Over time, even the most durable granite countertops can lose their shine due to daily wear, spills, and surface scratches. At Granite Prestige, we specialize in re-polishing and re-sealing granite surfaces to restore their original luster and protect them for years to come.
Our process removes a thin, damaged layer of stone — eliminating dull spots, etching, and minor blemishes — and reveals a smooth, glossy, like-new finish beneath. Once polished, the granite is carefully re-sealed to maintain its beauty and safeguard against stains, moisture, and everyday wear.
Most countertops only need professional re-polishing every 5 to 15 years, depending on how much use they get.
Our Granite Restoration Process
Step 1: Assessment
Every project begins with a detailed evaluation of your stone surface. We identify problem areas such as scratches, dull spots, or minor chips, and determine the best polishing technique for your specific granite type and finish.
Step 2: Surface Preparation
The countertop is thoroughly cleaned to remove residue, grease, or sealant buildup. We then mask surrounding areas to ensure your walls, cabinets, and fixtures remain completely protected during the polishing process.
Step 3: Re-Polishing
Using professional-grade equipment and diamond polishing pads, we gradually refine the surface of the granite. This step removes imperfections, levels uneven areas, and restores the stone’s natural reflection and depth. Depending on the condition and type of granite, we’ll choose between wet polishing for a high-gloss finish or dry polishing for precise touch-ups.
Step 4: Final Buffing
Once the polishing stage is complete, the surface is buffed to enhance its clarity and gloss, resulting in a flawless, mirror-like sheen.
Step 5: Re-Sealing
To preserve your newly polished granite, we apply a premium penetrating sealer that absorbs deep into the stone. This protective barrier guards against oil, wine, water, and other common household stains, while allowing the granite to breathe naturally.
Step 6: Finishing Touches
We complete the process with a thorough inspection and cleaning, ensuring your countertops not only look stunning but are ready for everyday use.
