Bathrooms
Shower surrounds, thresholds, window sills and bath panels cut from one stone, so a bathroom reads as a single material rather than a set of parts. Basin tops have a page of their own.
A bathroom is a small room that gets looked at closely, and it is usually the tiling and the joints that give it away. Running one stone across the shower wall, the threshold, the sill and the bath panel takes most of those joints out, and what is left is stone rather than grout.
We template the room by hand once the walls are true, have the pieces cut and polished by our experienced fabricators, and fit them ourselves. Wherever the sizes allow we lay the pieces out on the same slab, so the colour and the movement carry from one to the next instead of meeting by accident.
Quartz is the easiest material to live with in a bathroom, because it takes water, cosmetics and cleaning products in its stride. Marble and other natural stones look wonderful in here and ask for a little more of you: sealing on fitting, and wiping up anything acidic rather than leaving it to sit.
What we make
One team runs the job from first measurement to final fit.
Shower walls and thresholds
Full-height shower panels, low thresholds and shelves cut from the same stone, with fewer joints to keep clean.
Window sills and returns
Sills cut to the reveal and finished on every edge that shows, in the material already in the room.
Bath surrounds and panels
A stone top to a panelled bath, or a surround cut around it, templated to the opening as built.
Laid out together
Where the sizes allow, the pieces for one room come off one slab, so the stone agrees across the bathroom.
The materials
Marble, quartz, granite and porcelain, with more available on request. Not sure what suits you? We will tell you the truth, not just what is easiest to sell.
See the stone in your own kitchen
We bring the samples to you and look at them in your own light, at no charge. If something suits the room better than what you had in mind, we will say so.
