How Much Does Marble Polishing Cost Cost in Hong Kong?
Hong Kong market reference price
Marble flooring and wall cladding are common in premium Hong Kong residential and commercial properties, but marble scratches and stains easily and requires periodic professional polishing and care. Marble restoration involves grinding (scratch removal), polishing (restoring lustre), and crystallisation (Crystal Formation — enhancing hardness and stain resistance).

The marble care market is led by specialist stone care companies; some cleaning companies also offer basic marble cleaning and crystallisation. Premium properties typically hold long-term maintenance contracts with stone care firms. Services are broadly categorised as: routine care (crystallisation maintenance), moderate restoration (local grinding plus crystallisation), and full restoration (complete grinding and refinishing).
Regular crystallisation maintenance (every 6–12 months) is far more cost-effective than waiting for severe damage and requiring full restoration. When choosing a stone care company, ask to see before-and-after photos of previous jobs to verify their technical standard.
Frequently Asked Questions
Results from a full restoration with crystallisation maintenance can last 1–3 years depending on traffic and daily care. High-traffic areas (entrance hall, corridors) may need re-crystallisation annually; low-traffic areas (bedrooms) every 2–3 years. Avoiding acidic cleaners (e.g., vinegar-based products) significantly prolongs results.
Mild water stains (hard water mineral deposits) can usually be removed through crystallisation; severe staining may require light grinding. Never use acidic cleaners (e.g., toilet cleaners) on marble — acid etches the surface and causes permanent dulling. Use neutral pH cleaners with a slightly damp cloth for routine care.
Grinding produces stone dust and water (wet grinding), so furniture on the floor should be removed to allow full access. The floor needs 4–8 hours to dry after completion before walking on it — scheduling on a day you are out or over a weekend is advisable.
