Frequently Asked Questions
REALLY BASIC:
To do a natural stone project in Melbourne, you need at minimum both one of each:
- A stone supplier (like Gladstones Granite and Marble)
- A stonemason
If you a working with an interior designer, architect, builder, kitchen/bathroom company, etc, they will usually have a stonemason they normally work with.
THEN WHAT?
1. Your stone mason (usually contacted first) will use your building/cabinet plans to advise you approximately how many slabs you will require for your job.
2. With this information, you can come to Gladstones Granite, choose the material that you love, and put these slabs on hold
3. Then place a holding deposit on this stone either via your builder/designer/stonemason (usually easier) or directly through us. We will hold your material at our facility until your job is ready. We can deliver or your stonemason can pickup from our Clayton warehouse.
(Very) HELPFUL INFORMATION:
Beginner mistakes: You should pick your stone first before any other finish
