Granite is a kind of deep diagenetic, often able to form a well-developed, visually discernible mineral particles,

hall floor, or open-air carving, etc,. Granite has always been the preferred materiall.

How To Install Seamless Granite Tile
Start at the bottom, if you are installing on a wall, or in the corner of a flat horizontal surface. Spread 
enough thinset for a few granite tiles with a notched trowel.

Place the granite tiles down so that they are next to each other. Leave no obvious gap. Repeat the 
thinset and placement for the first row, and then start the next. To make the lines between the tiles 
less obvious, you could stagger the rows so the seams aren't continuous across the surface.

Cut granite tiles with a wet saw so that the saw is cooled constantly. Use a diamond tip blade to 
cut through the hard material. Measure any places that your tile doesn't fit, and mark the back of 
the tile with the dimensions. Cut along the lines.

Let the tile sit for a day once you are finished.

Install 1/4-inch backerboard over existing drywall, if the drywall is in good shape, to add strength 
to the wall. Screw the backerboard into the wall studs, placing a screw every 6 inches along the 
stud. If the studs of the wall are exposed, use 1/2-inch backerboard, instead of 1/4 inch backerboard, 
to cover the studs. Screw the backerboard into the wall studs, placing a screw every 6 inches along 
the stud.

Mix up a small batch of thinset to the consistency of peanut butter. Use a joint knife (6 inches or longer) 
to spread a small amount of thinset along the joints of the backerboard, one joint at a time. Unroll a length
 of 2-inch backerboard tape and place it in the thinset. Run the joint knife over the backerboard tape to
 bed the tape into the thinset. Allow the thinset to dry.

Mix enough thinset (to a peanut butter consistency) to cover the wall that is being tiled. Use a margin 
trowel to load thinset onto a 1/4-by-1/4-by-3/8 inch tiling trowel. Beginning at the center of the wall at 
the floor level, spread thinset onto the backerboard using upstrokes to prevent thinset from falling onto 
the floor.
