SERVICES
In the work process we use two main types of installation:
-
Using adhesive mixtures — a classic type of installation used in most of the cases. We use mixtures depending on the type of stone and conditions in which product will be located.
-
"Dry" installation is used for installation on vertical surfaces and consists in welding of a metal frame and subsequent attachment of stone to it.
This type of installation has a number of advantages:
-reliable
-the possibility of implementation complex constructions
-the possibility of working in adverse weather conditions
Having a number of benefits, this method is much more expensive.
INSTALATTION
STONE PROCESSING
After installation of the stone, we use special care products such as:
-Hydrophobizers prevent sandstone and limestone from absorbing water;
-Crystallizers give the polished surface an extra shine;
-the «wet effect» adds shine to torn surfaces.
It is important to pay attention to the methods of surface treatment. Our company offers following surface finishes for the natural stone:
SAWN is achieved by the stone processing with diamond saw blades. As a result, the stone is smooth, but has a slightly rough surface.
POLISHED is one of the most popular types of natural stone finishing. In order not to damage the stone, separate instructions and precautions for polishing are used for different rocks. One of the elements of preparatory process is the filling of pores and cracks with resin, cement etc.
HONED — this finish shows the pattern of stone well. Products processed in a such way are often used for the flooring or in external cladding for buildings. The result is achieved by using grinding wheels sprayed with micro-grinding powders.
GRINDED is formed by processing of stones with grinding wheels. It is characterized by balanced roughness with relief irregularities up to 0.5 mm high. Such surface treatment should be used for light rocks of natural stone with unexpressed pattern.
FLAMED is achieved by burning the surface of the stone. The product is heated to the melting point of upper layers of the rock. This finish corrects the visual characteristics of stone and increases the stone's durability to natural or physical damage.
BRUSHED — the surface is scratched to give it roughness. This method is used for visual artificial aging of the products made of soft types of marble and granite. It is created by using abrasive (diamond) brushes under high pressure. As a result, the product has a refined texture. This is the reason for popularity of this style in the design of vintage stone decorative elements.
Products such as windowsills, stairs, countertops require mandatory further processing of the ends. The type of polishing depends on the type of stone. We use 2 main types of end polishing:
-diamond polishing
-abrasive polishing
