Polishing Old Marble Flooring From Previous Owner, Please Advise

Featured Replies

Hi,

my resale home has marble flooring. Please advise me on good contractors for polishing and what should i look out for. Thanks!

My friend had want to polish the marble in his living room too some years back but bedroom floors was timber strips. His contractor (whom is his cousin) discourage it as polishing uses a lot of water and will seep into the bedroom floor and damage the timber strips.

the bedrooms does have parquet strips but i intend to remove them and tile the flooring in the bedrooms

It will depend on how much marble is left (i.e. if the previous owner has polished down before). There may not be enough to polish. Also have to consider the condition (deep scratches will still remain).

You can use something called HCL89 to polish your marble by yourself

I usually get it from http://hcl89.byethost10.com or http://hcl89.atwebpages.com

What it does is that it polishes your marble and renews the marble and also helps

to create a protection for it so that always remains new.

Hope this helps you out :)

Parquet is always the nicest, but the most difficult to maintain

I think what he seems that when you keep on polishing, the polishable area on the tile gets thinner and thinner

When you say polishable area of the tile you are talking about the the enamel of tile right?

They also have those tiles that have the same design such as parquet, that actually might be easier to maintain but then again its no parquet though
