aluka 32 Report post Posted July 3, 2014 Hi friends,I am new to this forum. Im buying a new resale flat. Planning to renovate with granite flooring in living.My current flat got granite flooring - I am quite addicted to it. I see there is not much information on granite flooring except that it is too expensive and difficult to maintain. But I used granite in my current flat for over 12 years - no problem at all.Any idea how much it will cost? Any reliable ID / contractor who can do the job well. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nerrad 7 Report post Posted July 3, 2014 If you are only laying granite tiles, you may want to approach granite tile suppliers (so many of them, just flip a random Home&Decor magazine and you will see a few) directly.If granite flooring is part of many works that you are going to do, then it is best to park this under the ID contractor's scope. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aluka 32 Report post Posted July 4, 2014 Thanks Bro Nerrad.I spoke to few IDs. They are all against granite. They all say expensive, difficult to install, porous - so any spill will be problem etc.,Any friends out there who have installed granite flooring and find it good?Any recommended suppliers and installers? Please PM me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TITW 5 Report post Posted July 21, 2014 Hi aluka, got my tiles mainly from both companies... Both sides have good buys.. depending on the type of tiles and costs you are looking for and willing to pay.. Was at Hafary today, there were some offers for european tiles, fyi.
