Wooden Floor Polishing in Delhi NCR
A wooden floor does not fade from use alone; it dries out in summer and swells in the monsoon, and the finish wears in the walking lanes first. Sanding back to bare wood, filling the gaps and rebuilding the surface is what brings it back. 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.

Tiles or marble: what each one needs
| Tiles (vitrified, ceramic) | Marble | |
|---|---|---|
| What dulls | Surface residue and micro-scratches | Worn polished layer, etching |
| Restoring it | Deep clean, surface refine | Grinding and diamond polishing |
| Staining | Grout lines first | Stone surface and joints |
| Slip risk | High on glossy tile when wet | High on mirror-polished stone |
| Best finish for wet areas | Clean plus anti-skid | Satin plus anti-skid |
In most homes both are present in the same flat, which is why we quote surface by surface instead of giving one blended rate.
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.

Wooden Floor Sanding And Polishing - common questions
Will a repaired crack be invisible?
With a colour-matched fill and re-polishing it blends into the veining and is hard to find from standing height. Under close direct light a faint line can remain, which is normal and still far better than an open crack collecting dirt.
Do treated stains come back?
Only if the cause is still there. A rust ring returns if the same wet metal leg sits on the floor again, so we recommend fixing the cause and sealing the area.
How long does restoration take?
A typical 1,000 sq ft apartment takes one to two days including poultice time, and the floor behaves like a normally polished floor afterwards.
Is restoration cheaper than replacing the floor?
Almost always. It costs a fraction of removal and re-laying, avoids matching problems with imported stone, and keeps the house usable. Replacement only makes sense for hollow, cracked-through or fully stained slabs.
Can etched marble really be repaired?
Yes if the etching is on the surface. Etch marks are shallow chemical burns of the polished layer, so light grinding and a matched polish remove them. Deep etching may leave a faint mark, which we show you on a test patch first.
Can tiles be polished like marble?
Tiles are refined and cleaned, not ground like stone. Polishing a vitrified tile past its factory finish wears the surface, so we clean and seal instead, or polish only where the tile type allows it.
Which is better for a bathroom floor?
Neither should be mirror-glossy when wet. Tile with anti-skid treatment, or honed stone with anti-skid, is the safer and more practical choice.
Do floors with both need separate visits?
No. One crew handles tiles, grout and stone in the same visit, which also avoids the joint line between two trades becoming anyone's excuse.
