01 Is marble a natural stone? Yes. Marble is a natural stone extracted in blocks and processed into slabs or custom-sized products.Veining, tone and mineral distribution can vary from slab to slab. These differences are part of its natural character.
02 Which surface type should I choose? The right choice depends on the usage area, expectation, maintenance habits and design language.Choose marble or quartzite for natural veining,granite for a strong mineral look,quartz for controlled patterns,porcelain for slim and modern surfaces.
03 What is the difference between quartz and quartzite? Quartzite is a natural stone. Quartz countertops are engineered surfaces made by combining quartz minerals with binders and pigments.Although the names are similar, their structure, technical properties and care requirements differ.
04 Are color and vein differences normal in natural stone? Yes. In natural stones such as marble, granite, quartzite and onyx, veining, tone and mineral distribution can vary between slabs.For large surfaces, reviewing the actual slab before production is recommended.
05 Can marble be used for kitchen countertops? Marble can be used for kitchen countertops. Since it is natural and porous, it should be used carefully against acidic substances, colored liquids and scratches.Spills should be cleaned quickly and cutting directly on the surface should be avoided.
06 How are sink and hob cut-outs prepared? Cut-outs are prepared according to the technical dimensions of the selected products. Cutting before model confirmation may cause size mismatches.Sink type, tap hole, filter tap and accessories should be confirmed before production.
07 Can countertop joints be completely invisible? Joint visibility depends on stone color, veining, dimensions, joint location and adhesive color.Correct equipment and matching filler reduce visibility, but the joint between two pieces cannot always be completely eliminated.
08 What are the advantages of porcelain countertops? Porcelain surfaces stand out with slim structure, large formats, modern appearance and low water absorption.Cutting and installation must be done with equipment suitable for the product thickness and technical properties.
09 When should kitchen countertop measurements be taken? The most accurate measurement is taken after base cabinets are installed, fixed and leveled.Sink, hob, tap and built-in appliance models should also be confirmed at this stage.
10 What information is needed for a quote? For an approximate quote, share dimensions, preferred product or color, project location and required details.Architectural drawings, sketches, site photos, sink and hob models speed up the process.
11 Can custom sizes and designs be produced? If material and slab dimensions are suitable, custom countertops, tables, counters, steps, sinks and decorative surfaces can be produced.Stone thickness, support system, edge profile and usage must be evaluated with the design.
12 Can vein continuity be achieved? With suitable slab selection and cutting layout, vein continuity can largely be achieved.For islands, wall cladding and large tables, a pre-production layout plan is recommended.
13 Which natural stones are suitable for outdoor use? For outdoor use, stone type, water absorption, climate, finish, thickness and drainage should be evaluated together.In wet or slippery areas, textured finishes are preferred over polished surfaces.
14 Which stone should be used for stairs and steps? Traffic intensity, indoor/outdoor location, step size and slip risk determine the right choice.For outdoor steps, drainage, surface texture and edge details are especially important.
15 Where can onyx be used? Onyx can be used for decorative walls, reception areas, counters and backlit designs thanks to its translucency and strong veining.Because it is more delicate, support and installation details should be planned carefully.
16 Which stones are used for memorial applications? Marble and granite are commonly used for memorial applications. Outdoor conditions, color, cleaning, lettering and design should be considered.For long-lasting results, base preparation, installation method and drainage must also be planned correctly.
17 How should marble and natural stone be cleaned? For daily cleaning, use a soft cloth, warm water and neutral cleaners suitable for natural stone.Wire sponges, abrasive powders and hard tools that may scratch the surface should be avoided.
18 Can vinegar or lemon be used on marble? No. Vinegar, lemon and other acidic products can dull or etch calcium-based stones such as marble.The cleaning product must be compatible with the stone type and finish.
19 Can hot pans be placed or cutting be done on the countertop? Even if the stone resists heat, placing hot pans directly on the surface is not recommended.Cutting directly may create fine scratches. Use trivets and cutting boards.
20 How are stains removed from natural stone? The cleaning method depends on whether the stain comes from oil, coffee, rust, ink or chemicals.Wrong chemicals can spread the stain or damage the surface. Professional support is recommended for severe stains.
21 How are marble and countertop prices determined? Price is not based only on square meters. Product, slab size, thickness, edge profile, cut-outs, backsplash, transport and installation affect the total cost.Final pricing requires confirmed measurements and details.
22 How long do production and installation take? Timing depends on stock, dimensions, number of cut-outs, edge details and production schedule.After product and final measurements are approved, an estimated date is shared.
23 How should the area be prepared before installation? Base cabinets should be fixed and leveled, access should be clear and product models should be available.Electricity, water and gas connections must be made safe by qualified specialists.
24 Can I order directly online? Standard products can be ordered via cart, while custom-size or application-based products are evaluated through the quote basket.Orders requiring cutting, measurement or installation may need technical confirmation before payment.
