Basketweave, Pinwheel, and Herringbone are three geometric patterns used for installing stone and tile in its many applications. Answer these 10 questions to define your plan for stone or tile use for your project. 

  1. Which area or room are you planning? Not all materials will work on all surfaces; verify your choice with a sample. Measure the surfaces to be used. The Stone & Tile Studio installer you choose will want to verify dimensions and may have questions best described through pictures on your phone. You can arrange for an at-home consultation and assessment appointment.
  2. Who installs the tile? When you buy the tile, you can arrange for installation with the seller, subcontract a tradesperson, or do it yourself if you have the skills. 
  3. Who prepares the surfaces for mating? Be clear with any installer about the scope of the work and its responsibilities.
  4. Who buys the materials? If you are subcontracting, be clear about who buys what materials, tools, and consumables such as PPE, masking, and cleaning supplies.
  5. How long will the room be out of use during the change? Your installation quote should have a completion date and time on it. 
  6. Who will need access and when? Define the hours that they will work each day, when they arrive, break, lunch, etc. This is on your property. Clarity is easy to ask for.
  7. Are there warranties on the material or installation? Obtain all documentation for your records in the event there is an issue. Are you covered to do this on your own?
  8. Who is the foreman? What is their contact number? What is their app ID? Who is their 2nd? There is always an unknown event that can happen. Contact information is important to resolve any small issue before things are set.
  9. What are the curing instructions? How far do we have to stay and for how long? Does it need heat or ventilation for better curing? Share this information with everyone in the home.
  10. Do you need a building permit? Can the installer see to it? Call your municipality planning office and verify the required documents and application.

Ceiling Tiles, Accent Walls, Entrances, Counters or Table Tops, Pathways, Fireplace Surrounds, or Exterior Framing in Sandstone, Onyx, Marble, Quartzite, Travertine, or Granite will create timeless and enduring style and function.
