Sandstone is a warm-toned, porous sedimentary stone widely used in Melbourne for outdoor paving, retaining walls and building facades. Over time, sandstone surfaces lose their natural lustre from foot traffic, daily use, incorrect cleaning products and microscopic surface scratching. Aus Floor Care’s professional sandstone polishing service uses a progressive diamond polishing system to restore a high-gloss or satin finish — removing surface scratches and dullness while revealing the true colour and veining of your sandstone. The result is a surface that looks showroom-new.

A standard sandstone benchtop takes 1–2 hours to polish. Most residential sandstone floor polishing is completed in a single day. Large commercial sandstone floors may take 1–2 days. We provide an accurate timeframe during our free on-site assessment.
Most sandstone surfaces can be polished from a smooth satin finish through to a deep mirror-like high gloss. The achievable result depends on the sandstone's condition and the grit progression we work through. We discuss your preferred finish before starting.
With correct maintenance using pH-neutral products and periodic professional care, a polished sandstone finish typically lasts 3–5 years before requiring re-polishing. High-traffic commercial sandstone floors may need re-polishing sooner.
A polished sandstone finish gives a high-gloss mirror result, stunning on floors and decorative surfaces. A honed finish is matte to satin and preferred for sandstone benchtops and bathrooms as it conceals everyday marks better. We show you samples of both and advise on the best option for your specific use.
