How to maintain marble flooring in Indian homes?

Quick Answer

Marble flooring in India requires regular care: daily mopping with pH-neutral cleaner, annual sealing with marble sealant, and professional polishing every 2–3 years. Acidic cleaners (vinegar, lemon-based products) permanently etch marble.

Never use: Phenyl, Dettol, vinegar, lemon juice, bleach, or acidic bathroom cleaners on marble. These create permanent white etching (acid stains) that cannot be removed without re-polishing.
