Marble And Marble LTD – natural stone specialists

At Marble and Marble we separate our edge details into 2 grades. Standard edges are simple straight polishes, bevels and curves. These edges can be in ¾” thickness or laminated to be 1 ½”.

We strongly recommend kitchens to be done with an 1 ½” laminated edge to give the material a more completed look. Vanities, and table tops can be done with ¾” thickness or even a heavier 1 ½” laminated edge.

All About The Details

Edges complete the look of natural stone and can drastically change the appearance of the finished product. It must be noted that the composition of certain stones may restrict us from using elaborate edges. If this is the case, we will notify you of any concerns that we may have.

STEP 4

Production

If slabs were tagged at a supplier, they will be delivered to Marble and Marble Ltd.
We offer Cut-Previews for stones that have a lot of movement with veining and colour patterns. We take photos of your slabs and plan where pieces will be cut. This allows you to work with us to design exactly where each part of the slab will appear on your finished surface.
Our CNC machines are programmed to cut exactly to your planned designs.
The edge finishes are left to our talented team of stone artisans who work to customize the final details that are beyond the scope of machines.

Step 5

Pick-Up or Installation

Once your job is complete a representative from Marble and Marble Ltd. will contact you to come pick up your finished pieces, or schedule an install appointment.

For Installs:

Someone must be on site for the install appointment.
Installations normally takes a few hours, however some jobs may take longer.
We recommend removing items from cupboards before the appointment to avoid dust during the install.
When the material is installed and cleaned our installers will apply a penetrating sealer to the surface.
At this time the install is complete and installers will collect final payment.

For the install we require:

Sinks, faucets, fixtures, appliances to be on site.
Running water and electricity.

STEP 6

Post Installation

Do NOT: touch the stone, install any plumbing, faucets, cook tops, top-mount sinks or tubs for a full 24 hours post installation.
If you have any concerns contact us immediately before you make any further installations (ie. gas, plumbing, cook tops, sinks etc.)
We want to be certain you’re 100% satisfied. We invite you to contact us with any questions or concerns through the lifetime of your natural stone. The best compliment is a referral to family and friends. Enjoy!
