Technical and manufacturing guides for marble inlay — tolerances, waterjet cutting, installation, specifications and pricing. Written for architects, designers and contractors who need numbers, not adjectives: how ±0.1mm is held across a whole figure, how floors are installed over underfloor heating, and how a composition is set out so it fits first time.
These guides are written for the people who have to build the floor: how tolerances are held across a whole figure, how a floor is set out so it fits first time, how it is installed over underfloor heating, and how movement, drainage and finishes are planned into the cut file. They are the same points we confirm in writing on every commission.
Topics include setting-out and cut plans, substrate requirements, movement joints, wet-zone detailing, and the cost drivers behind a bespoke inlay commission. Start with the specification guide, read what drives cost, see inlay vs tile, or request a quote.
