Expert Stone Repair Services
Granite Polishing in Las Vegas
Granite countertops lose their shine over time from hard water, oil stains, and sealer failure. We restore the original luster with professional polishing and seal to protect your investment.
About This Service
Granite is one of the hardest natural stones, but that doesn't mean it stays looking new forever. Daily use, hard water deposits around sinks, oil absorption near cooking areas, and failed sealers all contribute to dull, tired-looking countertops. The good news: granite responds well to professional polishing. We restore clarity and depth that cleaning can't achieve, then seal with premium impregnating sealers for lasting protection.
Signs Your Granite Needs Professional Attention
Visual indicators that indicate it's time for restoration
- Granite looks dull even after cleaning
- Dark spots that take a long time to dry
- White crusty buildup around the faucet
- Water no longer beads on the surface
- Uneven sheen across different areas
- Stains that don't respond to household cleaners
Why Granite Loses Shine in Las Vegas
Las Vegas conditions create unique challenges for natural stone
- 278 PPM hard water leaves mineral deposits that dull the surface over time
- Builder-grade sealers used during construction fail within 6-12 months
- Dry desert air causes oils to concentrate and penetrate faster
- UV exposure from large windows can degrade sealers near natural light
- Abrasive cleaners marketed for 'tough stains' actually scratch the polish
Our restoration process is specifically designed for Las Vegas conditions, using products and techniques that address these local factors.

Our Process
Inspection and Test Spot
We check your granite type, sealer condition, and damage extent. A test spot shows you results before we proceed.
Deep Cleaning
We remove residue, oils, and buildup that has accumulated over time using stone-safe cleaners.
Polishing
Diamond polishing restores granite's natural shine and depth. We work through progressive grits for an even finish.
Stain Treatment
If stains have penetrated the stone, we apply poultice treatments to draw them out before final polishing.
Sealing
Premium impregnating sealer protects from within, blocking moisture and stains while allowing stone to breathe.
