Discover The Simple Steps In Installing Marble Veneers

By Scott Ross


Veneers can be constructed by suing stones, cements and bricks. Some are not masonry veneers like woods and other types. Masonry veneers consist of single nonstructural exterior that is layered in masonry materials. They are constructed to provide more strength and support. It comes in different styles and techniques but they all give the same benefits and advantages to structures like buildings and homes. When it concerns with thin marble veneer, individuals will have to follow the strict guidelines and procedures to make sure the project is top quality and first class made.

When preparing and layering the scratch coats, it is important to prepare first the surface. Marble veneers could be applied to different masonry surfaces like concrete, cinder blocks and bricks. When working with other non masonry surfaces, make sure to make an appropriate surface by surrounding it with a barrier of water first.

Determine the layout of stones and marbles. It would be helpful to do some dry run and think about how they will appear when constructed with the walls. It is important to spend some time to think and configure the placements because this will save time and effort when doing the trimming later on. This will allow you to plan ahead on the construction and placement of materials.

The membrane that still has the unpeeled side is very sticky. If not handled carefully, it will stick anywhere. It might stick to an area where you do not want it there. When working inside the house, it will not need to set down the barriers unless of course if you are adding marbles to the wood surfaces.

When the surface is finish, clean away all the excess material by using a whisk broom and water. Make sure to eliminate and remove all the mortar within the marbles faces before reaching thirty minutes. If the mortar already hardens and stiffens, it would be impossible to remove it especially when it reaches at least twenty four hours.

To make sure the marbles are damp, dry it first. If possible, use masonry brush to slightly moisten the resources but never saturate it. This will prevent the materials to draw some moisture on the mortars. This will make it have a strong bond.

Start installing the materials by beginning on the bottom part. For the parts that have trimmed edges, put them away from the focal points either up or down. Press them towards the mortar and squeeze them slightly to excess some mortar and to strengthen the bonding.

Researching is the only way to understand and learn the different kinds of veneers and their advantages. Give yourself some time to know the different benefits and how each material differs from one another. Consult some professionals to better understand how the classification of materials will benefit to your homes.

Price will be the key for a successful project. Before doing the project, get a quote and estimation from a contractor in order to budget out ball the possible expenses. They will provide detailed information on how much is the costs of the project.
