Imported and local marble, supplied, fixed and polished

Marble remains the finish of choice for interiors in Pakistan because it is cool underfoot, takes a deep polish, and because it is available locally in Ziarat, Verona, Badal and many other varieties it is far more affordable here than imported stone alternatives.

We supply slabs and tiles, fix them, and do the grinding and polishing on site. The quality of a marble floor is decided almost entirely at the fixing and finishing stage: level bedding, tight joints, correct grouting and proper polishing.

Supplied to contractors and builders, or supplied and applied by our own teams with a written warranty.

Method

How It Is Applied

The sequence our teams follow, and the sequence we recommend to contractors buying the material from us.

Select

Slabs are selected for colour and vein consistency. Always view the actual lot before it is cut.

Prepare the base

The screed is checked for level and soundness before any stone is laid.

Fix

Slabs are bedded on cement mortar or adhesive, tapped to level, with joints kept tight and aligned.

Grout and cure

Joints are filled to match the stone and the floor is left to cure before grinding.

Grind and polish

Progressive grinding and polishing brings up the final shine, followed by sealing where specified.
