Frequently Asked Questions
How do natural marble tiles vary in colour and pattern?
Natural marble is a metamorphic stone formed over millions of years, so every tile carries unique veining, fossil traces, and colour shifts that no two tiles share exactly. Salt Rock Marquina shows dramatic white veining on a deep black background, while Musk and Namaste mosaics blend warm cream and beige tones with softer movement. This natural variation is part of marble's appeal, not a defect. We recommend ordering all your tiles from the same batch and laying out a few boxes before fixing to balance tone and pattern across the floor or wall.
Do marble tiles need sealing?
Yes. Natural marble is calcium carbonate and is porous, which makes it vulnerable to staining from oil, wine, coffee, and acidic spills if left untreated. Apply a penetrating impregnating sealer at install, and refresh every 12 to 24 months in wet areas. Acidic cleaners like vinegar, lemon juice, and standard bathroom limescale removers will etch and dull the surface even after sealing, so always use a pH neutral, marble-safe cleaner. In showers, sealing is essential to prevent water ingress and mineral build-up within the stone.
Are marble mosaics suitable for shower floors?
Yes, the Salt Rock marble mosaic ranges are well suited to shower floor installations because the smaller chip format creates many grout joints, which provide grip underfoot when wet. Always confirm the slip rating of the specific mosaic and seal both the marble and the grout joints after install. Avoid heavily polished marble for shower floors, as the surface becomes slippery when soapy. Honed or tumbled finishes work better in wet zones. The mosaic format also moulds easily to a fall toward the drain, which is harder to achieve with large format tiles.
How do I clean marble tiles in a bathroom?
Sweep or dust mop the floor first to lift loose debris that could scratch the surface during wet cleaning. Use a pH neutral marble-safe cleaner with warm water and a soft microfibre mop. Avoid vinegar, lemon, bleach, ammonia, and any acidic bathroom cleaner: these will etch the calcium carbonate and produce a dull, cloudy finish that needs professional restoration. Wipe up spills immediately. For shower walls, squeegee water off the marble after each use to slow mineral build-up. Reseal grout joints every 1 to 2 years in wet areas.
How much wastage should I allow when ordering marble mosaics?
Allow 15 percent over your measured area when ordering marble mosaic. Mosaic sheets are bonded onto a mesh backing and the individual chips can be hand-cut around drains, corners, and edges, but the cuts produce more offcut waste than a single large format tile would. Allowing 15 percent also gives you spare sheets for future repairs, which is critical because natural marble batches change over time and exact tone matches cannot be guaranteed from a future production run.
