High gloss and low gloss marble is one of the most stunning natural stones there is. Whether they be used on your floor, countertop, or even as wall claddings. But marble has a high-maintenance surface and it needs lots of TLC coming from you!

That is where Life Style Marble Restoration comes in — providing you with the best professional high and low gloss cleaning and restoration services.

There are two main types of marble based on their sheen:

• High gloss
• Low gloss

High gloss marble has a glossy and highly reflective finish. This is used to enhance the beauty and looks of marble surfaces so that it’ll look brighter and more striking. Meanwhile, low glass marble creates a more subtle shine. This is ideal for those who want a softer tone on their marble surface.

Our expert team of professional marble restoration technicians can bring back the original beauty and shimmer of your marble. Whether it be in varying finishes.

Life Style Marble Restoration uses premium solutions and state-of-the-art equipment to restore marble surfaces in varying finishes. We do not use harsh chemicals as these can damage the stones and leave behind permanent nudges and swirl marks.

With over 10 years of expert professional service in marble restoration and polishing, we can assure you that you’ll have your good ‘ole marble looking sparkling new again.

What is High Gloss Polished Marble

High gloss polished marble has a highly reflective surface that easily reflects light that comes into your room where the marble is in.

It also has a very smooth texture that complements the mirror finish. We use commercial-grade diamond abrasive pads and premium polishing compounds to create the best finish for your marble.

Having a glossy finish also accentuates the marble’s natural grain and makes its colours more vibrant.

Knowing More About Low Gloss Polished Marble

Life Style Marble Restoration is an expert in creating a low gloss marble finish. We do this by creating a low sheen appearance on marble surfaces which syncs well with its smooth texture.

However, this type of finish is more porous and can easily stain. But you don’t need to worry about that because we use a premium penetrating sealer for added protection.

Aside from marble, low gloss finishes are also common on limestone and travertine surfaces used on floors, countertops, and bathroom claddings.

High Gloss vs Low Gloss Marble: Key Factors to Consider

Aesthetics

Before you choose which type of sheen finish you want us to work on your marble, it’s first important to consider a few factors when choosing between different glosses.

First off is aesthetics. High gloss finish is what you need if you prioritize aesthetics over anything else. These have a highly reflective finish and is very glossy, while low gloss has a bit of controlled nudge to it, similar to a matte finish. 

Glossy marble is more eye-catching and can easily reflect light from different angles. This makes it a better choice if you also want to improve your room’s lighting.

We suggest you go for a high gloss finish for residential marble surfaces and low gloss for commercial. Having low gloss finish in commercial establishments is logical because it doesn’t reflect light too much, making it more conducive for work.

Maintenance

High gloss marble can easily show dirt and grime, especially if it’s on the floor. However, Life Style Marble Restoration’s marble cleaning and restoration services can help you with this. Our premium marble coating makes your floor and marble surfaces much easier to clean.

On the other hand, low gloss marble is better at concealing dust and smudges. This happens because it easily disperses light thanks to its low-reflective finish. These are better at hiding scuffs and scratches, making it a better option for high-activity areas.

High gloss marble can easily show fingerprints, smudges, and footprints more easily compared to low gloss surfaces. Hence, regular polishing is required if you want to maintain a high gloss finish.

Safety

Another thing you need to consider is safety. If you want to ensure utmost safety, then having a low gloss finish is what you need.

The lower shine capability of matte and low gloss coatings is safer because this doesn’t create any glare. This can impair the vision of residents who have neurological impairments and disabilities, specifically aged people.

Glare lighting can cause balance loss and can lead to potential slips. So, if you have elderly people living in the house, it’s best to choose low gloss so that they won’t slip or fall down.

Life Style Marble Restoration can make your home safer. It does this by adding a natural traction additive coating that is less reflective and shiny. These are formulated to meet ADA protocols thanks to their non-slip traction surface. These coating additives are also vital to areas that are prone to moisture such as kitchen and bathroom floors.

High gloss finish is ideal for various interior design applications like bathrooms, kitchen countertops, and entryways. Its glossy and highly reflective finish makes it an eye catching option for people who want to turn their interior area more striking and eye catching.

Having a high gloss finish can also make your room look bigger and more spacious because it reflects more light.

High gloss marble comes in many different patterns and colors, so it’s the best choice if you want better customization and personalization options.

On the other end of the spectrum is low gloss finish which is ideal for those who prioritize safety above anything else.

The surface of low gloss marble isn’t as slippery as its high gloss counterpart because it is less reflective and has a coarser surface texture. It’s also great if you want to hide small imperfections such as small scratches, nudges, or even etches on walls because of its semi-rough texture.

Life Style Marble Restoration recommends low glass marble for flooring on your kitchen and bathroom because these areas are prone to moisture. Wet high gloss floors are very slippery especially if water is accidentally poured onto it.
