Hi ,
I would agree with most of what randy
suggests, sounds like carrera marble and carrera cuts pretty easy. You might
want 120 copper bonded
Diamonds to start at. I use them all the
time for lippage jobs and they work great. Then 50 resins and on up to 800 then
you can polish.
Many times I polish carrera after 400 grit
and it works great. I use mb 12 to polish most marble and nothing will pop a
shine like mb-12 does
As far as pricing it sounds like at least
a two day job to me, I would charge 1800 to 2200 for that job, your cost are
helper for two days,
Use and ware on diamonds and equipment,
transportation back and forth for two days. And don’t forget sealer,
insurance costs all these should be factored in to know
What your real costs are on a daily basis.
If others would like to chime in I would like to here what they charge and how
much they try to make
On a daily basis with or without expenses
factored in. hope this helps and good luck with the job.

Quick answers to your questions:
Start your cutting here, so I would buy some 50 and 125 metals. then
proceed to your 50 resins.
I would remove the toilet.
We sometimes have to grind up to the edge, if possible remove base boards if
possible, take your time on the edges other wise you will need to work the
edges with your hand tool. If you can have baseboards removed then Make sure
baseboards aren't that compressed paper stuff that will be no good if it gets
wet.mastercraft is fine, you can add some weight for the grind if you can. The
charge would range $750.00 to 1,200.00 depending on if they want a matt
finish,satin, or high gloss. Good luck
