Crema Marfil Polished w/Emp. Light + Emp. Dark Mosaic Tile 5/8x5/8"

Natural stone tile is a beautiful and durable material that can add a touch of luxury to any home. However, it is important to follow the proper installation tips to ensure a successful project.

Installation Steps:

1. Choose the right type of stone for your project. There are many different types of natural stone available, so it is important to choose the right type for your project. Consider the following factors when making your selection:
   • The intended use of the tile.
   • The level of traffic the tile will be exposed to.
   • The desired level of maintenance.
2. Prepare the subfloor. The subfloor must be clean, dry, and level before installing natural stone tile. Any imperfections in the subfloor will be transferred to the tile, so it is important to take the time to prepare the subfloor properly.


3. Use the correct adhesive. Not all adhesives are created equal. It is important to use a mortar that is specifically designed for natural stone tile.


4. Allow for proper expansion and contraction. Natural stone tile will expand and contract with changes in temperature and humidity. It is important to allow for proper expansion and contraction by leaving a gap of 1/8 inch between the tiles and the walls.


5. Grout Choice. Use non-sanded grout for softer stones like marble to avoid scratching.


6. Seal the stone. Sealing the stone will help to protect it from stains and water damage. It is important to seal the stone after it has been installed and cured.

Additional Tips:

• Always read the manufacturer's instructions carefully before installing any type of tile.
• If you are not sure how to install tile, it is always best to hire a professional.
• Be sure to wear the proper safety equipment when installing tile.
