Marble Polishing in Central Singapore
Marble loses its shine slowly: grit scratches it, acidic spills etch it and the wrong cleaners leave it cloudy. Marble polishing takes off a very thin worn layer with diamond pads, then brings the stone back to a clear, even shine. We do it on floors, bathroom vanity tops, walls and stairs across central Singapore.

Marble Polishing: what you should know
How marble polishing works
Marble is mostly calcite, a soft stone that scratches and reacts with acid. We use a heavy floor machine with resin diamond pads, working from a coarse grit down to very fine grits with water. Each step removes the scratches left by the one before. The final step uses a marble polishing powder or fine diamond that brings out a natural shine from the stone itself, not a coating that sits on top.
Polishing vs a coating
Some companies only apply a wax or acrylic coating. It looks shiny for a few weeks, then wears in walkways and traps dirt. We polish the stone itself, so the shine lasts and can be topped up with a simple buff.
Which marble we polish
Emperador, Crema Marfil, Carrara, Volakas, Botticino, Bianco and grey marbles, crazy-paving marble chips in older homes, and marble tiles of all sizes. Not sure if your floor is marble? Send a photo and we will tell you.

Frequently asked questions
How much does marble polishing cost in Singapore?
Our marble polishing starts from $1 per sq ft with a minimum of $350. A 1,000 sq ft condo unit starts from $1,000. Heavy grinding, deep stains and repairs are quoted from photos.
Is marble polishing messy?
It's a wet process, so there's no dust, but there is slurry. We cover walls, cabinets and doorways with plastic sheeting and tape, and clean up before we leave.
Can I stay at home during polishing?
Yes. We work room by room, so you can use the rest of the home. You can walk on a polished floor once it is dry, usually within an hour or two.
How long does the shine last?
With daily sweeping and a neutral cleaner, the shine usually lasts several years. High-traffic areas may need a light buff every 1 to 2 years.
Do you polish marble in HDB flats?
Yes. Older HDB flats often have marble or crazy-paving marble chip floors, and they polish up very well.
