Sandstone Floor Tiles Polishing Sandstone and Slate Floor Cleaning in Delhi NCR
Sandstone and slate are porous, layered stones with an uneven surface that traps dust in exactly the places a mop cannot reach. Hosing them down pushes water into the layers and makes it worse. 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.

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.

Sandstone Floor Tiles Polishing - common questions
Should sandstone be polished?
Usually not. Sandstone reads best with its natural matte finish, and polishing it only makes the surface unevenly reflective. Where a smoother finish is wanted, honing is the right process.
What are the white patches on my sandstone or slate?
Efflorescence, mineral salts pushed to the surface by moisture. It is removed with a pH-neutral treatment, and the underlying damp should be addressed or it returns.
Can slate be sealed outdoors?
Yes, with an impregnating sealer, and it will need re-sealing every twelve to twenty-four months depending on rain and foot traffic.
Is pressure washing safe?
On soft sandstone it is not, because it erodes the surface and drives water into the layers. Controlled low-pressure cleaning with the right brushes is safer.
How far in advance should I book?
A week is comfortable. During festival and wedding season, two weeks is safer because crews are booked out for hotel and banquet work.
What access do you need?
A water point, a working power socket, and a clear route for the machines. Society permission for lift use is helpful for upper floors.
Can the job be split across weekends?
Yes. Many clients do one or two rooms each weekend. We keep the same rate per sq ft and you are not billed twice for travel within the same batch.
