Marble crystallisation in City Walk, applied after honing to harden the surface and lift the shine, on stone that is suitable for it.
Crystallisation is a chemical and mechanical process that hardens the very top of the stone and raises gloss. Applied to the right stone after proper preparation it is excellent; applied as a shortcut over damage it seals the damage in.
In City Walk, a walkable, managed district where external cleaning is handled centrally and the work is nearly all interior, so the preparation matters as much as the process itself.
Marble crystallisation in City Walk, item by item
- Assessment of whether the stone suits crystallisation at all
- Honing first, so the process is not applied over etching or scratches
- Crystallisation in controlled passes with the correct pad and product
- Edges and thresholds finished by hand
- Slip resistance considered, particularly around wet areas
- Aftercare so the finish is not stripped by the wrong cleaner
Method, not improvisation
- Never applied over unresolved damage
- Not used on stones or finishes where it is inappropriate, and we say so
- Machine speed and pad matched to the stone
- Neutral maintenance products recommended afterwards

Marble crystallisation in City Walk: what owners ask
No. Polishing is mechanical refinement of the surface; crystallisation is a chemical hardening that raises gloss. They are often used together.
A high-gloss finish is more slippery when wet. Around pools and wet rooms we will recommend a different finish rather than the shiniest one.
It depends entirely on traffic and on what the floor is cleaned with afterwards. Acidic products strip it quickly.
Yes. City Walk sits on one of our route days, which is why an inspection is usually available within a working day. Equipment routes here run through service corridors rather than the main entrances
