Diamond Marble Polishing in Jor Bagh
Cream polish and wax hide dullness for a few weeks. Diamond polishing removes the dull layer itself, working from coarse grit to a mirror pass, so the finish survives normal mopping and footfall. Work in Jor Bagh is planned as a scheduled visit: the crew and machines travel together on a fixed date, and the rate is written down after the floor is seen in person or from clear photos.

What each surface needs
| Marble | Character | What to watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Statuario | White with bold grey veining | Etches fast, needs prompt spill control |
| Carrara | Soft white, subtle grey | Softer stone, dulls quickly in entries |
| Calacatta | Warm white with gold veins | Needs gentle pads to avoid vein bleeding |
| Perlatino and Botticino | Warm beige with fine veins | Yellowing if filled slabs are over-polished |
Every surface is tested on a hidden patch before work starts, so you see the result before committing to the whole floor.
How the job runs
- Identify the marble type and check for resin filling (free)
- Masking with acid-proof covering
- Diamond passes at controlled speed, 30-45 minutes per 100 sq ft
- Polish to the agreed gloss, then seal or coat if required
- Before and after comparison plus a list of products never to use

Looking after the finish
| Timeframe | What to do |
|---|---|
| First 24 hours | Stay off coated areas, keep furniture off the floor |
| First week | Dry mop only, no wet mopping, no chemical cleaners |
| Ongoing | pH-neutral cleaner, damp mop, dry after |
| Every 12-18 months | Light maintenance polish to hold the gloss |
- Never use acid, bleach, vinegar or abrasive powder on stone
- Wipe spills promptly, particularly lemon, tea and oil
- Use felt pads on furniture and mats at entry points
- Keep planters and metal legs off wet floors to prevent rust rings
Dust and water control is planned before we start: masking on skirting and fittings, wet working instead of dry, and slurry vacuumed as the machine moves rather than left to dry in corners.
After-care guidance is handed over in writing: which cleaner to use, how to mop, and what to avoid during the first week. Most repeat problems trace back to cleaning products rather than the work itself.
Quality is checked twice: once mid-job, when the first section is finished and you can see the achievable gloss, and once at handover when the whole surface should read evenly under daylight and under your own lighting.

Diamond Marble Polishing - common questions
Will polishing change the pattern?
No. Diamond polishing removes the damaged top layer; it does not bleach or alter the veining. On filled slabs we work at lower speed specifically to avoid yellowing.
Can yellowed Italian marble be corrected?
Polish residue and hard-water film lift during diamond polishing. Yellowing inside a filled slab is internal and cannot be polished out, so we test a patch and tell you the realistic outcome first.
How often does it need polishing?
Homes every 18-24 months with neutral cleaning. Lobbies, showrooms and entries every 8-12 months, longer with a sealer or nano coating.
Is a sealer worth it?
Yes in working areas. It slows absorption of oil, tea and coloured liquids, which buys time to wipe a spill, and needs refreshing every 12-24 months.
Why does Italian marble dull faster than Indian marble?
It is usually the cleaning, not the stone. White imported marbles are calcium-based, so acidic cleaners and lemon juice etch the surface and leave white patches within days. A pH-neutral cleaner and clean-water mopping solves most of it.
What should I avoid in the first week?
Wet mopping, chemical floor cleaners, dragging furniture and placing potted plants back on the floor. Dry mopping and clean water only until the finish settles.
Which cleaner do you recommend?
Any pH-neutral stone cleaner, used with clean water and followed by drying. That single habit prevents most of the dullness and staining we are called back to fix.
What voids the finish durability?
Acid and abrasive cleaning. A floor polished this month can look dull in eight weeks if it is mopped with an acidic general-purpose cleaner.
