How much does marble restoration cost in Toronto?

Most home marble restoration in the GTA costs $2.50 to $20 per square foot, depending on the damage and the finish. Small jobs have a $750 minimum. Removing etches, water rings, and stains, and re-polishing dull stone, fall in the middle of that range. Chips, cracks, and jobs with several problems cost the most.

Is restoring marble cheaper than replacing it?

Almost always. Restoration usually costs $2.50 to $20 per square foot. Replacing marble costs $110 to $220 per square foot, before tear-out, disposal, plumbing, and the time the room is out of use. On a typical kitchen or vanity, restoring often costs a fifth to a tenth of replacing.

What affects the price of a stone restoration quote?

The type of stone, the area, the kind of damage and how bad it is, how shiny you want the finish, access and floor protection, and whether it's a home or a commercial building. Sealing and regular maintenance are usually quoted separately.

Do you charge for a quote or assessment?

No, it's free. Send photos and measurements and we'll give you a price range before anyone visits. We give a firm price once we've seen the stone and the damage in person.

How much does it cost to replace stone instead?

Replacement is priced per square foot of new stone, plus a flat charge for tear-out and disposal. Expect $1,200 to $2,800 for tear-out on a counter or vanity, $1,800 to $4,500 for a home floor, and $3,500 to $12,000 for commercial lobbies and common areas. All of that is on top of the new slab or tile.
