Panda 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.

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.
Machines are matched to the job. A 400 mm single-disc machine for open floors, edge machines for skirtings and staircases, and hand blocks for corners and thresholds where a machine cannot safely reach.
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.
Dust and water control is planned before we start: masking on skirting and fittings, wet working instead of dry, and slurry vacuumed as the machine moves rather than left to dry in corners.

Panda Marble Polishing - common questions
How much does marble floor polishing cost in Delhi NCR?
Guide bands run Rs 5-15 per sq ft for a maintenance buff, Rs 15-25 for diamond polishing and Rs 25-35 for deep diamond work with crystallisation. Stone type, scratch depth, area and access decide your final number, which we confirm in writing after the free inspection.
How long does the job take?
A two-person crew finishes about 800-1,000 sq ft in a working day. Grinding plus polishing on the same area adds roughly half a day. The floor is walkable the same evening.
Will polishing thin my marble?
Polishing removes microns, not millimetres. We test a patch first and step through grits gradually, so only the worn surface layer is corrected and the slab keeps its thickness.
Do you use acid on marble?
Never. Marble is calcium-based, so acid etches it. We clean with pH-neutral products and treat oil, rust and paint stains with poultice instead.
Can we stay in the house during the work?
Yes. Polishing is done wet so dust stays low, furniture edges are masked and we leave dry walking paths overnight.
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.
