What is the complete cost estimation of marbles and tiles for 1000 square feet slab area and 1500 square feet slab area? Comparison of total cost for marbles and tiles?
In this post I will explain you the complete cost estimation of marbles and tiles for the construction of building under 1000sft area. Cost estimation is the process or method of determining the total budget (money) required to make the particular structure.
The complete detailed cost estimation of 3BHK building is estimated in my previous post click here to read.
The complete cost estimation of 1000sft slab area is also explained in my previous post click here to read.
Marbles
The marble is the rock of metamorphic type. Basically it is available in various color combinations, from theses variations the white color types are frequently used to lay the floors. The Taj Mahal is completely made with the marbles is the one of the main example in marble construction. Now a day’s the marbles are used in building construction for better appearance and for better long life of the floors. The cost of the marbles varies in between 60 Indian rupees per square feet to 140 Indian rupees per square feet area. The cost of the marbles is depends upon the quality and composition of rock. For the Italian marbles the cost of the marble per square feet starts at 350 Indian rupees.
Tiles
Tiles are usually thin square or rectangular made with ceramic, clay, and metal or even glass material. The tiles are also used in building construction for making the floors. The tiles are usually used when the complete loading is less in the slab or floor. Depending upon the requirements of the client or customer the average cost of tiles are varies in between 25 Indian rupees to 250 Indian rupees. The cost required to building the floor with tiles will be less when we compared with marbles in building construction.
The difference between marbles and tiles square feet area
The following table shows the major differences between the marbles and tiles used in building construction
| S. No | Marbles | Tiles |
| 1 | The marbles are made with metamorphic rock type. | The tiles are made with ceramic, clay, and metal or glass |
| 2 | The project cost is high if we construct the building with marbles as the flooring materials. | The project cost is less if we construct the building with tiles as the flooring material. |
| 3 | The marble floor requires experienced worker while installation process | The tiles floor is easy to install and handle |
| 4 | Maintenance is high and it is not easy to repair | Less maintenance and easily repairable |
| 5 | The marble floor is scratch resistant and fire resistance because it is made with rock. | Some of the tiles are scratch resistant and fire resistant but not all the tiles in building design |
| 6 | Require high labor while installation process | Requires less labor in installation process |
| 7 | Time taking for making marble floor is high | Time taking for tiles floor is less in flooring process |
Cost estimation of marbles and tiles for 1000 square feet slab area
Marble floor 1000 square feet area
Let us consider a slab which is having 1000 sft area
For a good quality materials cost per sft for marble material is averagely 80 India rupees and for the laying the cost is approximately 25 Indian Rupees required to make the floor with marbles.
So the final cost is approximately = Marbles cost + Laying cost
= 80X1000+25X1000
=80000+25000
=105000 Indian Rupees.
Tiles floor for 1000 square feet area
Let us consider a slab which is having 1000 sft area
For a good quality materials cost per sft for tiles material is averagely 50 India rupees and for the laying the cost is approximately 30 Indian Rupees required to make the floor with marbles.
So the final cost is approximately = Tiles cost + Laying cost
= 50X1000+30X1000
=50000+30000
=80000 Indian Rupees.
Cost estimation of marbles and tiles for 1500 sft slab area
Marble floor 1500 square feet area
Let us consider a slab which is having 1500 sft area
For a good quality materials cost per sft for marble material is averagely 80 India rupees and for the laying the cost is approximately 25 Indian Rupees required to make the floor with marbles.
So the final cost is approximately = Marbles cost + Laying cost
= 80X1500+25X1500
=120000+37500
=157500 Indian Rupees.
Tiles floor for 1500 square feet area
Let us consider a slab which is having 1500 sft area
For a good quality materials cost per sft for tiles material is averagely 50 India rupees and for the laying the cost is approximately 30 Indian Rupees required to make the floor with marbles.
So the final cost is approximately = Tiles cost + Laying cost
= 50X1500+30X1500
=75000+45000
=120000 Indian Rupees.
Comparison of cost for marbles and tiles 1000 square feet and 1500 square feet
The following table shows the final cost comparison of marbles and tiles under 1000sft and 1500sft slab area.
| S. No | Material Type | 1000 square feet area | 1500 square feet area |
| 1 | Marbles | 105000 Indian Rupees. | 157500 Indian Rupees. |
| 2 | Tiles | 80000 Indian Rupees. | 120000 Indian Rupees. |
For the marbles less than 1000 sft floor area it is requires 105000 Indian Rupees, and for tiles under 1000 sft floor area it is requires 80000 Indian Rupees.
For the marbles under 1500 sft floor area it is requires 157500 Indian Rupees, and for tiles under 1000 sft floor area it is requires 120000 Indian Rupees.
Conclusions of cost estimation of marbles and tiles for 1000 square feet slab area and 1500 square feet slab area?
Well now the above explained concepts are related to the cost estimation of marbles and tiles for 1000 sft and 1500 sft area
The cost required for the marbles and tiles is depends upon the type of marble or tiles and quality of material. Basically for the marbles less than 1000 sft floor area it is requires 105000 Indian Rupees, and for tiles under 1000 sft floor area it is requires 80000 Indian Rupees.
For the marbles under 1500 sft floor area it is requires 157500 Indian Rupees, and for tiles under 1000 sft floor area it is requires 120000 Indian Rupees.
