Added on July 15, 2012, 8:25 amWhat tiles you get, for that price include installation don't look like good brand like Niro or grocera.

The marble is cheap as already with installed and polishing. Where u get it ? Can pm me contact.

I bought a second hand unit and am actually spending money to remove the pink broken marble which I felt looked kinda 70's. One man's meat is another man's poison I guess

I put in tiles for my living, dining area and store room.

Total area 587.5 sq ft.

I bought Feruni Garnet YE04NN 60x60cm tiles at RM11.99 each from Feruni directly at one of the HomeDec or some other show at PWTC.

184 tiles = RM2,286.16 (RM80 is for delivery). Inclusive of side skirting. Still have a few tiles left over for spare.

Experienced installer is really a must. They laid it all out with very narrow gaps and looks really nice.

At the end of the day, no more money for marble flooring. haha. My feet can feel the difference though; as phoenix69 said, marble has the cooling effect. Tiles are not so cooling.

Comparing marble and tile is like comparing natural timber floor finish and engineered wood planks eg. Inovar. The feel is very different.

Ipoh Pink marble (some call it 'pig lung marble' in cantonese) tend to have a lot of fissures/fine cracks. Matching marble slabs is one big hassle as the colour and grain can be very incosistent.

Dear Bro,
If you dont mind can you post the photo of your living room and the other room.

TQ

Also depend on wat marble, marble cost range from few ringgit to hundred ringgit per sqft. Example: commercial grade creamma mafill cost rm 25/sqft, not include installation

Bro,

Is the marbles company name = ES Marble.

If not kindly PM me the contact. FYI i m looking for the pink marble as well but the latest pink
marble is not as good as last time. It has more grains than previous one.

for same species normally engineering board cheaper.

Engineering boards are REAL timber verneers on a backing. Laminated boards are timber PRINTS on backing. They are NOT the same.

Bro,

I m going to ipoh this weekend. Can i have the marble factory name that you mention from the main road towards cameron.

Is the price reasonable ? How much per square feet for good ipoh pink marble ?

TQ

need some advice on what color can i match with greenish marble flooring (those old fashion type) - having a headache thinkin of what paint and furniture color to match with.

whats the price ?

Interesting. Please share the finished pics with us.

More pictures bro. Wanna learn how it is done. 

The marble cutting tools is very old school right. No need electric no motor. Just big heavy scissor.

Need to go that far meh? One pallet is about one ton right. Got mine at salak south, but is blueris, is defiantly more expensive, about 100 more, but I only use 1/3 pallet for my 120sqft, for entire double stories ground floor maybe only need 3 pallets.

Mine was very old school, use the mechanical heavy scissor like cutter.

Dear Liew,

Kindly PM me the marble installer contact and the price quoted as my installer is very BZ at the moment.

How is your pink marble quality after Polishing ?

I m waiting mine to be delivered after Merdeka day. Hopefully this marble will be good one.

From all of your comment, one pallet broken marble is good for at least 250/ sq ft. Hopefully
my order based on my drawing for 2' X 2' will be accurate, otherwise  it will be wasted.

Broken marble is really cheap huh, if based on 250 sq ft / pallet the material cost is only around RM 1/sq ft,
it is much more cheapet than tiles. If inclusive of installation, it should be around RM 4 - 5 / Sq ft if my
information is correct.

Waiting more picture from your broken marble.

TQ
