W1-02 Why Is This So Expensive
Denise Butchko, A&D Trade Channel Manager, Precision Stone Design | Gina Saran, Owner, Precision Stone Design
Stone plays an integral role in the beauty and functionality of many design projects, yet understanding why stone installations can be so expensive isn't always straightforward. In this session, we'll explore the factors that drive project costs—from material selection and fabrication to installation requirements and design decisions. Along the way, we'll explain how those same factors can affect project timelines. Our goal is to provide the clarity designers need to make informed decisions, set realistic client expectations, and speak confidently about stone installations.
