I have just moved into a relatively new condo and one of the bathroom vanity tops was full of stains. I had no idea what the stone was or whether it could be remedied and thought perhaps I would have to replace the top --- which was definitely NOT something I wanted to do at the time. So I checked out Angie's List and found MARBLE & GRANITE CARE PROFESSIONALS INC. I read the reviews and immediately got in touch with Rick. I sent him a couple of photos and he responded right away .... basically telling me that he could fix the problem - calming my nerves. He worked on the top and did a great job -- it looks new. He's very knowledgeable about all kinds of stone and told me what I need to do to take care of the stone not only in the bathrooms but in kitchen as well. I will definitely call him back in the future if necessary. Thank goodness for Angie's List.

Had cleaned my marble wIth glass cleaner which had dulled the service. Spots needed removal caused by a party guest that got ill and missed the toilet. Also urine splashes that also removed the finish. Rick cleaned and the polished it to make it look better than the day it was installed! Gorgeous! Rick was kind, informative, and professional. Highly recommend!

I contacted Rick Arons to request a service visit to remove substantial calcium deposit buildup on my granite counter surrounding my kitchen sink. I'd previously tried numerous times to remove such deposits myself without any success. Rick timely corresponded with me and was more than happy to direct me through a technique using a razor and a granite cleaning solution (Simple Green Stone Cleaner), which worked and completely removed the buildup. Free of charge in lieu of a service call for which I was willing to pay. Thank you Rick for your time and willingness to provide me advice over the phone - unheard of these days!

Rick was amazing. We have been in our house for two years, and I should have had him come sooner had I known how wonderful my countertops could look. Stains and watermarks were removed. He was here for most of the day because he does everything by hand. The countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms look like they were just installed. I can't believe that coffee stains even came out. Ask Rick about the counter top cleaner you should be using! We will certainly use him next year, as I look forward to having my counter tops maintained on an annual basis. Thank you.

Scheduling the job was easy. I had an Angie's list deal and I think we got a great value for our money. Rick was prompt, very professional, gave us a ton of useful information on how to maintain our countertops and respected our home while doing the work - wore booties and kept the work area clean. Will use him again.

Rick arrived on time and began to work immediately. When he came for the estimate, he was pretty certain that he could remove the stains. He was able to remove all of the stains including a particularly bad one. After the stains were removed he applied a sealer to the countertops. The work was performed in about an hour and a half, and he cleaned up when the work was complete. We will definitely have him do the yearly seal for these countertops.

Response from MARBLE & GRANITE CARE PROFESSIONALS INC
This is a shame. The customer is only available on Friday of only some weeks. While I have tried to schedule a mutually convenient time for the appointment, she cancelled our first and did not reply to my offer of a second. I have continued to leave her messages to attempt to reschedule, but will have to refund her payment on the Big Deal coupon if she is not able to respond. As my reviews indicate, I am very solicitous of my customers and work hard to accommodate them.

He told me my granite was in excellent condition. It looks very much like it did before the work was done but at least I know it had a good cleaning. There are two small chips. I realize I will have to contact someone else to smooth those out.

Marble and Granite Care Professionals cleaned and sealed our granite and marble countertops several months ago, and did an excellent job (see prior review). We recently had a cleaning crew come in (selected from Angie's List); but something they used left etched rings and a spill mark on our bathroom marble counter. The cleaning company denied responsibility; so I called Marble and Granite Care Professionals. The owner again responded very promptly, came to our house within days, and cleaned and repaired the etched area of the marble countertop so it looks like new. The owner, who did our work, is so friendly, professional, and prompt. I would highly recommend Marble and Granite Care Professionals without reservation and will certainly use them again.

He does what needs to be done with care and knowledge of his profession. I highly recommend Rick Arons.
Description of Work: He hand removed stains from marble floors (kitchen, diningroom, foyer) and then polished them with buffer. He worked diligently to remove some scratches and a stain left by a glass on a small marble Herman Miller table. The stain is gone and the scratches almost invisable. He sealed and, in places, recalked a large granite kitchen counter. I have him once a year and he has maintained all these surfaces for some 10 years.

Rick did a good job. The counters are 7 or 8 years old they get used allot. I won't say they look brand new but they do look much better than they have for years. Rick did all the work himself, made no mess, no harsh fumes and gave me detailed instructions on taking care of them myself. Next time the counters look ruff I'l call Rick!
