0.75x12 Daphne White Honed Modern Bullnose Trim

Ensuring a seamless and successful tile installation requires careful consideration of various factors, including the addition of an overage to your order. At Stone Products Unlimited, Inc., we prioritize transparency and customer satisfaction, which is why we highly recommend adding an overage of between 10-30% to your order.

Several factors influence the recommended overage percentage:

• Account for Wastage: Wastage typically occurs during cutting, trimming,
  and installation. It's essential to factor in an allowance for wastage
  when calculating your material requirements. Depending on the complexity
  of your project and the type of material being used, wastage can range
  from 5% to 15% or more.
• Grout Space: The space between tiles for grout application is a crucial aspect of installation. Depending on your preferred grout width, a certain amount of extra tile may be needed to accommodate variations in spacing.
• Install Area: The size and complexity of the installation area can impact the amount of wastage during cutting and fitting. Larger areas or areas with intricate layouts may require a higher overage percentage.
• Preferred Selection: Natural stone and other natural materials can vary
  in color, texture, and veining from batch to batch or even within the
  same batch. Many customers prefer to sort through tiles to select those
  with the most desirable patterns or variations. Ordering an overage
  allows for this selection process without risking a shortage of
  materials.
• Future Use: It's recommended to include a small amount of extra
  material, known as "attic stock," to be stored for future repairs or
  replacements. Having extra tiles on hand for future repairs or
  renovations can save time and ensure consistency in materials. It's
  advisable to have a surplus to avoid the inconvenience of searching for
  matching tiles later on.  Keep in mind that material from a quarry today
  may differ from what was available in the past. Additionally, there may
  be variations between different quarries of the same material.
  Typically, attic stock constitutes approximately 10% extra material
  beyond what is needed for the initial installation.
• Avoiding Add-ons: Ordering additional tiles upfront helps prevent the need for small add-on orders, which can be time-consuming and may result in variations in shade or lot.
• Damage during transit:  A small percentage up to 5% of damage may occur
  during transit of the product and to not delay from your project moving
  forward it is important to purchase additional products to keep things
  moving on time.

Before placing your order, we strongly recommend confirming your measurements with your installer to ensure accuracy. It's essential to discuss your specific requirements and any unique considerations with your installer to determine the appropriate overage percentage for your project.

It's important to note that the nominal size of tiles listed may include the suggested grout space, which can impact the actual size of the tile. This discrepancy is standard practice in the industry and ensures that installations meet quality standards.
