Is countertop restoration cheaper than replacement?
Yes — dramatically. Countertop restoration typically costs 10–20% of replacement. A new marble or granite countertop installation runs $3,000–$15,000+ depending on stone selection and complexity, plus demolition, plumbing disconnect/reconnect, and downtime.

What types of countertops does Rose Restoration restore?
Rose Restoration restores marble, granite, quartzite, travertine, limestone, soapstone, and natural-stone countertops, including kitchen counters, bathroom vanities, bar tops, conference tables, and hospitality counters. For ongoing protection, Rose also installs Marble Armor — a proprietary 10-year invisible countertop protection treatment.
Does Rose Restoration offer free countertop estimates in DC?
Yes. Rose Restoration provides free in-person countertop assessments throughout Washington DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia. Most residential countertop restoration is completed in a single 2–4 hour visit with no demolition, no dust, and no plumbing disconnect required.
Can etched, stained, or chipped countertops be restored?
Yes. Etching (common on marble from acidic spills) is removed with diamond honing and polishing. Stains are drawn out with poultice applications and followed by impregnating sealer. Chips are repaired with color-matched epoxy resin, shaped and polished to match the original profile. Most repairs are complete in under two hours and are virtually undetectable.
