Marble Shower Restoration – Lawrenceville, GA
Client: Private Residence
Project Overview:
A well-intentioned homeowner attempted to re-grout her father-in-law’s basement shower stall but unknowingly used sanded grout, which is too abrasive for marble surfaces. The result? Deep scratches on the marble tiles and two broken tiles that needed replacement. Realizing the complexity of the repair, she turned to N-Motion Stone and Tile Restoration to restore the shower to its original beauty.
Assessment & Solution:
After a thorough evaluation, we assured the client that the damage was fully repairable. Our restoration plan included precision repair techniques to remove the scratches, replace the damaged tiles, and restore the marble’s natural elegance.
Restoration Process:
- Protecting the Surroundings – We carefully masked and safeguarded nearby surfaces, including drywall and fixtures.
- Grout Removal – The abrasive sanded grout was meticulously removed from the marble tile joints.
- Diamond Honing – Using professional diamond honing techniques, we eliminated the deep scratches and restored a smooth finish.
- Polishing – High-quality Italian marble polish was applied to bring back the luxurious, high-gloss finish.
- Tile Replacement – The broken tiles were seamlessly replaced to match the surrounding marble.
- Deep Cleaning & Sealing – The entire shower was thoroughly cleaned with alkaline-based cleaners before applying a penetrating sealer for long-term protection.
- Re-Grouting & Caulking – This time, we used non-sanded grout, ideal for marble surfaces, and sealed all vertical joints with silicone caulk for a watertight finish.
The Results:
The transformation was nothing short of remarkable. What once appeared damaged beyond repair was restored to a pristine, like-new condition. The client was amazed at how the scratches and damage had completely disappeared, leaving behind a stunning marble shower that looked as if no mishap had ever occurred.
