My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Shower curb and counter material?

13 years ago
What material did you use for the shower curb? I'm seriously considering Marmi Statuario Venato porcelain tiles for my bathroom floors and shower but want to use marble slab on the counter and curbs. I'm concerned about the look of the natural marble next to the porcelain tile.

    This product is called Okite. It is an Italian quartz that very much resembles Arabascato marble. I chose products that had very different veining. The Marmi Statuario mimics a Statuario marble. I would choose something with a different type of veining like an Arabascato or Aarrara.

    This is the Arabascato Verde - it has a green tint. Thanks!
