Italian marble is expensive, delicately veined and unforgiving of careless work. Hemaram Kumawat and the Marble Fixing Flooring team have fixed imported marble since 2000, planning every slab, protecting the white tone and finishing joints and polish so the floor reads as one continuous stone surface for homes and projects in Eastern West Khasi Hills.

Italian and other imported marbles such as Statuario, Botticino, Perlato Royal, Dyna and Dark Emperador are softer, more porous and far more sensitive than the Indian marble most masons grow up fixing. A Makrana slab can forgive a grey cement bed or a rough cut. A Statuario slab will not. Grey cement shows through as a dull patch, rusty water from the bed turns into yellow stains, and a careless joint breaks the vein that you paid a premium for. That is why Italian marble fixing is a specialist job, not just a bigger tile job. The slabs are also thinner and often reinforced with fibreglass mesh and resin at the factory, which changes how they are cut, handled and bedded.
When people look for an Italian marble fitting contractor or an Italian marble installation team in Eastern West Khasi Hills, this is the gap they need filled: experienced marble mistris (karigars) who have handled imported slabs before, a supervisor who understands layout and finish levels, and a clear labour rate per sq ft before work begins. That is the role our team takes on, from the first slab check to the final polish.
Since 2000, Hemaram Kumawat and the Marble Fixing Flooring team have fixed imported marble in bungalows, apartments, showrooms and temples. Our approach starts before the first slab is lifted: we check every slab at site, note cracks, resin-filled areas and backing mesh, and plan the layout so the strongest veins fall in the living room or the feature wall, not under the sofa or inside a cupboard.
On the floor itself, we prepare a level, cured base and fix with white cement or a suitable white stone adhesive, depending on the marble, slab thickness and site conditions. Light-coloured stones like Statuario, Botticino and Nano White are especially prone to staining from grey cement, so the bedding material matters as much as the stone. Joints are kept tight and even, and lippage between slabs is controlled during fixing so the polishing stage does not have to grind away too much stone.
Finishing is where Italian marble earns its reputation. After curing, the joints are filled with colour-matched epoxy or Tenax, and the floor goes through staged diamond polishing, from levelling grits to the final shine. Depending on the client, we finish to a high gloss mirror polish or a softer honed look.
We work from architectural drawings and site measurements, and coordinate with architects, interior designers and builders on finished floor levels, skirting heights and staircase details. The client usually buys the marble; we guide on selection, check slab quantities against the layout and handle the fixing, finishing and polishing.

White and cream marbles like Statuario, Botticino, China White, Nano White and Australia White show every flaw. We fix them on a white cement or white adhesive bed, avoid rusty water and grey slurry near the slab, and protect the surface during other site work so the floor stays bright and even after final polishing.
Beige and brown imported marbles such as Perlato Royal, Dyna and Dark Emperador are often used in living rooms, lobbies and staircases. Their veins and natural cracks need careful handling, resin-filled areas need checking, and joints are filled with a tinted epoxy or Tenax so they disappear into the stone colour rather than standing out as grey lines.
For TV walls, lobby panels and bathroom walls, slabs are numbered and laid out dry so the veins mirror each other across the joint. We use adhesive and dry fixing methods suited to the wall height and slab weight, and keep joints fine enough that the book-match reads as one continuous design.
Large-format plain flooring with minimal joints, or designer floors with borders, medallions and inlays combining Italian marble with Indian stones and granite. Patterns are marked from the drawing, cuts are made by machine, and every piece is dry-fitted before final fixing so the design lines up across rooms.
Treads, risers, nosing, moulding and skirting cut from imported slabs for straight, dog-leg and spiral stairs. We match vein direction from step to step, finish edges with rounding or grooving for safety and comfort, and keep riser heights consistent with the finished floor levels on each landing, so every step feels the same underfoot.
Staged diamond polishing to mirror or honed finish on new floors, plus restoration of dull, scratched or stained Italian marble. We also correct faulty work: re-cutting uneven joints, lifting and refitting hollow or cracked slabs, grinding out lippage and re-filling joints, using machinery and pads suited to soft imported stone.
For Eastern West Khasi Hills, Meghalaya, our core team travels from Rajasthan with its own cutting, fixing and polishing machinery. On larger sites we arrange skilled local labour for daily work while our experienced fixers handle layout, cutting, joints and finishing.
Share your plan, room sizes and chosen marble. We check site levels, base condition and the slabs themselves for cracks, resin, mesh and shade variation, and confirm whether the quantity is enough for the planned layout.
Slabs are numbered and laid out dry room by room so the best veins land in visible areas, book-matched panels line up and cuts at walls and doors are balanced. You approve the layout before fixing starts.
The base is levelled and cured, then slabs are fixed on a white cement or white adhesive bed with controlled joint width and lippage. Fixed areas are covered and kept free from foot traffic and other trades while they cure.
After curing, joints are cleaned out and filled with colour-matched epoxy or Tenax. Any remaining height difference between slabs is ground flat with coarse diamond pads so the floor becomes one even surface.
Fine diamond stages bring the marble to a mirror or honed finish. We check the floor under light, touch up joints and edges, and explain care and cleaning so the Italian marble keeps its shine.
Led by Hemaram Kumawat with 25+ years on site, every project is planned and supervised directly — from measurement and layout to joint filling and final polishing.
Start on WhatsAppHemaram Kumawat has worked with marble, granite and stone since 2000, from Makrana and Indian stones to imported Italian slabs, so the team understands how each stone behaves before, during and after fixing.
Slabs are inspected, layouts are planned and white-base materials are used where the marble demands it. Our aim is that the costliest material on your site is fixed with the least wastage and no avoidable stains.
We follow architectural drawings, finished floor levels and finish specs, and coordinate with architects, contractors and interior designers. Collaborations include projects for clients of Mahadev Marmo in Kishangarh and Udaipur.
Based in Rajasthan, our expert team handles sites in Udaipur, Jaipur, Kishangarh, Jodhpur, Ahmedabad, Gurugram, Bhopal, Dehradun and more, and can arrange skilled local labour for daily work on larger projects.
The main factors are the total area, plain or designer layout, slab size and thickness, number of cuts at walls, doors and steps, base condition, fixing material, epoxy or Tenax joint filling, and the finish level for polishing. Staircases, book-matched walls and inlays take more time than plain floors. Share your drawings or measurements on WhatsApp and we will give a clear quote.
For floors and walls we normally quote per sq ft, because it gives you a fixed labour cost linked to the actual area. Skirting, staircase nosing and edge work are usually counted per running ft, and small repair jobs can be quoted per job. Daily wage (dihadi) works poorly for Italian marble because quality and speed both depend on the karigar. Share your drawings and we will tell you exactly what the rate covers for your site in Eastern West Khasi Hills.
Italian marble is costly and breaks or stains easily, so choose a contractor who has fixed imported marble before, not only Indian stone. Ask how they plan the slab layout and book-matching, which white base or adhesive they use, how they fill joints (epoxy or Tenax) and who supervises the site every day. Hemaram Kumawat has worked as an Italian marble fixing and fitting contractor since 2000 on bungalows, apartments and showrooms. Share your drawings and marble details on WhatsApp and we will explain the method and labour rate for your site in Eastern West Khasi Hills.
Most yellowing and dull patches come from grey cement, rusty or dirty water, or moisture moving through the bed into a porous light marble. We use white cement or white adhesive under light marbles, keep the base clean, check the backing mesh and resin, and allow proper curing before polishing. Good fixing prevents most of these problems.
We are fixing and finishing contractors, so the client usually buys the marble directly. We are happy to guide you on suitable varieties, help you check slabs for cracks, resin and shade before you finalise, and calculate quantities from your layout so you do not run short or overbuy on an expensive stone.
It can be used carefully. Walls and vanity tops in bathrooms work well when waterproofing, slopes and sealing are done properly, but wet shower floors need anti-skid treatment or a honed finish. In kitchens, Italian marble etches with lemon, vinegar and spills, so many clients prefer granite or quartz for the platform.
It depends on area, design and drying time. Fixing, curing, joint filling and polishing are separate stages and should not be rushed, because polishing too early on a wet bed can cause problems later. After the site visit, we share a realistic stage-wise timeline that fits your other construction work.
Yes. Alongside Rajasthan cities like Udaipur, Jaipur, Kishangarh, Jodhpur and Bikaner, our team works in Ahmedabad, Gurugram, Bhopal, Dehradun, Ludhiana, Ranchi and other places. For larger sites, we bring an experienced core team and can arrange skilled local labour for day-to-day work. Travel and stay for the team are planned and discussed openly as part of the quote.
Both are used to fill joints between marble slabs. Epoxy is a two-part filler that cures hard and resists water well, which suits floors and wet areas. Tenax is a stone adhesive and filler that is easy to tint and polish with the marble. We choose based on the stone colour, location and finish required.
Yes. We regularly correct faulty marble work such as uneven joints, lippage, hollow slabs, cracks and dull or stained polish. Depending on the problem, we grind and re-polish, re-fill joints, or cut out and refit individual slabs. We first inspect the floor to see which fixes are possible without replacing good stone.
Ideally while plumbing, electrical and wall plaster are being finalised, before the flooring stage begins. That gives time to plan floor levels, step heights, skirting and door clearances, and to inspect your marble before fixing. Calling early avoids last-minute cutting and wastage of costly imported slabs.
Clean with a soft mop and plain water or a pH-neutral stone cleaner; avoid acid, phenyl, lemon and harsh floor cleaners because they etch the polish. Wipe tea, oil and turmeric spills quickly, use felt pads under furniture and doormats at entrances to keep grit off the floor. A sealer after polishing helps resist stains, and a light machine re-polish every few years brings back the shine. We can guide you on this at handover.
