MARBLE FLOORS

Marble is a beautiful and attractive stone. It is used to make countertops, mantles and table tops but especially flooring tiles.

The quality and finish of marble is very high and due to the myriad of different natural patterns of veins running through the stone. These naturally occurring variations in marble contribute to its distinctive appeal. Polishing achieves a patina that further enhances the colours of all the trace elements. It works especially well in the classic contrast of black and white tiling.

Marble flooring is particularly popular in warm climates where their cooling effect is not only pleasant on the feet but also serves to maintain the coolness in ones home.

Marble floor tiling is known as an elegant and all natural product which adds beauty and significant value to a home. The slipperiness depends on the surface texture. For flooring, it is advisable to opt for a honed finish which obviously offers a better grip than high polish.
