This marble furniture tops restoration addressed chipped edges, small indentations, surface scratches and ingrained dirt. The customer wanted to keep the existing stone and its aged character rather than replace the tops.
For that reason, the team cleaned the marble, carried out colour-matched repairs and finished the surface to suit the surrounding stone. The video and photographs show the pieces and the result.
Customer request
The customer asked us to repair chips around the marble furniture tops as discreetly as possible, remove ingrained dirt and scratches, and protect the stone while keeping its aged patina.
The existing marble had character worth retaining. The aim was a sympathetic restoration, with repairs and a finish that blended with the surrounding surface.
Restoration process
First, the team deep-cleaned the marble tops to remove ingrained dirt and old surface polish. Next, they filled chips and indentations with a colour-matched polyester repair material. Then, they removed excess material and polished the repairs to blend with the surrounding marble.
After polishing, the team applied an impregnating sealer. Finally, they finished the tops with carnauba wax to achieve the satin appearance the customer requested. They chose this finish to retain the character of these furniture tops. For other marble surfaces, the team assesses the stone and its use before recommending products or a care routine.
