Marble is among the oldest, most expensive stones. It forms as a result of limestone being compressed and exposed to heat over time. This metamorphic rock was popular in ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome where off-white and white marble was used to construct sculptures, tombs and massive pillars. Today, marble is used for various structural and aesthetic purposes such as kitchen and bathroom countertops, floors, walls and fireplaces, among other home elements. Additionally, it’s no longer just for the wealthy and is available for homeowners to incorporate into their décor.
Marble slabs vary in price depending upon their country of origin. This means that marble mined locally is likely cheaper than a slab shipped from another country. Additionally, marble from Brazil and Italy generally costs more as the buyer needs to pay import/export taxes alongside shipping costs.
• Specialty Edges
Be it a bevelled edge or waterfall effect, the design you want for your countertop plays into the price. Specialty formations tend to cost much more as they require more time to fabricate. However, it’s important to select the edge as it will impact the overall design.
• Thickness
The thickness of your marble slab is another cost factor. Three varieties are most common: ¾” or 2cm, 1 ¼” or 3 cm and 2” or 5 cm. The thicker the slab, the pricier it will be, thereby increasing your budget.

Since marble is a porous material, it needs to be sealed to prevent it from absorbing liquids.
Marble slabs contain many pores, making it easy for the stone to absorb liquids from spills, especially in a room such as a kitchen. So, it’s necessary to have a marble countertop sealed as soon as installation is complete.
It can be used both inside and outside your home.
The durability of natural stone gives it the advantage of being used in any part of a home, including but not limited to countertops, fireplace surrounds, vanity tops, wall cladding and flooring.
Marble has numerous benefits to enjoy when installed in your home in any form.
Some benefits to incorporating marble into your home include durability, ease of maintenance, increased property value, heat and scratch resistance.
Marble is softer than other stones so it’s best to be careful around it.
Marble is considerably softer than quartz, granite and other stones, so you should be careful not to bang heavy objects such as pots and pans into it, especially towards the centre of the stone.
Most installations require a seam during installation.
Most stones need a seam during installation. You can work with your fabricator during the design and layout process to place them in a less conspicuous manner. However, no matter how many seams your product has, it will appear to have a smooth and seamless finish.
To prevent your white marble surface from turning yellow, avoid exposing it to water for an extended period of time.
White marble surfaces tend to turn brown or yellow when exposed to water for a long period. It may also happen if the product is exposed to harsh chemicals such as acids found in foods and bleach. Although the stone can be repaired, it’s best to contact an expert with the skills to take care of the problem.
