Installation Overview
Installation requires careful coordination between stone fabrication and plumbing rough-in. Map supply line routes precisely before cutting to ensure access channels align with fixture locations. The large platform requires minimum 3/4-inch plywood substrate with perimeter support blocking. Install over completed plumbing rough-in, routing supply lines through designated access pathways. Use professional leveling systems across the entire 84-inch length to prevent lippage. Apply marine-grade sealant to all channel edges and plumbing penetrations. The substantial platform weight requires two-person handling and mechanical lifting equipment for safe positioning.
CNC Cutting Notes
Large format fabrication requires bed capacity of at least 90x48 inches for efficient single-piece cutting. Program multi-pass toolpaths for channel features, starting with roughing passes at 80 percent depth followed by finish passes. For waterjet cutting, reduce traverse speed by 30 percent when cutting supply channels to ensure smooth edge quality. The extended platform length requires careful material clamping to prevent flex during cutting. Use progressive cutting strategies moving from center outward to maintain material stability. Edge finishing should include 120-grit polishing minimum on all exposed surfaces and channel walls.
Material Compatibility
Premium engineered quartz at 3cm thickness is strongly recommended for this large-format application—materials like Caesarstone Maximum, Cambria Matte, or Silestone XM provide superior performance. The 84-inch length exceeds standard slab dimensions, requiring jumbo slabs or professionally executed seaming. Natural stone alternatives include granite and quartzite with proven track records in wet environments. Avoid marble in this application due to etching concerns. All materials must be sealed with penetrating sealers rated for continuous water exposure, with additional attention to channel sealing.
Where to Buy
Source jumbo slabs from premium stone distributors specializing in large-format materials. Major quartz manufacturers offer extended-size slabs through authorized dealers. Professional fabrication shops equipped with large-bed CNC systems can produce this platform from customer-supplied DXF files. Luxury bath showrooms often maintain relationships with qualified stone fabricators for integrated project management.
