Marble Fitting in Karnataka
New marble looks only as good as the fitting under it. Uneven bedding, hollow corners and wide joints cannot be polished away later, so the laying stage decides the final result. Work in Karnataka is planned as a scheduled visit: the crew and machines travel together on a fixed date, and the rate is written down after the floor is seen in person or from clear photos.
- Gloss and polish-condition check first
- Masking of skirting, walls and fittings
- Diamond polishing to the grit the treatment needs
- Even section-by-section silicate application

What each surface needs
| Treatment | Character | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Sil200 | Fast build, strong initial gloss | Homes and moderate traffic |
| Sil800 | Deeper wet look, holds gloss longer | Lobbies, showrooms, hotels |
| Over new stone | Protects an unworn surface | Recently laid or newly polished floors |
| Over worn stone | Short-lived unless polished first | Only after a full diamond sequence |
Every surface is tested on a hidden patch before work starts, so you see the result before committing to the whole floor.
How the job runs
- Assessment to confirm silicate suits the stone and the room
- Diamond polishing to 800-1500 grit so there is a finish worth locking in
- Silicate applied in sections and buffed while it reacts
- Second pass on heavy areas for even gloss
- Gloss check and a list of cleaners to avoid

Rates depend on surface type, damage depth, area and access. The figure is written down before work begins.
How to get a quote that does not change
- WhatsApp photos of the dullest area and the worst stain speed up the first estimate
- A free on-site inspection gives the final figure, because gloss readings and damage depth cannot be judged from a photo
- The written quote lists surface by surface: area, rate, scope and exclusions
- Coatings, crack repairs and slab replacement appear as separate optional lines
- The figure is valid for thirty days unless you ask us to hold it longer
If a contractor quotes a single number for a whole house without inspecting it, that number will change once work starts. We would rather quote after looking.
Quality is checked twice: once mid-job, when the first section is finished and you can see the achievable gloss, and once at handover when the whole surface should read evenly under daylight and under your own lighting.
Access is confirmed before the visit: parking, lift use, gate entry, working-hour restrictions and any society paperwork. Sorting this in advance is what stops a scheduled job from becoming a wasted trip.
Where a floor has mixed surfaces, each one gets its own pad sequence and compound. Treating Kota stone and imported marble with the same approach is how floors get patchy.

- Product chosen for the stone, not one bottle for all

Marble Fitting - common questions
Is silicate the same as waxing the floor?
No. Wax sits on the surface and wipes off. Silicate reacts with the calcium in the marble and hardens the surface layer, so the gloss is part of the stone and survives mopping.
How long does it last?
Roughly two to three years in homes and one to two years in heavy-footfall lobbies. Using a pH-neutral cleaner instead of acid is the biggest factor.
Can it be applied to a floor that was never polished?
It can, but it is rarely worth it, because silicate amplifies whatever surface it meets and locks in scratches. We polish to 800-1500 grit first or refuse the treatment.
Will it make the floor slippery?
A high-gloss finish is smoother when wet. In bathrooms, kitchens and on staircases we recommend a satin or crystallised finish instead of mirror gloss.
How long before we can walk on it?
The floor is walkable the same evening. Only normal drying after the polishing stage is needed, with no curing days.
Can I get a quote on WhatsApp?
Yes as an indicative band. Send photos in daylight of the dullest area, any stains and one close-up of the surface. The final figure is confirmed after the free on-site inspection.
How long is the quote valid?
Thirty days from the inspection date. Material and product rates move, so we do not hold figures indefinitely, but we will tell you if anything changes.
Is the inspection really free?
Yes. There is no charge for the site visit or the measurement, and no obligation to proceed afterwards.
