Granite Countertop Re in Delhi NCR
A dull patch in front of the sink makes an entire kitchen look tired. We clean, refine and re-polish the working area and blend it into the rest of the slab. Delhi NCR mixes very old housing stock with new high-rise towers, so a single visit can mean Kota stone in one room and Italian marble in the next. We carry pads for both and quote each surface on its own merit.

How to judge a good job instead of a good sales pitch
| Check | What good looks like | Warning sign |
|---|---|---|
| Test patch | Shown on a hidden area first | Skipped or refused |
| Evenness | Same gloss across the room | Bright at the door, dull corners |
| Joints | Clean and level | Dust trapped in open joints |

Buff or full polish? A straight answer
| Condition of the floor | Correct job | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Dull but even, no scratches | Buff only | Surface is sound, only the sheen is lost |
| Light scratches and lane wear | Diamond polish | Surface layer needs refining |
| Visible lippage or deep scratches | Grinding plus polish | Buffing cannot level stone |
| Wax or polish residue build-up | Strip, then polish | New finish will not bond over residue |
Buffing is the cheaper option and we will tell you when it is enough. Selling a full polish for a floor that only needed a buff is how a contractor gets a bad name.
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.
Water and power are the two site requirements. We need one working socket within reach of a lead and a water point; everything else, including masking material and waste bags, comes with the crew.
Payment terms are stated upfront: advances apply only where material has to be bought for a large job, and the balance is settled after the walkthrough so you are never paying for work you have not seen.

Granite Countertop Re Polishing - common questions
Why is acid so damaging to travertine?
Travertine and limestone are calcium-based. Acid dissolves the surface binder, which leaves white etch marks and opens the texture, and the damage is permanent unless the surface is honed back.
Will cleaning remove dirt from the pits?
Yes, with the right brushes and neutral cleaner, but the pits will refill over time. Filling open pits at the same visit is the practical fix.
Can travertine be polished to a shine?
It can be honed or lightly polished, but a mirror finish on soft, pitted stone is neither natural nor durable. We usually recommend a honed finish with sealer.
How often should it be sealed?
Every twelve to twenty-four months for floors, and more often in wet areas. Sealer slows absorption rather than blocking it.
What makes one job better than another?
The pad sequence and the honesty of the scope. Anyone can brighten a floor with wax and it fades in weeks. A proper sequence costs more time and holds for years.
Do you share before and after photos?
Yes. We photograph the test patch and the finished floor so you can compare, and keep them for warranty reference.
How do I know if buffing is enough?
If the floor is evenly dull with no visible scratch pattern, a buff usually restores it. If you can see lanes, scratches or a step between slabs, it needs polishing or grinding, and we show you why on a test patch.
Is buffing a waste of money then?
Not at all. It is the correct maintenance step for a sound floor and costs a fraction of a full job. It becomes a waste only when the surface damage needs something deeper.
Can you do a test patch first?
Yes, on every job. One tile or a corner, so you judge the actual result before committing to the whole floor.
