A marble floor can lose its shine within a few years, however glossy it was on the day it was first laid. Sand carried in on shoes, the wrong cleaning products and heavy use leave fine scratches, dullness and stains on the surface. Marble grinding is the process of removing this worn thin layer step by step with diamond abrasives to bring out the sound surface of the stone again. With our Antalya-based team, we do this work with our own machines on the marble floors of homes, villas, hotels and businesses across Antalya, Mersin, Adana and Muğla.
What does our marble grinding service include?
Grinding is not just running a machine over the floor. We take care of every step from preparation to handover, and we decide together with you on additional treatments such as polishing and protection, depending on how the space is used.
- Leveling height differences: Height differences between slabs are evened out with coarse grinding, so no edges are left to catch your feet or trap dirt.
- Scratch and wear removal: Dullness and fine scratches along walking paths are removed completely with diamond tools.
- Stain grinding: Acid, limescale, water ring and detergent marks are ground away together with the surface layer; a poultice is also applied for deep stains.
- Progressive polishing: The diamond grits are refined in sequence to close the surface and bring it to the desired level of shine.
- Crystallization polish (optional): To make the shine last longer, the surface is hardened with a crystallization polish.
- Impregnation (optional): In kitchens, bathrooms and dining areas, the stone is saturated with a protective sealer against water and oil.
- Protection and cleaning: Baseboards, door frames and furnishings are protected; when the job is done, the area is handed over clean.
Places where we do marble grinding
We work in every interior space with marble flooring. In occupied homes and open businesses, we proceed section by section without disrupting daily routines.
- Apartments and villas: Living room, hallway, bedroom and entrance floors.
- Hotels: Lobby, corridor, restaurant and room floors; maintenance before and between seasons.
- Housing complex common areas: Entrance halls, areas in front of elevators, stair landings.
- Businesses: Store, office, plaza, clinic and restaurant floors.
- Wet areas: Bathroom and kitchen marble, with a matte finish where slip resistance is needed.
- Balconies and terraces: Outdoor marble dulled by sun and salty air.
How we work
Not every marble can take the same treatment. That's why, before starting, we look at the floor and draw up a plan based on the type of stone and its degree of wear.
- Survey: We inspect the floor on site and tell you the number of grinding stages needed and the price the same day.
- Preparation: We move or cover the furniture and tape off the baseboards and door frames.
- Coarse grinding: With coarse diamonds, we remove height differences between slabs, deep scratches, and the worn layer.
- Fine grinding and polishing: We step down through finer diamond grits, bringing the surface to the desired level of gloss.
- Handover: We clean the area, inspect the floor together with you, and explain daily care.
During wet grinding, we remove the slurry with a wet vacuum as we work; rooms we are not working in can continue to be used while the job is in progress.
Glossy, satin or matte
The same floor can be finished at different levels of sheen. We make the choice together, based on how the space is used.
- Glossy: Reflects light like a mirror and gives a striking result in living rooms, lobbies and entrances.
- Satin: Marks and dust are less visible, and the floor stays looking good longer in high-traffic areas.
- Matte: Gives a natural stone look and reduces slipping in wet areas such as bathrooms and pool surrounds.
To make a glossy finish last longer, we recommend crystallization polish, and for kitchens and dining areas, impregnating sealer.
Marble honing and polishing in Antalya, Mersin, Adana and Muğla
The climate and building stock differ across the four provinces, and so do the factors that wear down marble. On the coast of Antalya and Muğla, sand and salty air are the biggest enemies of the floor; in Mersin it is high humidity; and in Adana it is hard, limescale-rich water and summer heat. We plan the honing work with these factors in mind, and we also explain what to watch out for after the job.
- Antalya: Residential and hotel projects in all districts, especially Muratpaşa, Konyaaltı, Lara, Kemer, Belek, Side and Alanya.
- Mersin: Floors in housing complexes, villas and commercial premises in Yenişehir, Mezitli, Erdemli and Silifke.
- Adana: Marble in homes, office towers and stores in Seyhan, Çukurova and Sarıçam.
- Muğla: Floors in villas, hotels and holiday homes in Bodrum, Marmaris, Fethiye and Dalaman.
We schedule jobs in distant districts through crew and equipment planning so that they are completed in a single visit.
Pricing and quotes
Marble grinding (honing) is priced per square meter. We give the final price after seeing the floor on site; the inspection is free of charge. The main factors that determine the price are:
- Size of the area: The unit price decreases as the square meterage increases.
- Type of marble: The diamond abrasive sequence and the labor time differ between hard and soft marble.
- Condition of the floor: Uneven levels, deep scratches and burn marks extend the rough grinding time.
- Additional treatments: Crystallization polish and impregnation (sealing) are priced separately.
- How full the space is: In a furnished home, extra time is needed for moving and protecting the items.
For a preliminary estimate, simply send a few photos and approximate measurements via WhatsApp.
Warranty and delivery
We carry out marble polishing with our own team and our own machines; we do not subcontract the work. Before we start, we tell you clearly what will be done, how long it will take, and the price.
- Fixed price: The price quoted at the inspection is the price charged when the job is finished.
- Clean work: We protect your belongings and the surrounding surfaces while we work.
- Joint inspection: Before handover, we examine the floor together with you; leaving no waves, rings, or dull spots is a condition of our delivery.
- After-delivery support: If you notice a problem later, we will come back and fix it on site.
