Mobile Marble and Stone Installer

Homeowners, kitchen and bath remodelers, general contractors, interior designers, stone fabricators and small commercial clients.

Price per square foot or per job, with extra charges for templates, edge work, sink cutouts and difficult access. Subcontract work brings steadier jobs, while direct clients usually pay better margins.

• Precise measuring and leveling
• Safe handling of heavy slabs
• Tile, stone and adhesive know-how
• Clear quotes and reliable scheduling

• State or local contractor license requirements, which can depend on job size, so check with your state licensing board
• General liability insurance, plus workers' compensation once you hire help
• Stone dust can be a health risk, so check OSHA silica rules and use wet cutting and proper respirators

Startup costs are typically around $5,000 to $25,000, depending on your tools, vehicle and insurance. Monthly revenue is typically around $3,000 to $12,000, depending on job size and how often you work. These are estimates, not profit.

Check state or local contractor license requirements with your state licensing board, as they can depend on job size. Also check insurance, workers' compensation once you hire, and OSHA silica rules, since stone dust can be a health risk.

You need precise measuring and leveling, safe handling of heavy slabs, tile, stone and adhesive know-how, and clear quotes with reliable scheduling. Many installers start as subcontractors for fabricators and remodelers before taking direct clients.
