Wet Sanding on Marble Floors in Delhi NCR
Old wax, cement film and grey mop haze sit on top of stone, not inside it. Wet sanding strips that layer without the cloud of dust a dry process creates in an occupied home. 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.

Wet Sanding On Marble Floor rates in Delhi NCR
| Work | Guide band | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Wet sanding only | Rs 5-15 per sq ft | Residue removal |
| Wet sanding plus polishing | Rs 15-25 per sq ft | Dull floors |
| Sanding, grinding and polish | Rs 25-35 per sq ft | Damage and lippage |
| Coating after sanding | Quoted after inspection | Protection |
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.
Waste is removed the same day. Slurry, stripped residue, used pads and packaging leave with the crew instead of going into society bins or being left for you to dispose of.
Nothing is hidden behind a shine. Where a surface has damage that polishing cannot correct, we mark it during inspection and put it in writing, so expectations are set before work starts rather than argued over afterwards.
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.

Wet Sanding On Marble Floor - common questions
Does wet sanding remove a lot of stone?
It removes the coating and the damaged top layer only. Deep lippage needs grinding first, which we identify during inspection.
How messy is it?
We mask surfaces and vacuum slurry as we work, then wash the area before handover. Your furniture and curtains do not end up coated in dust.
Can it be done room by room?
Yes. Most clients do one or two rooms at a time, and dry paths are kept so the house stays usable.
Why wet sanding instead of dry?
Because dust control matters in occupied homes. Water carries the residue away and keeps the surface cool, which protects the stone from heat marks.
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.
