Installation Guide – Calacatta White 1″x4″ Herringbone Honed Marble Mosaic Tile

Material Overview

Made from natural Calacatta white marble with soft gray veining and a honed (matte) surface.
Composed of 1″x4″ linear strips arranged in a herringbone pattern on mesh sheets (~12″x12″; some lots may be paper-faced).
Suitable for walls, backsplashes, shower surrounds, and light-traffic residential flooring. Multiple grout lines offer better traction compared to large-format tiles.

Step 1: Prepare the Surface

Ensure the substrate is clean, dry, rigid, and flat (≤1/8″ over 10′; ideally ≤1/16″ for long, narrow strips). Patch or skim coat as necessary.
Acceptable substrates: cement backer board, properly cured concrete, or a mortar bed meeting ANSI standards.
For wet areas: apply an ANSI A118.10 waterproof membrane. Shower floors should slope 1/4″ per foot toward the drain.
Always use white-setting materials under light marble to prevent shadowing or discoloration.

Step 2: Dry Layout & Planning

Mix sheets from multiple boxes to balance natural variations in color and veining.
Snap level and plumb reference lines to maintain the correct herringbone angle.
Stagger sheet seams to hide mesh edges and trim for tight interlock.
Pre-plan cuts around edges, corners, and fixtures to avoid narrow slivers and maintain pattern continuity.

Step 3: Apply Adhesive

Recommended Material:

White, polymer-modified thin-set mortar for natural stone (ANSI A118.4/A118.15). Avoid premixed mastics, especially in wet areas.

Application Technique:

Use a 3/16″ V-notch or 1/4″x3/16″ V-notch trowel.
Press mortar into the substrate with the flat side, comb in one direction, then lightly flatten ridges.
Work in sections small enough to tile within 10–15 minutes before the mortar skins.

Step 4: Setting the Sheets

Align the first sheet to your reference lines and press in using a rubber float or beating block for full contact.
Use wedge spacers as needed to maintain straight linear joints and consistent herringbone angles.
Back-butter strips if mesh irregularities cause lippage; adjust immediately if necessary.
Remove excess mortar from joints and faces with a barely damp sponge.
For paper-faced sheets: set sheets, beat in lightly, wet paper after initial grab (≈10–20 min), remove paper, and true up joints before mortar fully sets.

Step 5: Cutting & Detailing

Use a wet saw with a continuous-rim diamond blade; apply painter’s tape on cut lines to reduce chipping.
For small trims, use mosaic nippers sparingly and smooth edges with a rubbing stone.
Finish exposed edges with stone trims, metal profiles, or matching moldings.

Step 6: Grouting (Honed Marble)

Allow thin-set to cure (typically 24 hours).
Joints ≤1/8″: use unsanded grout. For 1/8″–3/16″: use fine-aggregate, marble-safe grout (test first for abrasion).
Optionally, apply grout release or pre-seal to prevent staining; choose light neutral colors for a soft, elegant look.
Pack grout diagonally and clean with minimal water to avoid washout or shading.

Step 7: Sealing

After grout cures (≈72 hours), apply a penetrating, breathable sealer suitable for marble and grout to protect the surface while maintaining the honed finish.
Reapply periodically depending on exposure (typically every 1–2 years in wet or high-traffic areas).

Maintenance Tips

Clean with pH-neutral, non-abrasive stone cleaners. Avoid acids, vinegar, bleach, and abrasive pads, as marble can etch.
In showers, squeegee or wipe surfaces dry after use to reduce mineral deposits. Use marble-safe scale removers if necessary.

Movement Joints

Respect structural/expansion joints and provide soft joints as per TCNA EJ171 at perimeters and changes of plane.
Use 100% stone-safe silicone in corners and where tile meets other materials.

Important Notes & Disclaimer

Natural Calacatta varies in color and veining; always dry-lay and blend sheets before installation.
Flat, level substrates are critical for long, thin strips.
Avoid glossy coatings unless a polished look is desired—they may alter the honed appearance.
Stonemarket USA is not responsible for substrate issues or improper installation. Professional installation is strongly recommended.
