For developers, contractors, and designers managing multi-unit projects like condominiums or hotels.
Pre-Installation Checklist: Ensuring Flawless Execution
Material Verification & Inspection:
- Order Confirmation: Cross-reference all delivery documents with project specs for quantity, dimensions, finish type, and edge details.
- Crate Inspection: Examine all crates for visible transit damage prior to signing delivery receipts.
- Slab Quality Control: Unpack in a designated area under good lighting. Inspect each slab for color consistency within the expected range and check for fabrication flaws.
- Documentation: Photograph and report any discrepancies immediately to our project support team.
Site Logistics & Preparation:
- Staging Area: Secure a clean, level, dry, and protected space on-site for uncrating and staging slabs. Ensure clear access paths.
- Handling Protocol: Use proper equipment (A-frames, suction cups) for all movement. Never drag slabs. Plan the movement sequence from staging to final installation points.
- Substrate Check: Verify all cabinetry or supports are perfectly level, plumb, and structurally sound before installation.
Installation & Handover Protocol
- Dry-Fit First: Before applying adhesive, dry-fit all sections to ensure perfect alignment with cutouts, sinks, faucets, and adjacent pieces.
- Use Approved Materials: Employ high-quality, non-staining epoxy adhesives and color-matched sealants designed for natural stone.
- Sealing Application: After installation and cleaning, apply an impregnating sealer suitable for granite to ensure long-term protection. This is critical for commercial settings.
- Post-Installation Protection: Cover finished surfaces with protective cardboard or felt to guard against damage from subsequent construction trades.
- Final Cleaning & Inspection: Conduct a thorough cleaning with pH-neutral stone cleaners. Perform a final walkthrough with the project manager.
- Client Handover: Provide care instructions and a sample maintenance kit including recommended sealer.
