c. White Indian Statuario Marble Flooring
Italian Statuario marble is frequently requested for flooring by our homeowners, but because it is so expensive, they often ask us to use Indian Statuario marble instead of Italian marble to meet their budget. White veins encircle the white base of the White Indian Statuario Marble. It often has a white hue and natural textures, and it also has good strength and endurance. It is a stone with a long lifespan of more than 15 years.

However, pink marble can oversaturate the room with colour, so use it sparingly.

It is often used for flooring, stairways, outdoor lobbies, and kitchen and bathroom countertops because of its exquisite appearance.

Dark green floor marble price: ₹65-₹75 per square foot

3. Marble Flooring Price per Square Foot
The marble flooring price per square foot is estimated based on the carpet area of your house (in square feet). Also, there are many different factors that affect your new marble flooring price including the type of marble, labour costs, etc.
For instance, if you chose a marble that costs ₹120 per square foot, and the carpet area of your home is 300 square feet, then the total cost of marble flooring will be 120*300 = ₹36,000. Refer to the table below to know per square foot costs for your choice of marble.
4. Installation Cost
The installation of marble floors can go really wrong if not handled by experts. For instance, marble tiles are delicate and are prone to breaking. They can also be challenging to cut to size for tiling. But don’t worry, the Livspace workforce is highly skilled to provide the best marble flooring for your home at reasonable prices. For basic marble, the marble flooring installation cost may be around ₹100 and ₹140, whereas for customised marble flooring tile designs, the marble tile installation cost may range between ₹250 and ₹300. Refer to the table below to know installation costs for your choice of marble.
5. Labour Cost
The labour costs include the costs for cutting the marble tiles, laying them, matching the patterns and covering the joints. It may be around ₹80 per sq.ft., but can vary based on the marble flooring design you choose. Livspace takes up to three days to install marble floors in a room of a typical size.
*The cost of labour at Livspace is included in the installation cost.
6. Inlaid Flooring Cost
Inlaid marble flooring is a delicate procedure that includes precise cutting and etching marble shapes. It is a time-consuming step and needs expertise. It varies as per the complexity of the design and may spike up to ₹3000 based on the inlay pattern you choose. Contact Livspace designers to know the inlaid flooring cost.
7. Polishing cost
Marble polishing is necessary to maintain the lustre after the marble floor is laid. It is done using an abrasive stone called Carborundum, and a final coating of tin oxide is applied to give it its typical lustre and smoothness. However, for regions with high slip risks, like bathrooms, a tumbled finish is usually preferred. Our designers assess each and every area of your home precisely, and advise on the best type of marble flooring options for you. Marble polishing might cost around ₹60, but varies for different types of marbles. Refer to the table below to know polishing costs for your choice of marble.
