Terracotta Tile Cleaning Tile Polishing in Delhi NCR
Most tile floors in Delhi NCR look dull because the protective factory sheen has worn through in walking routes. We clean the surface properly, then refine it so the tile reads evenly again. 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.
- Free inspection of tile type and surface condition
- Masking of skirting, doors and fittings
- Machine scrubbing to remove residue and grout haze
- Surface refining with matched pads
At a glance
- Vitrified & ceramic

Terracotta Tile Cleaning Services rates in Delhi NCR
| Work | Guide band | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Tile deep cleaning | Rs 5-15 per sq ft | Haze, residue, grout film |
| Tile polishing | Rs 15-25 per sq ft | Worn sheen, scratch haze |
| Deep restoration | Rs 25-35 per sq ft | Heavy wear and staining |
| Sealing or top-up coat | Quoted after inspection | High-traffic floors |
Rates depend on surface type, damage depth, area and access. The figure is written down before work begins.
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.
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.
The written rate is the final amount for the agreed scope. If we open the floor and find something the inspection could not show, we stop and re-quote with you before continuing, not after.

Terracotta Tile Cleaning Services - common questions
Will polishing make my tiles slippery?
A gloss finish is smoother when wet. For bathrooms and balconies we clean and seal instead of polishing, or add an anti-skid treatment.
Do you clean grout at the same time?
Yes. Grout lines are cleaned in the same visit, because a polished floor with black grout looks unfinished.
How long does it take?
Bathrooms and kitchens finish the same day; a full apartment usually takes one working day.
Can vitrified tiles really be polished?
Yes. The surface haze is usually residue and micro-scratches, which lift with the right pads. Tiles that have lost their pattern through deep abrasion cannot be restored, and we say so after testing.
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.
