Case Study: Restoring the Beauty of Acid-Stained Nero Marquina Marble Bathroom in Arena Tower, Canary Wharf
Introduction
At MarbleMaster™, we take great pride in our ability to restore and repair all types of natural and artificial stones, including marble. Recently, we were approached by a client residing in the prestigious Arena Tower, Canary Wharf, with a pressing issue – an acid-stained Nero Marquina marble bathroom. This case study outlines the steps we took to restore the beauty of the marble and provide our client with a bathroom they could be proud of.
Background
Nero Marquina marble is renowned for its deep black colour and distinctive white veining, which adds an elegant touch to any space. However, due to exposure to acidic substances, such as cleaning products, the surface of the marble had become stained and discoloured. Our client was understandably dismayed by the damage done to their bathroom, and they sought our expertise to rectify the situation.
Assessment and Planning
Upon arrival at the Galliard Homes Arena Tower, our team of experienced professionals carefully assessed the extent of the damage. We conducted a thorough inspection of the acid-stained nero marquina marble, taking note of the affected areas and determining the best course of action.
Marble Repair Execution
- Surface Preparation: Before proceeding with the restoration process, we ensured that the bathroom was adequately prepared. We took great care in protecting the surrounding areas, including fixtures and fittings, to prevent any accidental damage.
- Deep Cleaning and Stain Removal: Our next step involved deep cleaning the acid-stained Nero Marquina marble. We utilized advanced Sanding and grinding techniques and professional-grade products specifically formulated for acid-damaged marble restoration. With meticulous attention to detail, we gently removed the acid etch stains, ensuring that they did not further harm the delicate surface of the marble.
- Polishing and Sealing: Once the stains were successfully eliminated, we proceeded with polishing the Spanish Nero Marquina marble. Using our state-of-the-art equipment and expertise, we carefully restored the shine and smoothness of the marble, revealing its inherent beauty. To protect the marble from future damage, we applied a high-quality sealer, which acts as a barrier against stains and spills, ensuring the longevity of the restoration.

Upon completion of the acid-stained Nero Marquina marble bathroom restoration, our client was delighted with the results.
