Granite is much harder than marble; it wears slowly, but restoring its original shine once it has worn takes more effort. The abrasives used for marble do not work on granite. In Alanya, we grind and polish granite in hotel lobbies, residential complex entrances, staircases and outdoor cladding using metal- and resin-bonded diamonds made specifically for granite.
What does our granite grinding service include?
Granite is processed in stages, as marble is, but each stage takes longer and products suited to granite are used for polishing. Our work includes:
- Removing dullness on walkways
- Removing scratches and scuff marks
- Leveling slab joints
- Step-by-step polishing
- Cleaning and renewing grout joints
- Non-slip surface outdoors (while preserving the flamed look)
- Stain protection with impregnation
- Final cleaning after the job
Areas where we do granite grinding
Granite is used both indoors and outdoors, especially in high-traffic places. The main places we work in are:
- Hotel lobbies and reception areas
- Residential complex and apartment building entrances
- Stairs and landings
- Store and bank floors
- Kitchen and bathroom countertops
- Outdoor steps
- Elevator lobbies
- Sidewalks and ramps
How do we work?
- Inspection: We assess the type of granite, whether the surface is polished or flamed, and the extent of wear on site.
- Protection: We cover the surrounding glass, wood and metal surfaces.
- Grinding: We remove scratches and the worn layer with metal-bond diamonds.
- Polishing: We refine the surface step by step with resin diamonds and bring out the granite's natural shine.
- Protection: If requested, we apply an impregnating sealer.
- Handover: We clean the area and check the result together with you.
Granite's shine comes from honing and polishing, not from wax or sealant
Granite does not hold a polish; shine-enhancing products applied on top wear off quickly and look like stains. Lasting shine is achieved by refining the surface with diamond abrasives.
- Deep, sharp reflection on dark granites
- Vivid pattern on light granites
- No peeling, since there is no coating on top
- Only water and a neutral detergent are needed for daily cleaning
Where does granite wear out in Alanya?
Granite is durable, but even it dulls with heavy use.
- Hotel and residential complex entrances: Gritty shoes and suitcase wheels dull the walkway.
- Exterior steps: Sun, rain and salty air fade the surface.
- Kitchen countertops: Oil and acidic liquids leave marks on unprotected granite.
State-of-the-art devices and equipment
In granite grinding work in Alanya, the first thing that determines the quality of the job on granite floors, stairs, countertops and outdoor areas is the right equipment. We choose the device and material according to the type of surface and the place where the work is carried out; we do not use products that harm human or environmental health.
- Metal- and resin-bonded diamond abrasives suited to the hardness of granite
- High-speed, heavy-body floor grinding machines
- Wet vacuum machines that instantly pick up dirty water
- Polishing compounds and impregnating materials made specifically for granite
When working with water, we vacuum up the dirty water produced at the same time; areas that are not being worked on can continue to be used while the job is in progress. When the job is finished, we also explain how to clean and maintain the surface day to day.
World-class quality
No matter how good the machine and the materials are, it is the craftsman's hand that produces a clean, lasting surface. Granite is much harder than marble; the methods and crystallization polish used on marble do not work on granite, so the sequence of abrasives is determined by the type of granite.
For years, our team has been carrying out granite grinding and polishing work in hotels, housing complexes, villas and commercial premises across all districts, especially Alanya city center, Mahmutlar, Kestel, Oba, Tosmur, Cikcilli, Avsallar, Türkler, Konaklı and Okurcalar. On every job, we plan the steps according to the condition of the surface and show the same care at every stage.
Pricing and quotes
Granite polishing is priced per square meter; because granite is a hard stone, it takes longer than marble. We give the final price after seeing the job on site; the inspection is free. The price depends on:
- Size of the area
- Type of granite
- Degree of scratches and dullness
- Desired level of shine
- Working hours (such as night work)
