Good looking floor rainsco.
How much does that solnhofner cost which was in herribone pattern in photo per sq mt.itbused to be very good value for money.
I have fixed Irish blue limestone which I think was from Carlow one time over in s.ireland.
I will make a couple of calls to someone I know tomorrow row.
What size format,finish and quantity are you looking at
hi jonny,
the herribone pattern 20cmx40cm costs about 40euro + tax. the 20cm, 25cm and 30cm pattern in diffrent lenghts costs about 50euro + tax.. thats the price my customers payed direct from quarry.
for the bathroom i looked for a floor and wall in 40 wide and free length or maby 80x80cm floor. i have to see we are at the beginning from the planing. we need a 13cm tranche ca. 250 x 60 for a double washing basin and a 3 or 4cm slab for a big snail shower and a seatbank.
my customers want a color like basaltina but its difficult to get affordable tranches. so at the moment we are searching for a etna basalt. any kind of blue stone has to be smoothed about C60 because otherwise it is to dark for the customers. serena is nice but it is a very soft sandstone. so at the moment i´m searching for any kind of stone in concrete optik. thats not easy. today i sanded nero assoluto with C80. its ok but i hope we get some affordable etna basalt.
This is a job we done about 22 years ago, pics taken on a old camera. It took just under 2 weeks to set out, every wall was gridded out and every tile was fixed individually/no serration. I've got a couple more pics in loft so will put on the next couple of days. Thought you might like to see them.
Some 40m2 Verona travertine opus pattern from Turkey. I've got to go back and do the kitchen splashback next week. Will post rest of pics with kitchen in etc
600x400 travertine bathroom finished yesterday. Thanks to the guys on the stone forum regarding what sealer to use. Opted for Ltp colour enhancer and stainstop. Customer initially wanted a polished look but advised against and they are thrilled with the results. Will hopefully be able to get back once finished.
Setting out vertically was dictated by the customers insistence on the position of the mosaics leaving small cuts top and bottom. I advised against trim around the window and butt jointed the tiles, filled with grout and took the edge off by hand with sandpaper.
Not the most experienced with Travertine so all comments welcome.
