What is included
Grinding, honing, crystallisation and sealing for marble, travertine and terrazzo, gloss metered to 85 GU. Marble dulls because the surface is scratched and etched, not because it is dirty. We restore the stone with diamond abrasives, bring back the shine and seal it against the next spill.
- Surface checked for etching, scratches, resin fills and backlighting
- Dust lifted and the stone washed with a pH neutral stone cleaner
- Light etch marks and dullness treated by hand after a small test
- Penetrating sealer applied where the onyx is unsealed or worn
How we carry out onyx stone cleaning
Onyx is used for statement pieces: backlit bar fronts, vanity tops, feature walls and the occasional floor inlay. It is a translucent calcite stone, softer than most marble, and many slabs are backed with mesh and filled with clear resin in their natural cracks. Lemon juice, vinegar, perfume and many bathroom cleaners etch it, leaving dull patches that look like water marks. Hard water spots are common on vanity tops. The supervisor checks the surface, the fills and any lighting behind it before cleaning.
Cleaning uses a pH neutral stone cleaner, warm water and soft microfibre or white pads, never scouring powder or a green abrasive pad. On backlit panels the lighting is switched off so the stone is cool and the electrics stay dry. Light etching and dullness are worked out by hand with a fine polishing compound, tested first on a small area, because heavy machine polishing can cut through a thin slab or soften the resin. Where the onyx is unsealed, a penetrating sealer goes on last.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey and diagnosis. A technician inspects the system or surface, takes readings and photographs, and explains what was found in plain language.
- Written quotation. You receive a written quotation against a defined scope before any work starts. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately.
- Protected, supervised work. The work area is protected and isolated, and the job is carried out by our own technicians under a named supervisor.
- Testing. Every job ends with a measured test suited to the discipline, so the result is a reading and a photograph and not an opinion.
- Report and warranty. The completed report reaches you within the hour. Any failed point is put right free of charge within 48 hours.

Onyx Stone Cleaning in Nice, DAMAC Lagoons: what we plan for
DAMAC Lagoons clusters are made up of townhouses and villas close to the swimming lagoons, most of them handed over recently. In a townhouse this is normally a short visit, and it can be combined with other work in the same booking.
New homes in the Lagoons benefit from an AC clean after handover, because ducts and filters hold dust from the building works.
Both communities are gated. Residents register our crew through the community app, and apartment buildings need a work permit and a service lift booking.

Questions about onyx stone cleaning in Nice, DAMAC Lagoons
What does onyx stone cleaning include?
Onyx is soft, often backlit and easily etched by acids. We clean it with pH neutral products and soft pads, and treat dull or etched areas by hand after testing. The work includes surface checked for etching, scratches, resin fills and backlighting; dust lifted and the stone washed with a pH neutral stone cleaner; light etch marks and dullness treated by hand after a small test.
Can etch marks on onyx be removed?
Light etching usually responds to hand polishing with a fine compound. Deeper marks need more work, and on thin or backlit slabs we keep it gentle to avoid exposing the backing. We test a small area and show you the result before treating the rest.
What should I avoid using on an onyx vanity?
Anything acidic or abrasive: vinegar, lemon, limescale removers, bleach based bathroom sprays and scouring creams. Wipe spills quickly, especially perfume and cosmetics, and use a pH neutral cleaner made for stone for everyday cleaning.
