Presenting Titans Natural Stone Restoration, where we recently worked on a transformation marble floor restoration project in Newport Beach, CA. Bringing out the perfect result was not only dependent on skill but also on patience and precision. When our valued clients reached out about their darkened marble floor coated in layers of wax, we knew this project would be a remarkable before-and-after story.
The Initial Situation:
The floor in question had endured over 16 years of wax buildup, which not only dulled the natural stone but also trapped years of dirt and grime into its surface. We noticed that the wax had turned yellowish and sticky, and the floor’s true tone was completely lost. Our clients, frustrated and losing hope, wanted to restore the natural clarity and brightness of their original flooring. After our on-site assessment, we spoke to the client about the possible timeframe and offered an affordable and transparent quote, and the client immediately gave us the approval to move forward with the project.

Our Process of Restoring the Original Shine of the Floor:
At Titans Natural Stone Restoration, we specialize in marble floor refinishing and the complete restoration process, so we were well-equipped for the complexity this job presented. Having experience in dealing with similar projects in the past, we immediately followed a multi-step restoration process:
1. Wax Removal: The first stage involved manual wax removal, particularly from around the edges and tight corners, where layers had hardened over time. Only after this meticulous step did we proceed to mask the surrounding surfaces to ensure protection for the rest of the property.
2. Stripping Phase: Using our professional stripping solutions and rotary machines, we carefully stripped the entire floor. This process slowly broke down the wax buildup without damaging the stone underneath.
3. Sanding and Honing: Next, we used diamond grit sanding pads with varying intensities to hone the surface. This not only helped remove residual wax but also smoothed out minor imperfections and scratches that had developed over the years.

4. Polishing: Using high-quality polishing compounds, we brought the marble’s surface to a mirror-like sheen. This is where the magic truly began. The floor started reflecting light and showcasing its natural veining and depth.
5. Cleaning and Sealing: After polishing, we deep-cleaned every inch of the floor, including grout lines. We then applied a penetrating sealant that would protect the stone for years to come, securing the finish and preventing future damage.
The Outcome:
The final result was breathtaking. What was once a dark, wax-covered, dull surface now stood radiant, smooth, and extremely tidy. The clients were overwhelmed with joy; seeing their floor’s original charm restored brought tears to their eyes.
It can thus be concluded that this project was a proud moment for our team.
