A Bronte kitchen tends to be the centre of family life, with breakfast before the beach and friends spilling in after a swim at the bogey hole. Marble looks the part in those homes, but it is beautiful and fragile, and a child’s orange juice or a Sunday spritz can leave an etch that no amount of polishing lifts. DURAFLEX is the invisible film that keeps the bench pristine through it all.

What are we protecting?
Sealing vs protection film: what each one does
A sealer slows how fast liquids absorb into the stone and needs reapplying over time, but it offers no defence against acid etching. DURAFLEX is a physical barrier bonded to the surface: it stops both staining and etching, needs zero maintenance, and is backed by an up-to-10-year warranty. The two work together, the seal prepares the stone and the film protects it.

I would highly recommend Duraflex. It's a premium product and worth the investment. Chris and Matt were incredibly helpful with assigning me getting a few stains out of a new marble bench top. Amazing customer service and very happy!

DURAFLEX is a self-healing polyurethane protection film applied over marble and natural stone by specialists trained in automotive paint protection. Heat-sealed at every edge and backed by an up-to-10-year warranty against bubbling, lifting and yellowing, it stops both etching and staining where a penetrating sealer cannot.

Why Bronte families choose DURAFLEX
Bronte’s valley of houses runs down toward the beach, and many are family homes that have been opened up around a generous kitchen for weekend gatherings. Honed marble and marble-look stone are favourites for that calm, coastal feel, but a household of kids and weekend hosting is exactly the environment that etches and stains a soft surface fastest. A barrier film lets the bench stay part of the chaos without slowly losing its finish.
Don’t worry, it’s DURAFLEX, the film that takes the spills so a Bronte family kitchen never has to be precious about them. Installation is a single visit of a few hours with no curing and no downtime, so the bench is ready for the next round of toast and post-beach snacks the same day. We protect Bronte and the neighbouring eastern beaches across New South Wales.
Automotive-trained installers, not stone tradespeople
Film application is a precision job that rewards a steady hand and patience with edges. That background exists in automotive paint protection film installation, not stone restoration. Every DURAFLEX installer comes from the automotive film industry, and the technique transfers directly to stone: tension management, edge trimming and heat sealing.
Heat sealing and the up-to-10-year warranty
After the film is applied it is heat sealed to the surface. This activates the adhesive, closes the edges and removes the micro-lifting points that cause bubbling over time. The up-to-10-year warranty covers bubbling, lifting and yellowing, and every Bronte job is completed to the same standard.
Serving Bronte and surrounding suburbs
DURAFLEX services Bronte and the wider Sydney area. Installation is completed in a single visit with no curing period and no downtime, so the kitchen is back in normal use the same day, and every Bronte estimate is no-obligation.
Bronte marble protection: common questions
Can a busy family kitchen really avoid etch marks?
Yes. Juice, sauces, wine and citrus all contact the film instead of the marble, so the polish never etches. Light surface scuffs from daily use self-heal with warmth over time.
Is the film safe around children and food prep?
It is. DURAFLEX is independently CSIRO fire-tested and food-safe to wipe down and use as a normal benchtop. There is nothing to worry about with kids in the kitchen.
Will the honed look of my marble be preserved?
Yes. The film follows the existing finish, so honed marble stays matte and natural to the touch. It is invisible once applied.
How much disruption is the install for a family home?
Very little. It is one visit of a few hours, with no curing time, so the kitchen is back in normal use the same day with no ongoing maintenance.
Do you service the surrounding beach suburbs?
We do, across Bronte and the nearby eastern beaches in New South Wales. Build your estimate online or call 1300 656 656 to arrange a time.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Will I be able to see or feel it?
No. It’s optically clear and ultra-thin, so the stone looks exactly the same. Customers love the satin feel of our ULTRA Satin-X film (if that’s what you’re into).
Does it actually stop stains and etching?
DURAFLEX is completely non porous, meaning spills don’t stand a chance. Wine, coffee, oil and citrus wipe away completely, protecting the stone from etching and staining.
How long does installation take?
Most kitchens are completed in a single day, approximately 2 hours per surface.
