Silicate Marble Polishing in Baran
Silicate treatment is what gives marble a wet, deep gloss instead of a thin surface shine. The chemical reacts with the calcium in the stone and hardens the top layer, so the finish holds through mopping and footfall far longer than plain polishing. Work in Baran is planned as a scheduled visit: the crew and machines travel together on a fixed date, and the rate is written down after the floor is seen in person or from clear photos.
- Damage mapping and crack depth check

Every surface is tested on a hidden patch before work starts, so you see the result before committing to the whole floor.

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.

Silicate Marble Polishing - common questions
How long does an epoxy repair last?
Years under normal traffic, provided the surrounding slab is sound. If a slab is hollow or still moving, the underlying problem must be fixed first and we check that during inspection.
Is epoxy polishing the same as diamond polishing?
No. Diamond polishing refines the stone with abrasives. Epoxy polishing adds a brightening and protective treatment and works best on top of a properly polished floor.
Do we have to leave the room while it cures?
Only the work area needs to stay clear. Small fills cure in a few hours; larger repairs are left overnight before shaping and polishing.
Will the repaired crack show?
With a matched tint and a flush polish it blends into the veining and is hard to find from standing height. A faint line can remain under close direct light, which is normal.
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.
