Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to seal this marble? Yes. As a natural stone, Calacatta marble is porous. We recommend applying a high-quality penetrating sealer before and after grouting to protect against stains and moisture.

Can this be used on shower floors? Absolutely. The circular shape of the penny rounds provides numerous grout lines, which significantly increases slip resistance, making it one of the safest and most stylish choices for wet areas.

What color grout is recommended for Calacatta Honed marble? To highlight the natural stone, many designers prefer a light grey or "Bright White" grout. If you want a more seamless look that emphasizes the veining, choose a grout color that matches the base white of the marble.

How do I clean honed marble? Avoid acidic cleaners (like vinegar or lemon juice) and harsh bleach. Use a pH-neutral stone cleaner and a soft cloth to maintain the honed finish and prevent "etching" or dulling of the stone.
