A consistent specification
Compare quotations against the same material, thickness, finish and dimensions. Separate surface areas from piece counts. Clarify whether quantities include the allowances for cutting, selection and future replacements set by the project team.
Application and processing
Floors, stairs, sills and cladding need different information. Specify edges, exposed faces, openings and special details. Processing options are assessed against the particular stone and project requirements rather than assumed for every size or design.
Planning the supply
Project location, work phases and preferred delivery dates help define a realistic supply plan. Packaging, transport and receipt must be discussed before ordering. Timing and terms are agreed for the individual enquiry.
Frequently asked questions
What is needed for a specific quotation?
Material or desired appearance, application, quantities, dimensions, thickness, finish, special details and project location. Identify any undecided items so they can be discussed explicitly.
Does the quotation include installation?
This page concerns stone supply. Each quotation must explicitly identify the work and services included; installation should not be assumed.
