Diamond Marble Polishing Diamond Polishing on Marble in South Delhi
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. Delhi floors take a beating from dust, metro-era construction grit and hard water. Makrana, Katni and Kota dominate older colonies, while newer builder floors use imported marble.

What each surface needs
| Grit | What it does | When it is needed |
|---|---|---|
| 60 and 100 | Cuts back lippage, deep scratches and rough patches | Uneven joints, heavy damage |
| 200 and 400 | Removes grinding marks, levels the surface | After any coarse stage |
| 800 | Closes the pores and prepares the stone | Almost every job |
| 1500 and 3000 | Working gloss and final mirror pass | Homes, lobbies, showrooms |
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
- Inspection and test patch (free, 20 minutes)
- Masking of all surfaces that should not get slurry
- Sequential diamond passes, 30-45 minutes per 100 sq ft
- Finishing pass at 1500 or 3000 grit, coating if you approve
- Handover with before and after gloss comparison

Marble and granite need different treatment
| Marble | Granite | |
|---|---|---|
| Hardness | Softer, scratches more visibly | Harder, resists scratches |
| Acid | Etches immediately, never use | Dulls the surface, avoid |
| Finishing | Diamond pads up to 3000 grit | Its own pad set and compounds |
| Typical aftercare | Sealer every 12-24 months | Sealer on kitchen and stairs |
| Gloss achievable | Very high on hard whites | Deep lustre, not mirror |
We keep separate pad sets and compounds for each, because using marble products on granite (or the reverse) is the fastest way to end up with a hazy surface.
Where a floor has mixed surfaces, each one gets its own pad sequence and compound. Treating Kota stone and imported marble with the same approach is how floors get patchy.
The written rate is the final amount for the agreed scope. If we open the floor and find something the inspection could not show, we stop and re-quote with you before continuing, not after.
Why clients book us
- Fresh diamond segments, because worn pads leave swirl marks
- Correct pad set per stone: marble, granite, Kota, terrazzo
- One contractor for grinding, polishing and coatings

Diamond Marble Polishing - common questions
How much marble does it remove?
Microns, not visible layers. Even a full sequence on a damaged floor only corrects the worn top surface; coarse grinding is the stage that removes more and we only use it when needed.
How glossy will the floor look?
Most marble reaches a near-mirror gloss. Statuario and Makrana take a very high gloss, while honed travertine and some Kota floors look better satin. We agree the target before starting.
How long does the finish last?
Two to three years in homes before a light maintenance pass; eight to twelve months in offices and hotels, longer with a silicate or nano coating.
Can it be done in an occupied home?
Yes. The process is wet, so dust stays low. We work room by room and leave dry paths so you can stay in the house.
How is diamond polishing different from the polish my housekeeping does?
Housekeeping applies cream or wax that sits on the surface and wears off in walking lanes within weeks. Diamond polishing refines the stone itself, so the finish is part of the floor.
Do you cover South Delhi?
Yes. South Delhi is on our regular route with the Delhi team, and inspections there are usually booked within 24-48 hours. For larger areas we schedule a fixed route day so travel cost is shared.
How soon can work start in South Delhi?
Inspection first, then scheduling. Most South Delhi jobs begin within a week of approval, and single-room works are often earlier if you are flexible on the date.
Can you polish a floor that mixes marble and granite?
Yes, and it is common in lobbies and staircases. Each surface is polished to a matching level of sheen rather than the same pad sequence, so the two read as one floor.
Is granite easier to maintain than marble?
It is less acid-sensitive and harder, so it stains and scratches less. It still dulls from repeated wrong cleaning, and it still needs sealing in wet or greasy areas.
Why does marble etch while granite does not?
Marble is calcium-based, so acid dissolves the surface and leaves a white mark. Granite is silicate-based and resists acid better, though strong acid still dulls its polish.
