Installation Guide – 18″x18″ Calacatta Honed Marble Tile

Step 1: Surface Preparation – Level and Moisture-Ready

Ensure the substrate is flat, with no more than 1/8″ variation over 10 feet.
Use a self-leveling compound to correct uneven areas if needed.
Apply a waterproofing membrane in wet areas such as bathrooms or kitchens.
Verify the substrate is structurally sound, dry, and free from dust, oils, or debris.

Step 2: Layout Planning – Highlight the Marble

Establish centerlines and layout markers for even placement.
Dry-lay tiles to review veining direction and tone consistency.
Mix tiles from multiple boxes for a natural, balanced appearance.
Recommended grout spacing: 1/16″ to 1/8″ to accommodate beveled edges.

Step 3: Mortar Application – Strong Adhesion

Recommended Mortars:

Mapei Ultraflex LFT White
Laticrete 254 Platinum White
Ardex X77 White

Instructions:

Apply mortar with a 1/2″ square-notched trowel for full coverage.
Back-butter each tile to prevent hollow spots.
Set tiles while the mortar is fresh for optimal adhesion.

Step 4: Cutting & Fitting – Precision Matters

Use a wet saw with a continuous-rim diamond blade suitable for marble.
Smooth exposed cut edges to match the honed surface.
Dry-fit tiles to ensure proper alignment and spacing before final placement.

Step 5: Setting Tiles – Prevent Lippage

Utilize a tile leveling system to maintain a flat, uniform surface.
Apply consistent pressure and check alignment with a level frequently.
Remove excess thin-set from tile surfaces before it hardens.
Allow mortar to cure for 24 hours before grouting.

Step 6: Grouting & Sealing – Protect Your Investment

Pre-seal honed marble with a penetrating, marble-safe sealer before grouting.
Use non-sanded grout to protect the honed finish and beveled edges.
Grout diagonally with a rubber float and wipe joints immediately.
Buff off haze after 20–30 minutes using a soft microfiber cloth.
Re-seal tiles and grout after full cure (≈72 hours) for lasting protection.

Maintenance Tips – Preserve Elegance

Clean only with pH-neutral, marble-safe products.
Avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners that can damage the honed finish.
Wipe up spills promptly, especially oils or acidic liquids.
Reapply sealer every 6–12 months depending on traffic and exposure.

Shipping & Packaging

Each 18″x18″ honed Calacatta tile is cushioned with protective edge spacers and packed securely.
Inspect tiles before installation to confirm consistency in veining, tone, and finish.

Important Notes

Calacatta marble is a natural stone with inherent variation in color and veining.
