Distinctive Qualities of Taj Mahal Stone

  • Timeless Elegance, Marble-like Appearance with Added Resilience: Taj Mahal Quartzite emulates the luxurious look of marble while offering superior durability.

Its heat-resistant properties ensure it can withstand hot pots and pans without damage, and its scratch resistance means it maintains its pristine look even in the busiest of kitchens.
  • Simple Upkeep, Requires Sealing, but Easy to Care For: While Taj Mahal Quartzite does require periodic sealing to maintain its protective surface, the overall maintenance is relatively straightforward. Regular cleaning with mild soap and water is typically all that's needed to keep this stone looking its best, making it a practical choice for both aesthetic and functional purposes.

Perfect Installation with Cutting-Edge Tools

At Marble & Granite Tech, we take immense pride in our ability to deliver flawless quartzite countertop installations. Our master craftsmen are equipped with the latest tools and technologies to ensure precision and excellence in every project.

Gorilla Grip Seam Setter for perfect countertops seams

One of the critical tools we use is the Gorilla Grip Seam Setter. This high-precision device is designed to align and hold stone slabs together during installation, ensuring that seams are virtually invisible. The Gorilla Grip Seam Setter uses powerful suction and adjustable clamps to create a tight, secure bond between the slabs, resulting in a flawless, continuous surface that enhances the overall aesthetic of your countertops.

By utilizing such advanced tools, we are able to achieve a seamless finish that not only looks stunning but also adds to the durability and longevity of your quartzite countertops. Our commitment to using top-of-the-line equipment, combined with the expertise of our skilled craftsmen, ensures that every installation meets the highest standards of quality and beauty.

Steps in the Installation Process

  • Measurement and Template Creation
    The first step in the installation process is taking accurate measurements of the space where the quartzite countertops will be installed. Our skilled technicians use precise measuring tools to ensure every dimension is captured correctly. Following this, custom templates are created to match the exact contours and layout of your kitchen or bathroom. These templates serve as blueprints, ensuring that the quartzite slabs will fit perfectly into your space without any gaps or overhangs.
  • Cutting and Edging
    With the templates ready, the quartzite slabs are carefully cut to size using advanced cutting equipment. This process requires a high level of skill and precision to maintain the integrity of the stone and achieve the desired dimensions. Once cut, the edges of the slabs are carefully shaped and finished to meet the precise design specifications. Whether you prefer a classic straight edge, a more ornate bullnose, or any other custom edge profile, our craftsmen ensure that each edge is flawlessly executed to enhance the overall look of your countertops.
  • Seam Setting
    One of the most critical aspects of the installation is the seam setting. At Marble & Granite Tech, we utilize the Gorilla Grip Seam Setter, a high-precision device that ensures the seams between quartzite slabs are perfectly aligned and secured. This tool uses powerful suction cups and adjustable clamps to hold the slabs tightly together, allowing for precise adjustments and a tight, even seam. The result is a virtually invisible seam that blends seamlessly with the rest of the countertop, providing a smooth, continuous surface that enhances the beauty of the quartzite.
  • Polishing and Sealing
    Once the slabs are securely in place and the seams are perfectly set, the surface is polished to a high shine. This step involves using increasingly finer abrasives to enhance the natural luster and beauty of the quartzite. After polishing, the countertops are sealed to protect against stains, etching, and other potential damage. The sealing process involves applying a high-quality sealant that penetrates the stone, providing a durable barrier that helps maintain the pristine appearance of your countertops over time. Regular resealing is recommended to keep the quartzite looking its best and to prolong its lifespan.

By following these meticulous steps, Marble & Granite Tech ensures that your Taj Mahal Quartzite countertops are not only beautiful but also installed to the highest standards of craftsmanship and durability.
