Marble Tile Floors

Marble tile floors make the most elegant statement of any flooring available tody. From the honed and filled travertine with it's subtle veining and natural earthtones to the more formal and colorful varieties, there is certainly no shortage when it comes to selection. Most if not all marble sold in this country is imported from places such as Italy or Spain.

Marble is the perfect choice for that formal master bath shower floor and wall, as well any other area in your home where you want to make a formal and dramatic statement. Make sure you contract a licensed professional installer who can provide plenty of references (photos if possible) that you can call to verify competency and quality. This is a major investment, so be sure and research everything you can in advance so your experience will be a pleasant one.

 
One more thing to keep in mind is this. Since this is a natural product taken from the earth, there is very little control in veining and color variation. Be sure and ask if you are able to see the lot your order will be taken from so you can know ahead of time what to expect once the floor is installed. Some companies will (for an additional fee) allow you to hand-pick out of a lot those tiles you want installed. Either way, understand the nature of the product you are purchasing.
