The Selection Process

House renovations and new constructions can be a daunting affair and you may not know where to begin in selecting the materials for your surfaces.

Once you have the layout of your kitchen or bathroom decided, it is time to start thinking about the material you would like. With so many unique, beautiful and eye-catching natural stones and a growing array of man-made Quartz and Ceramics on offer, the choice is endless and should be the priority in your design. Matching your colours to the material is a far easier option than the other way around and allows you the freedom of choosing the surface you truly love.

At Cullifords we have a vast and varied selection of slabs on display in our impressive yard, sourced from all over the world. A visit here is highly recommended, not only can you view a large variety of blocks and slabs for your project, you can benefit from the knowledge and experience of our staff who can guide you through the selection process advising on suitability, finishes, and textures. Natural stones and man-made surfaces are a complex subject, we have names and classifications of surface types, such as hard Granites and soft Quartzites to try and make it easier to understand. Please be aware that these are our in-house labels and not intended for geological and technical identification.

Once you have chosen a surface, we will give you the details to pass onto you selected retailer or fabricator. Don’t worry if you don’t have anyone as we can provide contact details of people in your area. As we are a wholesaler, we do not sell direct to the customer, so the quote from the fabricator or retailer will include the cost of your chosen material, fabrication and installation.

The beauty of natural stone is the colours and variance and the feeling you get from their touch.
