Our Custom Marble Design Options
Pattern and Layout Choices
You can choose from many marble tile patterns to create the right look in your home or business. Popular layouts include:
- Herringbone: Tiles arranged in a zig-zag pattern for a modern, dynamic feel.
- Basket Weave: Tiles laid in pairs that cross at right angles, giving a classic, detailed effect.
- Straight Set: Tiles aligned evenly in rows and columns for a clean, simple look.
- Diagonal: Tiles placed at a 45-degree angle to the walls, making rooms feel larger.
We also offer mix-and-match with different marble colors or sizes to add contrast or a unique design. Our team guides you through sampling layouts so you can see what works best before installation.
Edge Profiles and Finishes
The edges of your marble tiles affect both safety and style. We provide several edge profile options, such as:
- Beveled: Slightly angled edges to create a subtle frame around each tile.
- Bullnose: Rounded edges for a smooth, finished look, often used on steps or borders.
- Straight: Clean, sharp edges for a modern aesthetic.
- Ogee: Decorative curved edges for a more traditional or ornate appearance.
Finishing options include polished, honed, or tumbled surfaces. Polished finishes give a shiny, reflective surface, while honed finishes are matte and less slippery.
Tumbled finishes create a textured, aged look. We help you pick the right edge and finish based on your design goals and where the floor will be used.

Importance of Professional Marble Floor Installation
Marble is a natural stone that is both beautiful and delicate. Installing it yourself can lead to cracks, uneven surfaces, or dull finishes. We use special tools and techniques designed for marble, which reduce the risk of damage.
Professional installation also means proper sealing and polishing. These steps protect the stone from stains and wear over time. We make sure your marble floor is installed on a clean, level surface to avoid future problems like shifting or cracking.
Common Types of Marble Flooring
Marble comes in many styles, colors, and textures to match different tastes and spaces. The most popular types include:
- Carrara Marble: Known for its white to gray background with soft veining.
- Calacatta Marble: A high-end choice featuring bold, dramatic veins on a bright white base.
- Statuario Marble: A mix of Carrara and Calacatta, valued for its striking patterns.
- Emperador Marble: Dark brown with light veins, often used for a warmer look.
- Crema Marfil Marble: Beige tones with soft veining, common in both traditional and modern designs.
We help you select the right type based on your style and how much traffic the floor will get.
