Silicate Marble Polishing in Dehradun
If your polished floor looks bright but shallow, silicate is usually the missing step. It is applied after diamond polishing and bonds with the stone surface, deepening the gloss and slowing down how fast it dulls. Work in Dehradun 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.
- Free inspection with a residue test on a hidden patch

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
Timing is agreed before the crew arrives: arrival window, the room sequence and the handover time are confirmed in writing, so nobody is waiting around or guessing when the floor will be free.
Quality is checked twice: once mid-job, when the first section is finished and you can see the achievable gloss, and once at handover when the whole surface should read evenly under daylight and under your own lighting.
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.

Silicate Marble Polishing - common questions
Is deep cleaning enough without polishing?
It restores cleanliness but not sheen. If the surface has micro-scratches and worn gloss, cleaning alone will still look grey, and polishing is needed.
Which cleaner should we use afterwards?
A pH-neutral stone cleaner with clean water. Acidic and abrasive products damage polished stone surfaces within a few uses.
How often should stone floors be deep cleaned?
Every six to twelve months for homes and every three to six months in commercial spaces, depending on footfall and cleaning method.
Why does my floor look dull right after mopping?
Because you are looking at cleaning residue and soap film, not the stone. Mopping with the wrong product keeps adding a layer. Stripping it and polishing the surface is what brings the colour back.
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.
