III. Sorting stone tiles before installation
Two very important steps have to be taken before installing the material:
Check Your Delivery: Verify that the correct material was delivered. Once the material is installed, it is too late to make any changes.
Sorting the Material for the Job: The success of a great marble job is the mixing and matching of the stone before installation. This step will always yield to a uniform homogeneous installation.
For proper stone placement or mixture, we recommend the following guidelines:
Divide the area of installation into separate flat areas and allocate enough material for each area including some waste.
If the material to be installed is tiles, all the boxes should be open and the tiles should be taken from all the boxes randomly. In this way, the installation will be uniform and the material will look homogeneous. Remember that stone cannot be inspected or appreciated by looking at just one tile. The only way to check stone is by looking at several tiles, mixing them and laying them flat together in order to appreciate the stone's quality and color.
*The direction of the vein should be considered before starting installation.
*If there is not enough material to finish a complete section, the installation should not be started because it will be very likely that the additional material will have a different tone. |
