Silicate Marble Polishing in Guna
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 Guna 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 of porosity and stain history
- Deep cleaning before sealing (sealer over dirt seals dirt)
- Drying time allowed, no sealing on damp stone
- Impregnating sealer applied evenly

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
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.
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.
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.

Silicate Marble Polishing - common questions
Will sealing make my marble stain-proof?
No, and any contractor saying that is overselling. Sealing buys you time to wipe a spill. Lemon juice or oil left overnight can still mark sealed stone.
How often should stone be re-sealed?
Every twelve to twenty-four months for working areas like kitchens, entries and washbasins. Dry bedroom floors and walls hold sealer much longer.
Can sealer be applied over an old polish?
No. It will not bond, and it traps the old residue underneath. Cleaning or stripping first is part of the job, not an optional extra.
Does sealing change the colour?
Impregnating sealers are colourless. If a sealer darkens the stone, it is a film-forming product rather than an impregnator, which is a different finish choice.
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.
