Scratch Removal, done the right way.
Scratch removal is spot refinishing — abrading a scratched area back below the depth of the scratch and re-building the finish to match the surrounding floor. On stone that is a localised grit sequence; on wood it is careful sanding and re-coating of the affected boards or zone. Done well, the repair disappears.
Because marble reacts to acid, even weak ones — lemon, vinegar, wine, many household cleaners — leave dull etch marks that no amount of buffing removes. It is also porous, so spills that sit soak in and stain. A professionally polished and sealed marble floor resists both far better and is far easier to keep clean.
The process
How marble scratch removal works.
Step 01
Assess depth
We check whether the scratch is in the finish only or into the material, which decides how much has to come off.
Step 02
Cut back
The area is abraded past the base of the scratch with the appropriate diamonds or sandpaper, feathered into the surrounding surface.
Step 03
Rebuild finish
The area is honed and polished (stone) or re-coated (wood) through to the matching sheen.
Step 04
Blend & seal
Edges are blended so there is no visible border, and the spot is re-sealed.

The result you get.
- ✓Removes unsightly scratches without refinishing the whole room
- ✓Matched sheen so the repair is invisible
- ✓Quick — most spot repairs are a single visit
- ✓Stops a scratch in the finish from letting moisture into the material
When you need it
Is this the right service?
Use spot scratch removal for isolated damage — a dragged furniture leg, pet claws, a dropped knife, grit gouges by a doorway — on a floor that is otherwise in good order.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions, answered.
Will the repaired spot be noticeable?
When it is done properly, no — the area is feathered out and finished to the same sheen. Very deep gouges may leave a faint shadow but are dramatically improved.
My marble floor has dull, cloudy traffic lanes where the shine has walked off — can scratch removal fix that?
Yes — that is exactly what scratch removal addresses on marble floor. We confirm the cause on the free site visit and quote the fix in writing. Use spot scratch removal for isolated damage — a dragged furniture leg, pet claws, a dropped knife, grit gouges by a doorway — on a floor that is otherwise in good order.
How do I keep my marble floor looking good afterwards?
The essentials: use only pH-neutral stone cleaner — never vinegar, lemon or generic floor cleaner; wipe acidic spills (juice, wine, coffee, alcohol) immediately. We leave you a written care plan for the specific finish.
