Professional Marble Floor Cleaning & Restoration in Bristol
Marble is one of the most beautiful — and most demanding — flooring materials in any home or business. It requires specialist knowledge, the right chemistry and the correct equipment. The wrong products or technique can cause permanent damage that no amount of cleaning will reverse.
Aura Floor Care is one of the very few operators in Bristol certified to PAS 86 — the British Standard for hard floor care. We use only pH-neutral, acid-free products manufactured in Britain from natural plant extracts, and the Klindex diamond polishing system for restoration work. Every job is assessed individually before we begin.
Whether your marble needs a routine deep clean, grout restoration, scratch removal, polishing to a mirror finish or full honing and sealing — we have the expertise to restore it properly.
Acidic household cleaners, vinegar, lemon juice and many supermarket stone products permanently etch marble surfaces. If you've been using the wrong products, stop immediately — we can assess the damage and advise on what's recoverable.
Our Marble Floor Services
Every marble floor is different. We assess yours before recommending any treatment.
pH-neutral specialist cleaning removes ingrained soiling, grease, residue and surface contamination safely. Restores the natural clarity and colour of marble without any risk of etching or surface damage.
Diamond polishing using the Klindex system restores dull marble to a high mirror finish. Progressive diamond grits refine the surface to the level of polish you want — from a soft sheen to a full reflective mirror.
Honing removes scratches and etch marks and leaves a smooth, flat, non-reflective finish. Preferred in contemporary interiors and busy commercial settings. More forgiving to maintain than a high polish.
Penetrating impregnator sealer is applied after cleaning or polishing to protect the stone against liquid absorption and staining. Does not alter the appearance. Significantly easier to maintain and extends the life of the clean.
Scratches and acid etch marks are the most common marble damage. Diamond grinding removes the affected layer and re-polishes the surface. Most scratches and etch marks can be fully removed — even severe damage can often be dramatically improved.
Bristol's Victorian and Georgian properties in Clifton, Redland and Cotham often have original marble hallways, fireplaces and bathrooms. We treat period marble with the care and experience it deserves — preserving original material wherever possible.

Marble Floor Cleaning FAQ
Can marble floors be restored if they are dull or scratched?
Yes. Diamond polishing and honing removes scratches and etch marks and restores the finish to either a high mirror polish or a soft honed finish. Most marble floors can be significantly restored even when they look beyond help.
Is professional marble cleaning safe?
Yes, completely safe with the right specialist. We are PAS 86 certified and use only pH-neutral, acid-free products formulated for natural stone. Acidic cleaners permanently etch marble — we never use them.
What causes marble floors to go dull?
Acidic substances — wine, citrus, vinegar, many cleaning products — chemically etch the surface and destroy the polish. Foot traffic and grit cause micro-scratches over time. Incorrect cleaning products are the biggest culprit.
Do you seal marble floors after cleaning?
Yes. A penetrating impregnator sealer protects the stone from liquid absorption and staining without altering the appearance. Sealed marble is significantly easier to maintain and much more resistant to future damage.
How long does marble floor cleaning take?
A standard kitchen marble floor takes 2–4 hours. Full restoration including diamond polishing and sealing takes longer — typically a full day for a large area. We give you a clear timescale after the initial assessment.
Do you clean marble in Bristol period properties?
Yes — we regularly restore original marble in Victorian and Georgian properties across Clifton, Redland and Cotham. Period marble requires particular care and experience — we treat it with the respect it deserves.
