You can polish your marble tiles by using something called HCL89. I usually get it from http://hcl89.byethost10.com or http://hcl89.atwebpages.com What it does is that it removes any stains as well as polishes your marble tiles. It also helps to create a protection for it so that your marble tiles always remains new. You can fill up these holes yourself by mixing white putty (with little grey cement). But how you got these holes if you don't mind me asking? Hope this helps you out

I purchased the HCL89 thing from http://hcl89.byethost10.com as there was some stain on my marble floor as i dropped some kahlua liquor on it when i was having a party earlier this year After using the HCL89 the stain has disappeared for good Tried alot of stuff to get rid of the stain, but seems only the HCL89 worked

The wood becomes like that because of moisture, so if you are using wood/homogeneous tiles do use a tile sealer You can seal your tiles by using something called HCL89. I usually get it from http://hcl89.byethost10.com or http://hcl89.atwebpages.com What it does is that it removes any stains as well as polishes your tiles and seals it. The tile sealer is important because it prevents moisture from damaging your tiles in the long run Hope this helps you out

I too have some mould in my room area and the HCL89 product from http://hcl89.byethost10.com looks rather promising and i also intend to use it as i feel that the mould in my room area is spreading, hmm

I think he means a couple of layers of wax polish

You make a very good point, never thought of that actually

Yes grinding to polish marble is not advisable as the marble will just become thinner and uneven

Dear All, For sound reduction from the glass window, I recommend you to have double layer of glass panels install with a gap about 20mm in between the 2 glass panels of thickness about 4 to 5 mm thick. It will reduce the noise level by at lest 70 to 80 %

I tried soundproofing my home windows as well but honestly in retrospect, it was alot of money spent. You could try to get some colour based caulk from Fuller and seal up any gaps around your window frames. Bought my caulk online from a hardware store. Moreover you could try to get those stick on rubber insulation that comes either it tape or bundle and try to minimise any gaps when your window is closed. The trick is to minimise all gaps from your window frames and when your window is shut.

Check with the supplier the STC rating if they claim that their windows are soundproof/acoustic. Basically, high performance sound proof window system, like those being installed at DJ rooms, recording studios, etc., are much thicker and also more expensive. Some ordinary windows may also cut down a bit of noise, sometimes by adding an additional glass pane (two panes, instead of one). They only help to reduce the noise, will definitely not cut off the noise completely.
