We normally advise between 10%-15% wastage, depending on the product.

Cov ntsiab lus:

The dollars in the details, therefore its best to have full piece corner pieces to really enhance the overall organic feeling off your wall – you’ll find this a much cleaner finish as you will not have any visual interference brought to you from mitred corners.

It’s key to be patient when using any free form or ashlar type natural stone product.

Try setting out the pieces on the ground and begin putting together the pieces the way you’d like to see them when they are up on your wall.

Dab tsi nplaum siv rau pob zeb cladding?

When adhering the stone pieces onto the substrate be sure to use a quality adhesive, Armstone recommends the products from Mapei and we’ve found the moisture sensitive glue from Mapei Granirapid Kit to be the best solution thus far.

The reasons why are quite important, Mapei Granirapid kit is a moisture sensitive adhesive which helps resists against moisture. Moisture is the number one culprit for de-bonding glue. Which to put simply means if you don’t use this type of glue there is a chance your wall will fall apart over time.

“Granirapid is a High performance, deformable, fast setting and hydration two-component cementitious adhesive for ceramic tiles and stone material.

Particularly suitable for the installation of stone material that is moderately unstable to moisture and requires a rapid drying of the adhesive. Suitable for bonding floors subject to heavy traffic.”

YUAV UA LI CAS THIAJ LI TXOJ CAI?

You're installer will need to make sure each stone piece is clean and ready to take on the glue, swiftly paste the glue onto the back of each individual piece of stone and also on the substrate. All surfaces should be clean, dry and free of existing sealers or coatings. Dust off, wipe or brush all surfaces to be sealed to remove all loose particles that could adversely affect sealer penetration and performance.

Siv cov packers kom muaj qhov sib txawv ntawm txhua lub pob zeb. Koj tuaj yeem siv cov packers yas los yog packers ua los ntawm cov khoom ntoo.
