Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about working with Tuqco Natural Stone.
What types of natural stone do you supply?
We supply a comprehensive range of natural stone including marble, travertine, limestone, granite, onyx and quartzite. Our collection is carefully curated from quarries across Italy, Turkey, Spain, Portugal, Brazil and beyond.
How do I request a physical sample of a stone?
We provide physical samples of our entire natural stone collection, including marble, travertine, limestone, and granite. Please contact our London team at info@tuqco.com or specify your required materials on our Contact page. Samples are dispatched via next-day courier within the UK.
What is the lead time for bespoke quarry sourcing?
For bespoke requests requiring specific veining patterns, book-matching, or unique block sizes, our lead time typically ranges from 6 to 10 weeks, depending on the quarry location. For stock materials held in our UK facilities, delivery can be arranged within 2–4 weeks.
Can I view the stone slabs before purchasing?
Yes, we strongly encourage clients to arrange an appointment. Since natural stone varies in pattern and tonality, viewing the exact slabs ensures they meet the aesthetic requirements of your project. We can arrange visits to our stone yards upon request.
Do you provide cut-to-size services for commercial developments?
Absolutely. We offer comprehensive fabrication and cut-to-size services, catering to everything from intricate bespoke furniture pieces to large-scale commercial flooring. Our fabrication team utilizes state-of-the-art waterjet cutting to achieve absolute precision.
Which surface finish is most durable for high-traffic areas?
For high-traffic commercial environments, honed, leathered, or brushed finishes are ideal as they effectively conceal minor scratches and wear. Polished finishes offer a spectacular high end visual but require more frequent maintenance in heavy footfall zones.
Are your natural stones sustainably sourced?
Sustainability and ethical sourcing are core to Tuqco Natural Stone. We partner exclusively with quarries that employ responsible extraction techniques, minimize environmental disruption, and support their local communities. More details can be found on our Sustainability page.
