If you’re building or renovating a 2BHK or 3BHK home, one of the most common questions people ask is:
“How much marble will I need?”
Choosing marble is a premium and long-term decision. Whether you’re going for Italian marble, Indian marble, or Onyx, calculating the right quantity and cost helps you:
- Save money
- Avoid delays
- Minimize wastage
- Make the right selection for flooring, walls, or stairs
This blog is your complete and evergreen guide to calculating how much marble you’ll need for a 2BHK or 3BHK house in India — based on room sizes, layout, and application areas.
1. Understand How Marble is Measured
Marble is sold in:
- Square feet (sqft) – for flooring, wall cladding, stairs, etc.
- Square meter (sqm) – often used for exports and by architects (1 sqm = 10.76 sqft)
All calculations in this blog are in square feet for easy understanding.
2. Room-Wise Marble Area Calculator
Let’s break it down:
✅ For a Typical 2BHK Home (Approx 900–1100 sq ft carpet area)
| Area | Avg. Size (sqft) | Where Marble is Used |
|---|---|---|
| Living Room | 150–250 | Flooring |
| Dining Area | 60–100 | Flooring |
| Kitchen | 40–70 | Countertop + Flooring (optional) |
| Bedroom 1 (Master) | 100–140 | Flooring |
| Bedroom 2 | 90–120 | Flooring |
| Bathrooms (2) | 60–80 (total) | Walls + Flooring (optional) |
| Passage + Balcony | 50–100 | Flooring |
👉 Total Approx Marble Area (2BHK):
✅ 500 to 700 sq ft for standard flooring
✅ Up to 900 sq ft if you use marble in bathrooms/kitchen/balconies
✅ For a Typical 3BHK Home (Approx 1300–1600 sq ft carpet area)
| Area | Avg. Size (sqft) | Where Marble is Used |
|---|---|---|
| Living Room | 200–300 | Flooring |
| Dining Area | 80–120 | Flooring |
| Kitchen | 50–80 | Countertop + Flooring (optional) |
| Bedroom 1 (Master) | 120–160 | Flooring |
| Bedroom 2 | 110–130 | Flooring |
| Bedroom 3 | 90–120 | Flooring |
| Bathrooms (3) | 80–100 (total) | Walls + Flooring (optional) |
| Passage + Balcony | 70–120 | Flooring |
👉 Total Approx Marble Area (3BHK):
✅ 800 to 1100 sq ft for flooring
✅ Up to 1300 sq ft if you use marble in bathrooms and walls
3. Add Wastage and Margin
Always add 8–10% extra to cover:
- Cutting losses
- Slab mismatches
- Breakages during transport
✅ Wastage Formula:
Total Area × 1.10 = Total Marble Required
For example:
- 2BHK: 700 sqft × 1.10 = 770 sqft
- 3BHK: 1000 sqft × 1.10 = 1100 sqft
4. What Type of Marble Should You Use?
At RMS Stonex, we recommend:
| Application Area | Ideal Marble Type |
|---|---|
| Flooring | Statuario, Michelangelo, Vegas Gold, Katni |
| Walls | Onyx White, Onyx Green, Golden Portoro |
| Bathroom | Lasa White, Botticino Classico, Pietra Grey |
| Kitchen Counter | Granite, Quartz, or Marble (with sealing) |
