Our Process
The marble kitchen countertop process involves a multi-step cycle of design, fabrication, and installation, beginning with a consultation and the selection of a marble slab. Next, a precise template is created for fabrication, which involves cutting, shaping, and polishing the stone to the exact specifications. The final installation includes a dry fit to ensure proper alignment, followed by securing the countertop in place and installing the sink, backsplash, and any other fixtures.
Design and consultation
-
Initial consultation: The process begins with a discussion to understand your needs, preferences, and aesthetic goals.
-
Material selection: You will choose from different marble slabs, considering factors like color, pattern, and consistency.
-
Precise measurement and templating: A professional creates a detailed template of your countertop area, including all curves, corners, and cutouts for sinks and faucets, to ensure a perfect fit.
-
Fabrication plan: Based on the template and design choices, a fabrication plan is created, which can be customized for a more complex or unique look.
Fabrication
-
Cutting the marble: The marble slab is precisely cut to match the template using specialized tools like a table saw with a laser guide or a CNC machine.
-
Edge profiling: The edges of the countertop are shaped and finished according to your chosen design.
-
Polishing and finishing: The surface is polished to a desired finish, whether it's a high gloss or a more matte texture.
Installation
-
The dry fit: The fabricated pieces are brought to your kitchen for a "dry fit" to ensure they fit perfectly before any adhesive is applied.
-
Securing the countertop: The countertop is leveled and secured to the cabinets using epoxy or silicone adhesive.
-
Seam work: If there are multiple pieces, the seams are cleaned with acetone, taped off, and then a colored epoxy is applied and clamped tightly together.
-
Final touches: The sink is installed, sealed, and the faucet holes are drilled. The backsplash is then installed, and any necessary caulking is applied.
Marble Countertop Key Factors
When considering a kitchen marble countertop, several key factors should be taken into account:
-
Marble Type and Grade: The type of marble, such as Carrara or Calacatta, affects the cost and aesthetic appeal. Exotic varieties like Calacatta and Statuario are more expensive due to their unique veining and coloration.
-
Size and Thickness: Larger and thicker slabs are more expensive and offer better durability. Thinner countertops may require additional support to ensure stability.
-
Transportation and Location: The cost of transporting marble, especially imported varieties, can significantly add to the overall expense.
-
Edge Treatments and Fabrication: Custom edges and finishes increase the countertop’s aesthetic appeal but also the price, reflecting the craftsmanship required.
-
Installation Complexity: The more complex the installation, often due to kitchen layout and slab size, the higher the labor costs.
-
Additional Costs: Consider potential extra expenses such as reinforcing cabinetry to support heavier slabs.

Kitchen Marble Countertop FAQs
Installation
What is the best way to measure for kitchen marble countertops? Accurate measurements are crucial. Measure the length and width of the countertop area carefully and account for the sink area and other fixtures. Use a ruler and carpenter's square to ensure alignment.
Cleaning
How often should I seal my marble countertops? It is recommended to seal your marble countertops every 6 to 12 months, depending on usage and the porosity of the stone.
How do I choose the right marble slab? Consider factors such as veining, color consistency, and overall durability. Dark marbles like Nero Marquina may be harder to see stains, while intricate veining can disguise wear.
What should I do if I spill something acidic on my marble? Immediately blot the spill with a soft cloth and use a marble-safe stain remover or a homemade poultice to address the stain.
How do I prepare the surface for marble installation? Ensure the cabinet or base is level and use wood shims to balance any uneven surfaces. Clean the area to remove dust and debris before applying adhesive.
Can I use a regular cleaning product on my marble? Avoid using vinegar, lemon juice, or harsh chemicals as these can etch the marble surface.
What is the best way to secure and seal marble countertops? Use thin-set mortar or a strong adhesive evenly over the base, gently place the marble slab on top, and use a rubber mallet to ensure it sits firmly. Apply silicone caulk along the edges and fill seams with epoxy resin for a smooth finish.
What to Expect During Marble Countertop Installation A professional marble countertop installation consists of three primary stages: •Templating: A very precise digital template is made for your space. •Fabrication: The marble slab is cut, polished, and finished to the requirements of your design. •Installation: The experts position and fasten the countertops, seal the surface, and ensure everything fits correctly.
How can I prevent scratches on my polished marble? Use coasters and trivets to protect the surface from hot pots and beverages, and avoid placing hot pots directly on the marble.
What should I avoid cleaning with? Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or acidic products like vinegar or ammonia. Even mild dish soap can cause harm over time.
