Countertop Stain Removal in Summerlin, NV
Custom poultice formulations matched to the stain type and stone. Oil, wine, rust, and hard water stains each require a different chemistry to extract.
Is Your Countertop Showing Damage?
Stone countertop stains penetrate below the surface, which is why wiping and scrubbing don't remove them. Oil stains darken the stone, organic stains discolor it, and rust stains leave orange-brown marks. Each stain type requires a specific poultice formulation to draw the stain out of the stone's pores without damaging the surface. In Summerlin, hard water staining is an additional constant challenge.
We identify the stain type and formulate a custom poultice that draws the discoloration out of the stone's pores over 24-48 hours. After extraction, we polish the area to blend it seamlessly with the surrounding surface and apply a sealer to prevent future staining. Most stains we encounter in Summerlin kitchens can be fully removed.

Marble Stain Removal in Summerlin
Marble is porous. Oil, wine, coffee, and colored liquids soak in fast if the sealer has worn off. The stain sits inside the stone where wiping cannot reach it.
We use poultices formulated for marble's chemistry to draw stains out. After extraction, we polish and seal the area to prevent future staining.

Granite Stain Removal in Summerlin
Granite is less porous than marble, but if the sealer has failed, oil and colored liquids still soak in. Dark spots around cooking areas are the most common granite stain.
We match the poultice chemistry to the stain type. Oil stains, organic stains, and rust stains each need different treatment. After extraction, we polish and re-seal.

Hard Water Stain Removal in Summerlin
Las Vegas water is some of the hardest in the country. Calcium and mineral deposits build up around sinks and faucets, creating white rings and haze that regular cleaning will not touch.
We use a combination of safe acid treatments and diamond honing to remove hard water buildup from stone surfaces. After removal, we seal to slow future accumulation.

Countertop Sealing After Stain Removal in Summerlin
After extracting a stain, the stone is open and vulnerable. We seal immediately after stain removal to prevent the same thing from happening again.
We apply an impregnating sealer that protects from the inside. This is the most important step after stain removal, especially in Summerlin where sealers wear out faster.

Our Stain Removal Process
From assessment to final seal, here's what to expect.
Stain Identification
We identify the stain type (oil-based, organic, metallic, or mineral) because each requires a different chemical approach for safe, complete removal.
Custom Poultice Preparation
We prepare a poultice matched to the stain type. This drawing agent pulls the stain out of the stone's pores over a 12-24 hour period.
Poultice Application & Extraction
The poultice is applied, covered, and left to work. For deep stains, multiple applications may be needed until the stain is fully extracted.
Polish & Seal
After stain removal, the area is polished to match the surrounding surface and sealed to prevent future stain penetration.

Why Summerlin Stone Needs Extra Care
The desert environment creates challenges that homeowners in other regions don't face.
Hard Water Staining
Las Vegas water is among the hardest in the US. Mineral deposits leave white stains on countertops that resist normal cleaning and require professional treatment.
Rapid Stain Absorption
In Summerlin's dry climate, sealers degrade faster, leaving stone unprotected. Spills absorb quickly into unsealed stone, creating deeper stains that are harder to remove.
Poolside & BBQ Stains
Summerlin's outdoor living means outdoor kitchen countertops face food, grease, and pool chemical stains that indoor surfaces don't encounter.
Improper Cleaning Products
Many homeowners use acidic, alkaline, or abrasive cleaners not designed for natural stone. These products strip sealers, etch calcium-based stones, and dull polished finishes faster than normal wear and tear.

Countertop Stain Removal FAQs - Summerlin, NV
Can you remove oil stains from marble countertops?
Yes. Oil stains require an alkaline-based poultice that draws the oil out of the marble's pores. Most oil stains can be fully removed in 1-2 poultice applications, though deep or old stains may need additional treatments.
How much does countertop stain removal cost?
Stain removal in Summerlin typically costs anywhere between $500-$1,200 depending on the stain type, depth, and number of affected areas. Hard water stain removal across an entire countertop costs more than treating a single oil spot.
Can hard water stains be permanently removed?
Yes. We remove hard water mineral deposits through a combination of acid-safe treatments and diamond honing. After removal, we seal the stone and recommend regular maintenance to prevent recurrence.
How long does stain removal take?
Most stain removal requires 1-2 visits. The poultice needs 12-24 hours to draw out the stain, so we typically apply it on the first visit and remove/evaluate on the second. Simple stains may be resolved in a single visit.
