Marble flooring gives Dubai villas, apartments, offices and commercial properties an elegant and luxurious appearance. However, daily foot traffic, dust, sand, furniture movement, spills and unsuitable cleaning products can gradually make marble floors look dull, scratched and lifeless.
One of the most common questions property owners ask is: How much does marble polishing cost in Dubai?
The answer depends on several factors, including the size of the marble area, its current condition, the type of marble and the level of restoration required. A simple polishing job is very different from a complete marble restoration involving diamond grinding, scratch removal, honing and crystallization.
For this reason, professional marble polishing companies normally inspect the floor before providing a final quotation.
As a general 2026 Dubai market guide, marble polishing can range approximately from AED 15 to AED 50 per square metre for many residential polishing and restoration jobs, while heavily damaged marble, extensive grinding or premium stone restoration can cost considerably more. Published Dubai pricing guides show that basic polishing may fall around AED 15–45 per sqm, while more intensive restoration can reach AED 90–150+ per sqm depending on the scope.
These are indicative market ranges, not a fixed Repland price. The actual cost should be calculated after checking the marble’s condition and the required treatment.
There is no single price that applies to every marble floor. Here are the main factors that affect your quotation.
1. Size of the Marble Area:- The total square metre area has a major effect on the price.
For example, polishing a small apartment entrance is different from polishing the marble flooring throughout a large villa.
Larger areas can sometimes receive a better per-square-metre rate, while very small jobs may have a minimum service charge because equipment, transportation and labour still need to be arranged.
2. Condition of the Marble:- A marble floor with only a slight loss of shine may require a relatively simple polishing process.
However, if the floor has:
then additional grinding, honing or restoration may be necessary. The worse the condition, the more labour and equipment are generally required.
3. Type of Marble:- Different marble varieties respond differently to polishing. Carrara, Calacatta, Emperador, Crema Marfil and other natural stones may require different polishing techniques, abrasives and finishing products.
Some delicate or premium marble surfaces need slower and more controlled treatment to avoid damaging the stone.
4. Diamond Grinding Requirements:- Not every marble floor needs grinding. If the surface has deep scratches, lippage or significant unevenness, diamond grinding may be required before polishing.
The process normally involves progressively finer diamond abrasives to remove surface imperfections and prepare the stone for polishing. This makes the job more expensive than a simple maintenance polish.
5. Crystallization:- Many property owners want a high-gloss finish after polishing. Marble crystallization can be used as part of the finishing process to improve the appearance and hardness of the surface. It is commonly offered alongside polishing rather than as a replacement for proper mechanical preparation.
The cost depends on whether crystallization is included in the polishing package or quoted separately.
6. Stain and Scratch Removal:- If your marble has localized stains, etching or scratches, these areas may need additional treatment.
For example, kitchen marble countertops can have oil stains, acidic marks or food-related discoloration. Bathroom marble can develop water marks and soap-related deposits.
A professional inspection helps determine whether the affected area can be polished, chemically treated or requires a more intensive restoration procedure.
