Kota Stone Flooring Polishing Indian Marble Polishing in Delhi NCR
Most Indian marble floors in Delhi NCR have never been professionally ground, so the gloss sits on top of years of old polish. We take it back to clean stone, then polish it properly. Delhi NCR mixes very old housing stock with new high-rise towers, so a single visit can mean Kota stone in one room and Italian marble in the next. We carry pads for both and quote each surface on its own merit.

What changes the price for kota stone flooring polishing price in Delhi NCR
| Factor | Effect on rate | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| Total area | Bigger areas cost less per sq ft | Slab rates above 1,000 sq ft |
| Damage depth | Grinding raises the rate | Decided by the test patch |
| Stone type | Imported and filled slabs take longer | See the surface table |

Ask for one written rate per surface. A single number for the whole house without an inspection always changes later.
Reading a per sq ft quote correctly
- Ask whether grinding is included or quoted separately, because that is the single biggest swing in the number
- Ask what the rate excludes: coatings, crack filling, slab replacement and waste removal are the usual extras
- Check whether the area is charged on carpet area or built-up area, and whether staircases are priced per step
- Confirm the rate applies to the measured floor, not an estimate from photographs
- Insist on one written figure per surface where floors are mixed
| Rate band | Typical work included |
|---|---|
| Lowest band | Maintenance buff on a sound floor |
| Middle band | Diamond polishing, scratch and lane correction |
| Upper band | Grinding, deep correction, crystallisation or coating |
Two quotes can differ by 40 percent for the same floor simply because one includes grinding and the other does not. Compare the scope, not just the number.
Dust and water control is planned before we start: masking on skirting and fittings, wet working instead of dry, and slurry vacuumed as the machine moves rather than left to dry in corners.
Old polish, wax and cleaning residue are stripped before any new finish goes on. Layering a fresh treatment over residue is what makes floors look grey again within weeks.

Kota Stone Flooring Polishing Price - common questions
Can old polish and wax be removed?
Yes. Grinding strips the residue layer completely. That is the only way a new polish bonds to the stone instead of sitting on top of old compound.
Will grinding change the colour of my floor?
It restores the original colour by removing the worn and stained top layer. Floors that have faded unevenly across rooms come back to one uniform shade.
How long does it take?
Most apartments are ground and polished in one to two days, and the floor is walkable the same evening as the final pass.
Do you polish Makrana that has gone grey?
Yes. Greyness is normally surface dirt, mop haze and worn polish. It lifts with grinding and polishing, and we show you a test patch on a hidden corner first.
Does Indian marble need the same treatment as Italian marble?
No. Indian marbles such as Makrana, Katni and Rajnagar are generally harder and less acid-sensitive. They take a different grit sequence and more grinding pressure, but the same acid-free cleaning discipline still applies.
Is the price negotiable?
The rate per sq ft is not inflated to leave room for haggling. We scope honestly: if the floor needs only a buff, we quote a buff instead of a full diamond job, and tell you when the cheaper option will hold.
Do you take advance payment?
The package is confirmed in writing first. Advance for material is normal on large jobs; the balance is settled after the walkthrough.
Why do per sq ft rates differ so much between contractors?
Almost always scope. A rate that excludes grinding, crack filling and coatings looks cheaper until those are added. Ask for the scope in writing and compare the total, not the headline rate.
Is the rate cheaper for larger areas?
Yes. Above roughly 1,000 sq ft we move to slab rates because setup and travel are spread over more work.
How do you measure the area?
On site, with you present, room by room. You see the measurement sheet before the quote is finalised.
