Marble Floor Polishing in Pijuri
Marble does not fade evenly. Doorways, kitchen entries and stair landings wear first, which is why floors start looking patchy. We polish the whole surface back to one uniform gloss so no room looks newer than the rest. Kolkata buildings are older and often mix marble, Kota and mosaic in the same flat, with high humidity and monsoon damp that dulls floors faster than in Delhi. Salt-laden air near the river also leaves a film that looks like stone wear but is surface deposit.

Serving Pijuri
Marble Floor Polishing in Pijuri is handled on scheduled routes by our Kolkata team, so travel is planned rather than added as a surprise.
- Site inspection booked within 24-48 hours for Pijuri addresses
- Society gate, lift and parking permissions coordinated before the crew arrives

- Slurry and waste removed the same day, never dumped in the society bins
- Before-and-after photographs of your own Pijuri job handed over for your records
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.
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.
Access is confirmed before the visit: parking, lift use, gate entry, working-hour restrictions and any society paperwork. Sorting this in advance is what stops a scheduled job from becoming a wasted trip.
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.

Kolkata jobs are scheduled as a fixed visit batch so the crew and machines travel together and travel cost is not loaded onto your rate. Kolkata buildings are older and often mix marble, Kota and mosaic in the same flat, with high humidity and monsoon damp that dulls floors faster than in Delhi. Salt-laden air near the river also leaves a film that looks like stone wear but is surface deposit. Inspections are booked within 24-48 hours and most jobs take 1-2 days per flat.

Marble Floor Polishing - common questions
How often should marble be deep cleaned?
Every six to twelve months in homes, and every three to six months in commercial spaces. Daily mopping with the wrong product makes build-up worse, not better.
Which cleaner should we use daily?
A pH-neutral stone cleaner with clean water, and dry the surface afterwards. Acid and abrasive cleaners damage polished marble within a few uses.
Can cleaning remove white patches near taps?
Hard-water scale yes, with a descaling clean. Etch marks caused by acid need light grinding and polishing, which is a different job.
Do I need cleaning or polishing?
Test one patch with a clean damp cloth. If it wipes clean but still looks grey, the surface is worn and needs polishing. If the cloth comes away dirty or the floor is streaky, it needs deep cleaning.
Do you cover Pijuri?
Yes. Pijuri is on our regular route with the Kolkata 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 Pijuri?
Inspection first, then scheduling. Most Pijuri 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.
