Good day to all.

Need a marble supplier for my house reno. Prefer at Subang Jaya location. Want to compare the price with Marble emporium located at Damansara Utama. Quote me about RM28-RM40 for medium product per square feet. Need a advice.

Thank you.

try contact rock crystal, Ms evon.

what type of marble and is the quote includes installation?

According to sales person, its medium quality.Don't know what type it was.They said it's from indonesia or italy or greece. Price without installation. Its' expansive?

I think the price is around there ... but you need to make sure what type of marble you're getting.
You shd check out other places ... see if they have overruns from some big projects. Maybe you can get cheaper.

there are so many type and colour of marble, how to comment without knowing which type of marble were you referring to?

Thank u sir..btw u may have idea what type of marble for that price. ipoh white marble is ok but i have budget for better quality.Wife like the yellowish but i prefer greenish. Totally lost

i think dont bother with ipoh marble. I would search hard for something like creme marfil (from spain I think) for that price.

You are right. I have no idea what type of marble to choose. Need recommendation for that. Budget is there but i'm zero in this.

crema marfil - you can get below RM40 per sqft when on sale. need to search ....

Finally,we decide to install ipoh marble at RM19s/f including installation/polishing. Before that, my wife choose to have volakas (greece) at RM35s/f but given bad review even from seller. Easy to leave watermark/stain, poor water resistance and other problem that scared us. Is the price is good for ipoh marble. Many type of them and i choose to have white (90%) (seen the sample) with very-very small crystal compare with other sample. Seller told that he must pay extra to ppl there (quarry) to choose the marble that i want. RM19s/f is good price?

I had volakas installed in my house, and did not encounter any problem the last 8 years. Basically a good marble specialist will precoat the marble a day before with water proof coating. If no water proofing is applied, moisture from cement base may seep through the marble leaving an ugly water mark stain. All marbles are porous, but wont leave any stain if you wipe them immediately after spillage.

Also remember to ask your marble guy to prelabel your marble block before cutting in the factory, so the marble specialist can arrange and glue the marble accordingly, like before they cut the block. The grain will then flow nicely. Be prepare to pay a premium for this type of service. I paid Rm8 psf for labour.

is it 2X2? price include transportation and installation?

Mind to share the Volakas's supplier detail.I am current looking for Volakas at bulk quantity.TQ

Its 1x2 including transportation/installation and 1x polishing.

white local marble is quite cheap. my view is the price is slightly on the higher side, but if they can do it properly and deliver on time, why not?

I want to share the info. My house build at Kota Bharu, Kelantan. There are only 2 supplier (with factory) available at Kelantan. During my visit to this factory, i see many siamese, on negotiation to buy the ipoh marble. Ask one of them why they choose ipoh marble and not the imported marble (greece/italy/spain). According to them, our ipoh marble had better quality compare to other imported marble. They willing to travel 1000 km and ready to pay huge amount for transportation/custom for ipoh marble. i'm ok with ipoh marble and for the border, i choose black levanto (usa). It's nice combination?
