Waxing Granite Countertops Floor Wax Polishing in Delhi NCR
Wax is a sacrificial layer: it takes the traffic wear instead of the stone. On the right floor that is an advantage, and on the wrong floor it traps dirt, so we tell you which one you have. 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.

The written rate is the final amount for the agreed scope. If we open the floor and find something the inspection could not show, we stop and re-quote with you before continuing, not after.
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.

Waxing Granite Countertops - common questions
Does wax damage stone?
Not if it is stripped and reapplied properly. Wax left to build up for years traps grit that then scratches the stone underneath, which is the real problem.
Is wax better than crystallisation?
They suit different floors. Crystallisation hardens marble for heavy traffic; wax gives an even sheen on mosaic, Kota and cement floors where hardening would be too aggressive.
Can wax reduce slipperiness?
A waxed surface is less mirror-smooth than a crystallised one, which helps in some areas, but for bathrooms and staircases we recommend a proper anti-skid treatment.
How long does a wax finish last?
Six to twelve weeks in high-traffic areas and three to six months in homes, depending on mopping and footfall. It is renewable, which is why some commercial floors use wax on purpose.
What makes one job better than another?
The pad sequence and the honesty of the scope. Anyone can brighten a floor with wax and it fades in weeks. A proper sequence costs more time and holds for years.
Do you share before and after photos?
Yes. We photograph the test patch and the finished floor so you can compare, and keep them for warranty reference.
Which of these can you fix in one visit?
Dullness, scratch lanes, watermark rings and slippery surfaces are usually single-visit jobs. Trapped water, loose joints and cracked or hollow slabs may need a second visit because of drying or re-pointing time.
What if the damage is worse than the photos showed?
We stop and re-quote rather than continuing on a guess. You approve the revised scope or we finish what was agreed and leave the rest.
Can repeated problems be prevented?
Most of them, yes. Entrance mats, pH-neutral cleaning, felt pads and prompt spill wipe-up remove the four causes behind the majority of callbacks.
