⚠️ Installation & Care Tips

  • Sealing is Essential: As this is natural marble, it is porous. You must clean and seal the tiles **before and after** grouting using a high-quality impregnating sealer (like Lithofin MN Stain Stop).
  • Dry Laying: Due to the "Extreme Variation" in colour and veining, we strongly recommend dry-laying your mosaic sheets before fixing them. This allows you to balance the darker burgundy sheets with the lighter white ones for a harmonious finish.
  • Grout Colour: We recommend a neutral grout such as **White** or **Moon White** to let the marble's natural colour take centre stage.
  • Adhesive: Use a **White** flexible adhesive to prevent shadowing or staining through the lighter parts of the stone.

Product Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the tile look different from the photo?

This is natural marble, not a printed ceramic. "Extreme variation" is a key characteristic of Calacatta Viola. You should expect a mix of heavy purple veining, lighter white patches, and even hints of green or grey. This natural variety is what makes it a luxury product.

Can I use acidic cleaners?

No. Marble is calcium-based and sensitive to acid. Never use bleach, vinegar, or harsh bathroom cleaners as they will etch the surface. Use a PH-neutral cleaner specifically designed for natural stone.

Is it suitable for a shower floor?

Yes! The mosaic format means there are many grout lines, which provide excellent natural slip resistance, making it safer for wet room floors than large slab marble.

Does it need sealing?

Yes. It is a natural stone product and must be sealed to protect against staining and moisture absorption. We can supply the correct sealer for your project.

Why buy from Hyperion Tiles?
