Key Features

- Finish: Polished surface to enhance natural luster and resist staining.

Installation Guidelines
Pre-Installation Preparation
- Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, and level. Use a spirit level to check, and adjust with shims if needed.
- Acclimate marble tiles to room temperature for 24 hours before installation.
- Plan the layout to minimize cuts and align patterns, especially around fireplace edges.
Adhesive Application
- Use a high-quality, flexible thin-set mortar designed for natural stone. Avoid mastics or adhesives with high moisture content.
- Apply mortar with a notched trowel, working in small sections to prevent premature drying.
- Press each tile firmly into place, using a rubber mallet to level and ensure even adhesion.
Cutting and Fitting
- For precise cuts around fireplace openings, use a wet saw with a diamond blade rated for marble.
- Measure twice, cut once, leaving a 1/8-inch gap for expansion and grout.
- Smooth cut edges with fine-grit sandpaper or a stone file to prevent sharp edges.
Grouting and Sealing
- Allow mortar to cure for 24 hours before grouting. Use a grout suitable for natural stone (sanded or unsanded based on joint width).
- Apply grout with a float, then wipe excess with a damp sponge. Let dry completely.
- Seal the marble with a penetrating sealer designed for porous stone to protect against stains and moisture. Reapply every 6-12 months.
Care and Maintenance
- Daily Cleaning: Use a pH-neutral stone cleaner and a soft cloth or mop. Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners.
- Stain Prevention: Wipe spills immediately, especially acidic liquids like wine or citrus.
- Periodic Sealing: Reapply sealer annually to maintain stain resistance and luster.
- Avoid Heavy Loads: Wait 48 hours after installation before placing heavy furniture or walking on the surface.
Safety and Handling
- Lifting: Use two people per tile due to weight and fragility. Always lift with proper technique to avoid injury.
- Cutting: Wear safety goggles, gloves, and a dust mask when cutting marble.
- Work Area: Ensure good ventilation when using adhesives, grouts, and sealers. Use knee pads for comfort during installation.
