stone looks dull and the veining disappears. A stone-safe strip removes the film, the surface is restored, and a penetrating sealer is applied so it does not come back as fast.
- Soap and mineral film stripped with a stone-safe cleaner
- Surface restored and dried
- Grout cleaned and resealed
- Walls and floor sealed against future build-up
How it is priced.
No rate card, because no two surfaces are the same. The price comes from the photos and the job in front of us, and what could change it is written into the quote.
As a room. Floor, vanity and shower walls in one visit and one figure, because the set-up is the expensive part. Where the finish is hard to predict, a small patch somewhere out of sight is restored and shown to you before the rest.
Questions about showers.
What is wrong with it
Other surfaces
My marble shower looks cloudy. Is it ruined?
Almost certainly not. The cloudy film on a marble shower is soap, shampoo and hard-water mineral build-up sitting on the surface, not damage to the stone. Read the full answer
How often should marble be sealed?
It depends on the surface and what it takes. A kitchen benchtop or a shower, which see acid, oil and water daily, are usually resealed every twelve months. Read the full answer
What causes water marks on marble, and do they come out?
Water marks on marble are usually one of two things, and both come out. Around a basin or on a shower ledge, a white ring or haze is mineral deposit from hard water evaporating, which strips off. Read the full answer
