Onyx Marble Polishing 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.
- Free inspection with a residue test on a hidden patch

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
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.

Onyx Marble Polishing - common questions
Why does my floor look dull right after mopping?
Because you are looking at cleaning residue and soap film, not the stone. Mopping with the wrong product keeps adding a layer. Stripping it and polishing the surface is what brings the colour back.
Is deep cleaning enough without polishing?
It restores cleanliness but not sheen. If the surface has micro-scratches and worn gloss, cleaning alone will still look grey, and polishing is needed.
Which cleaner should we use afterwards?
A pH-neutral stone cleaner with clean water. Acidic and abrasive products damage polished stone surfaces within a few uses.
How often should stone floors be deep cleaned?
Every six to twelve months for homes and every three to six months in commercial spaces, depending on footfall and cleaning method.
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.
