Materiales Artesanales : Stone & Terracota

On this occasion we were commissioned to work with a macael white marble countertop and polished finish, measuring 206 cm long and 50 cm wide, with a 12 cm uncovered skirt. The special feature of this countertop is that it had a washbasin built into the same one-piece 50x30 cm countertop with rounded corners. To do this, in the first place, it was necessary to manufacture a countertop with the thickness of the sink, to subsequently reduce the thickness of the countertop to the required 3 cm. We leave photos of the entire process :

On this occasion we find a house in Madrid of about 100 m2 of terracotta floors distributed in several rooms. The floor was not new, so we had to proceed in the first place to a pickling process, to eliminate any remaining old treatment and also be able to descale the deeper and adhered stains. Once we had the entire surface cleaned, we had to wait 2 weeks until the soil completely dried up, as we got rainy days and the soil evaporated all the moisture and dried completely. Once verified that the floor had dried, we proceeded to the application of interior treatment with gloss finish finishing following the specifications of the client. Here we show you photos of the work done:

Custom work to coat iron pillars that support a porch.

These are the plans to manufacture the columns and the initial state of the porch with the iron pillars : From these plans we start with the manufacturing process : Finally we show you the final result with the columns mounted and integrated into the porch :
