Types of Marble and How to Care For Each
Understanding your particular marble type is essential for preserving its natural elegance and preventing common damage. Below, we explore the most popular marble varieties found in Columbus homes and businesses, along with our expert recommendations for their proper maintenance.
Carrara marble features distinctive gray veining on white backgrounds, requiring gentle cleaners and regular sealing. This classic Italian stone's subtle elegance makes it a popular choice for bathrooms and countertops. We recommend quarterly sealing and immediate cleanup of spills to prevent discoloration of its relatively porous surface.
Carrara Marble
Calacatta marble displays bold veins against pure white, needing special attention to prevent etching from acidic substances. This premium marble variety commands higher prices due to its dramatic appearance and rarity. Its increased porosity demands vigilant protection—we suggest bi-monthly sealing and daily wiping with microfiber cloths to maintain its pristine appearance.

Emperador Marble
Emperador marble comes in rich brown tones that benefit from weekly dust mopping and monthly professional cleaning. Dark marbles show scratches more readily than lighter varieties. This Spanish stone adds warmth and sophistication to any space but requires consistent maintenance to prevent dulling of its distinctive chocolate tones and fine veining.
Breccia Marble
Breccia marble contains swirls of earth tones and demands careful maintenance to preserve its intricate patterns. We recommend using pH-neutral cleaners for all marble types. This highly varied marble features fragments of multiple colors embedded in a cement-like matrix, creating unique, unrepeatable patterns that deserve specialized care to preserve their complex beauty.
Our Marble Polishing Process
Our professional marble polishing process restores the natural beauty and shine of marble floors through three carefully executed stages. We use specialized equipment and proven techniques to transform worn and dull surfaces into stunning, reflective masterpieces.
1. Initial Assessment
We begin by examining your marble floor's condition to identify scratches, stains, etching, and other damage. Our technicians measure surface roughness and evaluate the marble's specific composition to determine the appropriate restoration methods.
Each inspection includes moisture testing to detect potential subfloor issues that could affect the polishing process. We document all findings and explain our recommended treatment plan.
2. Cleaning and Grout Treatment
We remove surface dirt and debris using pH-neutral cleaners specifically formulated for natural stone. Our specialized equipment extracts embedded soil from grout lines and porous areas.
Deep stains receive targeted treatment with professional-grade poultices. We repair damaged grout and seal the lines to prevent future staining.
3. Polishing and Finishing
We employ a progressive diamond grinding system starting with coarse pads to remove deep scratches and etching. Each subsequent pad increases the surface smoothness and shine.
Our crystallization process uses steel wool pads and specialized compounds to achieve a glass-like finish. This creates a protective layer that enhances durability.
