Marble is made from compressed minerals and capable of taking a high polish. It comes in many colors depending upon the minerals it is composed of. Marble today is used for floors and countertops and is usually laid in tiles that come in many sizes. It is beautiful when installed properly. Marble should be professionally cleaned and polished at least once a year. Routine cleaning at home if not done correctly can ultimately leave grime build up and some household cleaners can even etch and dull the beauty of your shiny marble surface. Consulting your Marble professional for cleaning tips will help prolong the life of your Marble.
Marble polishing is done using many procedures and products. This procedure gives the marble its lustrous shine, Professional equipment such as a buffing or polishing machine will need to be used for marble polishing, along with the correct solution. Prior to the polishing, a thorough cleaning will need to be done to take any sealant; wax and dirt build up off the surface. Polishing Marble is a time consuming procedure and the method used is best done by an experienced Marble professional.

Resurfacing your Marble surface may need to be done if the floor is scratched from heavy traffic, or has become deeply soiled. This process needs to be done by professionals that have the experience not to damage the marble, but also remove the scratches and build up by removing a thin layer of the marble. Again this is a procedure done by using a special buffer with diamond pads that need to be operated in a specific manner. Honing is also another method to remove scratches and smooth your marble application.
 
When marble tile is installed, the base upon which the tile is placed may not be completely level, which can cause what is called Lippage. This is where the marble may be higher at on point, and will then need to be leveled usually by the use of a honing machine or grinder.After the marble surface is installed, cleaned and polished it is best to apply a sealant to the marble and any tinted grout lines that have been matched by the marble installer to make a seamless look to your marble. To keep your marble application as fresh as it was when it was installed, continue to consult your Marble professional for all your cleaning, resurfacing, and sealing needs.
