Oxalic Acid 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.
- Polish condition check before coating

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
Weight and load matter on upper floors and terraces. Where a slab has been laid over a void or a lightweight screed, we reduce machine weight and speed rather than risk cracking the base.
Team composition is consistent: a supervisor plus two machine operators on standard jobs, with additional hands for staircases, multiple floors or tight access. The same supervisor stays with the job start to finish.
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.

Oxalic Acid Marble Polishing - common questions
Will nano coating make my marble stain-proof?
No, and nobody should promise that. It slows absorption so you have time to wipe a spill. Leaving lemon juice or oil on the surface for hours can still mark the stone.
Does it change the appearance?
No. It is transparent and leaves the original colour and veining untouched, unlike a lacquer or film coating.
Can it be applied without polishing first?
It can, but it is a waste of money. Coating over scratches and dull patches locks them in, so we polish first or decline the job.
How long does it last?
Typically 12-24 months depending on traffic and cleaning products. Two applications a year in commercial spaces is normal.
Does it stop the floor from being slippery?
It does not increase slip resistance. For bathrooms and staircases we recommend an anti-skid treatment alongside or instead.
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.
