Natural Stone Repair in Delhi NCR
Cleaning and polishing are two different jobs. A floor can be clean and still look grey because the sheen is gone, and it can be shiny and still be dirty if residue has been sealed in. We do both, in the right order. 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.

What each surface needs
| Treatment | Character | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Sil200 | Fast build, strong initial gloss | Homes and moderate traffic |
| Sil800 | Deeper wet look, holds gloss longer | Lobbies, showrooms, hotels |
| Over new stone | Protects an unworn surface | Recently laid or newly polished floors |
| Over worn stone | Short-lived unless polished first | Only after a full diamond sequence |
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
- Assessment to confirm silicate suits the stone and the room
- Diamond polishing to 800-1500 grit so there is a finish worth locking in
- Silicate applied in sections and buffed while it reacts
- Second pass on heavy areas for even gloss
- Gloss check and a list of cleaners to avoid
Natural Stone Repair rates in Delhi NCR
| Work | Guide band | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Polish plus Sil200 | Rs 15-25 per sq ft | Homes, standard traffic |
| Polish plus Sil800 | Rs 25-35 per sq ft | Lobbies, hotels, heavy traffic |
| Silicate over an already polished floor | Quoted after inspection | Floor must still be sound |
| Repeat maintenance treatment | Quoted after inspection | Every 1-3 years |
Rates depend on surface type, damage depth, area and access. The figure is written down before work begins.
Keeping the finish after the job is done
| Habit | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Dry dust mopping | Removes grit before it scratches the surface |
| pH-neutral cleaner only | Acid etches marble and bleach dulls the finish |
| Damp mop, never flooding | Standing water leaves marks and weakens joints |
| Mats at entries | Captures grit where it enters |
| Felt pads under furniture | Stops drag marks on polished surfaces |
- A light maintenance polish every 12-18 months keeps gloss without a full job
- Commercial floors are usually re-polished annually, homes every two years
- Sealer or nano coating, where applied, is refreshed on the schedule we hand over
Waste is removed the same day. Slurry, stripped residue, used pads and packaging leave with the crew instead of going into society bins or being left for you to dispose of.
Nothing is hidden behind a shine. Where a surface has damage that polishing cannot correct, we mark it during inspection and put it in writing, so expectations are set before work starts rather than argued over afterwards.
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.

Natural Stone Repair - common questions
Is silicate the same as waxing the floor?
No. Wax sits on the surface and wipes off. Silicate reacts with the calcium in the marble and hardens the surface layer, so the gloss is part of the stone and survives mopping.
How long does it last?
Roughly two to three years in homes and one to two years in heavy-footfall lobbies. Using a pH-neutral cleaner instead of acid is the biggest factor.
Can it be applied to a floor that was never polished?
It can, but it is rarely worth it, because silicate amplifies whatever surface it meets and locks in scratches. We polish to 800-1500 grit first or refuse the treatment.
Will it make the floor slippery?
A high-gloss finish is smoother when wet. In bathrooms, kitchens and on staircases we recommend a satin or crystallised finish instead of mirror gloss.
How long before we can walk on it?
The floor is walkable the same evening. Only normal drying after the polishing stage is needed, with no curing days.
How often does the floor need a maintenance polish?
Every 12-18 months for homes and every 8-12 months for commercial floors. It is a much smaller job than the original restoration.
Which cleaner should we use?
A pH-neutral stone cleaner with clean water, dried after mopping. Avoid acid, bleach and abrasive powders, which are the main causes of dull and etched floors.
Can maintenance work be done room by room?
Yes. We schedule it in sections so the house stays usable, and it takes a fraction of the time of a full polish.
