Bonding Marble is one of the most difficult tasks to undertake in the construction industry. Despite the immense difficulty, bonding marble has actually become increasingly popular or even “fashionable” over recent years. Marble is a very dense stone forged from limestone and finished with a high polish. It is these traits that make it very difficult to Bond Marble.
The conventional method to Bond Marble is to drill the marble, pour a resin inside, tap in the anchors and then wait for at least 24 hours. Whilst this method will yield quite good results, it is a very time consuming procedure. On top of the long wait, there is also a high possibility that the marble will crack during the drilling process.
The most common adhesives for Bonding Marble are not very effective. These type of adhesives are two component epoxies which MUST be mixed in exactly the right proportions or they will fail. In addition to this, these adhesives take at least 48 hours to cure and lack the necessary flexibility needed to successfully bond marble.
