Silicate Marble Polishing in Chandigarh
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 Chandigarh 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.

How our charges are built
| Charge component | What it covers | How it varies |
|---|---|---|
| Rate per sq ft | Cleaning, grinding, polishing, finishing | Surface type and area |
| Damage correction | Scratch, etch and stain treatment | Severity, decided on the test patch |
| Access and edges | Staircases, corners, upper floors | Hand work needed |
| Coatings | Silicate, crystallisation, nano, sealer | Optional, quoted separately |
- Nothing is added mid-job. If we find something the inspection could not show, we stop and re-quote with you
- Material is included in the rate, not billed as an extra
- Slab rates apply above 1,000 sq ft instead of per-room pricing
- One written figure per surface, so a mixed floor is priced line by line
Protection is planned, not improvised. Furniture is moved to one side and covered, curtain hems are lifted, and a walking route is kept clear throughout so the household can still move around.
Payment terms are stated upfront: advances apply only where material has to be bought for a large job, and the balance is settled after the walkthrough so you are never paying for work you have not seen.
Old polish, wax and cleaning residue are stripped before any new finish goes on. Layering a fresh treatment over residue is what makes floors look grey again within weeks.

Silicate Marble Polishing - common questions
Can every marble floor reach mirror gloss?
Not every one. Hard, dense marbles like Statuario and Makrana take a very high gloss. Softer or heavily damaged stone may top out at a satin finish, and we tell you that before you pay for a mirror attempt.
Does a mirror finish show scratches more?
Yes, gloss reveals rather than hides surface damage. That is why correction comes before the final passes.
How long does mirror gloss last?
Eighteen to twenty-four months in homes and eight to twelve months in lobbies, longer with a silicate or nano coating.
Is a mirror finish slippery?
A mirror surface is smooth when wet. For bathrooms, kitchens and staircases we recommend a satin finish with anti-skid treatment instead.
Are there extra charges on top of the quoted rate?
No, provided the scope does not change. The rate covers preparation, products, machines and clean-up. Coatings and slab repairs are the only optional items, and they are listed separately in the written quote.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is covered within the quoted rate for addresses in our service cities. For outlying areas we tell you the travel component upfront rather than adding it at handover.
What if the work needs more time than estimated?
That is our risk, not yours. The rate is per sq ft for the agreed scope, so a slow patch or a stubborn stain does not increase your bill.
