Marble Installation and Fitting in Karnataka
We lay, level and finish marble so the joints are tight, the surface is flat and the polish takes evenly. Bad fitting is what forces grinding later, and that costs more than doing it right. 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.

What each surface needs
| Surface | Correct approach | Never use |
|---|---|---|
| Travertine | Neutral clean, hone, seal | Acid cleaners |
| Limestone | Neutral clean, seal | Acid and abrasive pads |

| Pitted areas | Clean into the pits, refill | High-pressure washing |
Every surface is tested on a hidden patch before work starts, so you see the result before committing to the whole floor.

- Masking of surrounding surfaces
- Neutral cleaning of the texture
- Filler touch-up and light honing
- Sealing and handover
Marble Installation rates in Karnataka
| Work | Guide band | Notes |

Rates depend on surface type, damage depth, area and access. The figure is written down before work begins.
How our charges are built
| Charge component | What it covers | How it varies |
|---|---|---|
| Rate per sq ft | Cleaning, grinding, polishing, finishing | Surface type and area |
| Damage correction | Scratch, etch and stain treatment | Severity, decided on the test patch |
| Access and edges | Staircases, corners, upper floors | Hand work needed |
| Coatings | Silicate, crystallisation, nano, sealer | Optional, quoted separately |
- Nothing is added mid-job. If we find something the inspection could not show, we stop and re-quote with you
- Material is included in the rate, not billed as an extra
- Slab rates apply above 1,000 sq ft instead of per-room pricing
- One written figure per surface, so a mixed floor is priced line by line
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.
After-care guidance is handed over in writing: which cleaner to use, how to mop, and what to avoid during the first week. Most repeat problems trace back to cleaning products rather than the work itself.
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.

Marble Installation - common questions
Why is acid so damaging to travertine?
Travertine and limestone are calcium-based. Acid dissolves the surface binder, which leaves white etch marks and opens the texture, and the damage is permanent unless the surface is honed back.
Will cleaning remove dirt from the pits?
Yes, with the right brushes and neutral cleaner, but the pits will refill over time. Filling open pits at the same visit is the practical fix.
Can travertine be polished to a shine?
It can be honed or lightly polished, but a mirror finish on soft, pitted stone is neither natural nor durable. We usually recommend a honed finish with sealer.
How often should it be sealed?
Every twelve to twenty-four months for floors, and more often in wet areas. Sealer slows absorption rather than blocking it.
Are there extra charges on top of the quoted rate?
No, provided the scope does not change. The rate covers preparation, products, machines and clean-up. Coatings and slab repairs are the only optional items, and they are listed separately in the written quote.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is covered within the quoted rate for addresses in our service cities. For outlying areas we tell you the travel component upfront rather than adding it at handover.
What if the work needs more time than estimated?
That is our risk, not yours. The rate is per sq ft for the agreed scope, so a slow patch or a stubborn stain does not increase your bill.
