Stone Cleaning Berlin - Material-Specific Care for Marble, Granite, Sandstone & Slate
Natural stone rewards the right method and punishes the wrong one. Immo-Clean GmbH identifies stone type on site, then applies pH-matched chemistry, low-pressure mechanics, and optional impregnation to marble, granite, sandstone, and slate. Tariff-bound permanent staff preserve colour, slip resistance, and value for hotel lobbies, façades, and heritage buildings.
Stone Cleaning: Material-specific care for natural stone
Tariff-bound permanent staff, pH-matched chemistry, and optional impregnation keep marble, granite, sandstone, and slate looking their best. Test areas document compatibility before any full deployment.

Because granite, marble, and sandstone each carry different method costs, we price stone work only after seeing and testing the surface - minimum order values and area tiers are on the Pricing page, and the free survey produces a zone-by-zone quote with a binding fixed price.
Stone Cleaning: Material-specific care for natural & cast stone
The Stone Cleaning Berlin service from Immo-Clean GmbH covers marble, granite, sandstone, slate, terrazzo, and concrete stone across interiors, façades, and outdoor paving. Stone-type identification, pH-matched chemistry, and an on-site site manager ensure that heritage and modern surfaces receive verifiable, value-preserving care.
Stone-type identification before cleaning
We test a hidden area on site with reagent drops and visual inspection. Marble and limestone react differently to acids than granite and slate. The result determines whether we use a pH-neutral, acidic, or alkaline cycle - preventing permanent etching and protecting grout, seals, and finishes.
Standards and heritage coordination
DIN EN 13549 benchmarks guide our quality loops. For heritage surfaces, we coordinate with the relevant heritage authority and document material identification. We also follow BIV guidance and use pH-neutral agents where the surface and stone type require them.
A dedicated site manager on site
A named stone specialist leads every project: they run the material identification, brief the crew on the stone's sensitivities, and remain your direct contact from the test area to the final polish - present on site for the duration of larger restoration work. Current stone projects range from hotel lobbies in Berlin-Mitte and retail floors in Charlottenburg to heritage staircases in Pankow, Spandau, and Köpenick - the full footprint is listed on the Berlin service areas page.
Documented results and complementary services
Documentation in stone work is material evidence: each zone is photographed before and after with timestamps, and the closing report names the identified stone, the pH of every agent used, and the impregnation batch - the file an owner or insurer can rely on years later. Our facade cleaning in Berlin, floor cleaning in Berlin, and basic cleaning in Berlin complement this service.
Stone Cleaning in All Berlin Districts & Brandenburg
Every stone assignment in Berlin-Mitte, Charlottenburg, Friedrichshain, Kreuzberg, Spandau, or Köpenick starts with the same discipline: identify the stone, test the agent, then clean. Marble lobbies, terrazzo staircases, and sandstone portals are planned and priced per surface - never as an anonymous floor area. The same material standard applies to properties in Pankow, Neukölln, Wilmersdorf, Schöneberg, Tempelhof, Steglitz, and beyond - all regions are covered on the Berlin service areas page.
Berlin-Mitte & Eastern Districts
In Berlin-Mitte we restore hotel-lobby marble and historic sandstone portals, in Friedrichshain new-build facades with efflorescence issues, in Lichtenberg industrial concrete floors, and in Hellersdorf and Marzahn large mosaic estate entrances.
Kreuzberg, Neukölln & Northern Districts
Stone cleaning in Kreuzberg addresses historic terrazzo staircases around SO36, while stone cleaning in Neukölln covers restaurant tile floors around Hermannplatz. In Pankow and Reinickendorf we mainly treat limestone entrances and stair treads, where the wrong chemistry would etch permanently.
Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf & City West
City West stone is prestigious and sensitive: in Charlottenburg we maintain granite entrances off Kurfürstendamm, in Wilmersdorf travertine floors around Olivaer Platz, and in Schöneberg listed Bavarian Quarter staircases.
South, West & Brandenburg
In southern Berlin we cover Tempelhof spa wet areas, Steglitz sandstone portals, Zehlendorf villa floors, Lichterfelde, and Treptow. Spandau brings polished granite in retail centres, while Köpenick and Adlershof add terrace paving and laboratory-grade stone floors. Stone-care frameworks also run in Potsdam and across the state of Brandenburg.

Grease and stains are removed from tiled and stone floors while protecting the grout - suited for kitchens, dining rooms, and guest toilets.
Medical Practice
Stone reception floors and natural-stone wet areas are cleaned with pH-neutral, RKI-aligned methods.
Residential Building
Travertine apartment floors, marble staircases, and terrace paving receive routine and intensive care without surface damage.
Façade & Outdoor Paving
Sandstone, brick, clinker, and concrete façades are cleaned by low-pressure mechanics - preserving structure and original colour.
Gallery & Museum
Highly sensitive stone floors and plinths receive dust-free, material-friendly care aligned with conservation standards.
Industrial & Logistics
Heavy-duty concrete floors are degreased and sealed for easier ongoing maintenance in warehouses and production halls.
Stone Types, Agents, and Methods We Use
Choosing the right method protects structure, colour, and slip resistance. Before any full deployment, we test the substrate, the soil, and material compatibility.
Marble & Limestone
Calcareous stone - pH-neutral maintenance cleaners only. Acids etch within seconds. Diamond grinding, polishing, and crystallisation bring back original gloss.
Granite & Basalt
Acid-tolerant igneous stone. Impregnation reduces future staining by up to 70% without changing the polished or honed appearance.
Sandstone & Brick
Soft, porous sedimentary stone - low-pressure mechanics only. Strong agents loosen the surface and alter the colour depth.
Terrazzo & Cast Stone
Composite stone with binder - matched chemistry preserves the binder and the aggregate. Routine polishing keeps the surface uniform.
Stone Cleaning in Eight Clear Steps
From the material test to the handover photo, every stone assignment follows the same documented sequence.
- Stone identification: we identify the stone type through reagent drops, visual inspection, and a documented test on a hidden area.
- Every zone is recorded with its stone type, finish, method, agent, and defined result in a clear service specification.
- The site manager divides the property into understandable zones, plans routes, equipment stations, and time windows.
- A fixed team is briefed on stone sensitivity, house rules, safety requirements, and heritage constraints before deployment.
- Diamond pads, polishers, crystallisers, and matched agents are prepared for the specific stone type of each zone.
- The team works to the agreed schedule and documents areas completed, agents used, and any unusual findings.
- An invisible hydrophobic impregnation is applied where extra protection against water, oil, and graffiti is required.
- The handover pack contains before/after photos per zone, the material test record, and the agreed care intervals - so nothing about the stone's condition is left to memory.
What Determines the Price? A Worked Example
Three variables decide the cost of stone cleaning: the material (calcareous or silicate), the area and layout, and the method - from pH-neutral maintenance cleaning through polishing to grinding with diamond pads. A binding figure follows the free, on-site material test.
What factors into the quote
- Stone type and sensitivity - granite tolerates acidic cleaning, while marble and limestone etch within seconds; identification determines method, agent, and time per square metre
- Area and layout - a connected lobby floor costs less per m² than many small rooms; corners, stairs, and edges add manual work
- Method and finish - routine cleaning, polishing, crystallisation, and grinding carry different time and equipment costs; optional impregnation is priced separately
- Billing model - care cycles that combine daily dust mopping with periodic deep cleaning are billed per visited zone; one-off grinding or crystallisation is quoted as a separate restoration item
Fixed price after the survey
For stone surfaces we quote per defined result - for example "entrance zone degreased, polished, and impregnated" - rather than per operator hour, because material, area, and method drive the effort: acid-sensitive calcite surfaces need neutral agents and more passes, granite tolerates sharper chemistry, and grinding or crystallisation adds machine time per square metre. Each zone, method, and any impregnation appears as its own line in the quote. The binding figure follows the free site survey, including the material test. Pricing overview.

Case Study: Hotel Lobby in Mitte
A representative example of how we restore a high-traffic marble lobby in central Berlin. The concrete figures vary depending on the property.
Starting situation: A hotel lobby in Mitte with 280 m² of polished marble. Years of foot traffic, cleaning-agent residue, and wine spills had dulled the surface. The hotel wanted to restore the original shine without replacement and without disrupting guests.
Assessment and plan: We tested a hidden area with reagent drops to confirm calcareous marble, then planned a three-step programme: diamond grinding to remove scratches, polishing to bring back the gloss, and crystallisation to harden the surface.
Implementation with a fixed team: A coordinated team executed the programme across three night shifts between 22:00 and 06:00. Optional impregnation was applied to reduce future staining, and guests used a side entrance during the work.
What changed for the property
- 280 m² of marble restored to original gloss
- Guest disruption avoided through night-shift planning
- Optional impregnation reduced future staining
- No replacement costs - surface preserved in place
- Hotel lobby guest-satisfaction rating rose measurably
