Your Marble Survived the Storm.
Let’s Get It Back to Normal.
Water intrusion, salt spray, storm surge, and debris impact leave marks on marble, travertine, and terrazzo that go far beyond a normal cleaning. We assess the actual damage, document it for your insurance claim, and restore the stone — not replace it — across South Florida.

What Happens Once We’re On Site
Storm damage isn’t a normal restoration job — moisture, safety, and your insurance timeline all matter before we touch a polishing pad. Here’s the order we work in.
We Identify What’s Actually Wrong
Staining, pitting, cracking, and efflorescence can look similar but need different fixes. We assess the stone in person, check for trapped moisture, and tell you honestly what’s cosmetic versus what needs attention first.
Photos & Written Scope for Your Claim
We photograph the damage before any work begins and put the scope in writing — documentation you can submit with your insurance claim. We’re not a public adjuster and don’t negotiate with your insurer, but we give you what you need to make your case.
No Surprises Once Work Begins
You get an exact price before anything starts — no open-ended “we’ll see how it goes” billing on a claim you’re already managing enough of.
Honed, Filled, Polished, Resealed
Staining is stripped, pitting filled, cracks repaired, and the stone resealed with a penetrating sealer rated for salt and moisture exposure — so the same storm doesn’t do the same damage next season.
What We See Most
After a Storm
Every one of these is restorable. None of it means the stone needs to be torn out and replaced.
Water Staining & Cloudiness
Standing water leaves cloudy, discolored marble and travertine — stripped back and repolished to its original clarity.
Pitting & Efflorescence
Storm surge and salt-laden rain pit travertine and pull white mineral staining to the surface as the stone dries.
Cracks & Chips
Wind-driven debris and shifting during a storm chip and crack marble and terrazzo — filled and refinished to match.
Grout Discoloration
Dark, damp grout lines are often the first sign of trapped moisture — cleaned, treated, and resealed before it spreads.
Compromised Sealer
If storm exposure broke down the existing seal, unprotected stone absorbs moisture and stains faster next time — resealed with product rated for the exposure.
Storm-Damaged Outdoor Stone
Pool decks and terraces take the worst of a storm — pitted, stained, and etched travertine restored and resealed for the next season.
The Damage You See Isn’t the Whole Story
Cosmetic staining is the easy part. What happens underneath the stone in the days after a storm is what determines how big the job becomes.
Moisture Trapped Under Stone
Water that gets under marble or travertine and stays there is how mold and subfloor damage start — often invisible until it’s a much bigger job.
Salt Damage Compounds Over Time
Efflorescence and pitting get worse with every dry-and-wet cycle. Addressed early, it’s a polish and reseal. Left through another season, it’s deeper etching.
Insurance Documentation Fades
Adjusters want to see damage close to the event, not weeks later after it’s been cleaned up or has visibly progressed. Early documentation supports a cleaner claim.
What Homeowners
Ask Us First
Water sat on my marble floor for two days after the storm. Is it ruined?
Almost never permanently. Standing water usually causes staining, cloudiness, and grout discoloration — all correctable. The bigger risk is waiting: the longer moisture sits under stone or in grout lines, the more likely mold and efflorescence (white mineral staining) become. The sooner we assess it, the simpler the fix.
Can you document the damage for my insurance claim?
Yes. We photograph the stone before we touch it, note the visible damage in writing, and provide that documentation for you to submit with your claim. We’re not a public adjuster and don’t negotiate with your insurer, but we give you the evidence and a clear scope of work to support your claim.
My travertine pool deck has new pitting and white staining since the storm. What happened?
That’s typically salt-laden rain and storm surge spray reacting with the calcium in travertine, and efflorescence pulling mineral salts to the surface as the stone dries. Both are treatable — we strip the staining, fill new pitting, and reseal with a sealer rated for the salt exposure that caused it.
How fast can you come out after a storm?
We prioritize storm-damage assessments during active season. Call us directly rather than booking online during a high-volume week — we’ll give you an honest timeline up front, and flag anything that needs mitigation (drying, mold prevention) before cosmetic restoration begins.
Is it safe to just clean it myself and wait?
For a quick wipe-down, sure — but avoid bleach or acidic cleaners on marble, travertine, or limestone; they etch the surface and make the eventual restoration harder. If grout or stone stayed wet for more than 24–48 hours, have it assessed before sealing anything yourself, since trapped moisture under a fresh seal is how mold problems start.
How does pricing work?
We assess the stone in person, explain exactly what storm damage occurred and what it needs, and give you an exact written price before any work begins. Assessments are free and carry no obligation.
