Create a stunning focal point that elevates your architecture and brand. Priority One Flooring designs and installs custom waterjet-cut marble medallions—precision fabricated from marble, granite, and porcelain—for floors, lobbies, foyers, corridors, feature walls, and reception areas across Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, Richmond, Coquitlam, and Langley. Every medallion is engineered for tight joints, perfect symmetry, and crystal-clean edges that last decades.
Why Waterjet Medallions
Waterjet technology uses high-pressure water and fine abrasive to slice stone with microscopic accuracy—no heat, no chipping, and minimal stress. That means crisp geometry, delicate curves, and repeatable detail even in soft marble. Compared to saw-cut mosaics, waterjet assemblies deliver cleaner joints, tighter tolerances, and a more refined finish.- Ultra-clean edges: perfect mitres and tight seams without burn marks or blow-outs.
- Design freedom: geometric patterns, crests, logos, florals, and abstract motifs.
- Longevity: marble medallions are timeless, repairable, and increase property value.
- Performance: proper setting materials and sealing resist moisture and stains.
Where They Excel
- Entryways & Foyers: centre the space with a durable, symmetrical focal point.
- Lobbies & Reception: reinforce your brand with a logo medallion under pendant lighting.
- Corridors & Rotundas: markers for wayfinding and architectural rhythm.
- Feature Walls: book-matched marble panels with inset waterjet designs.
Available after-hours for commercial installs to protect operations and schedules.
Waterjet Tile & Stone Cutting Services in Vancouver
In addition to custom medallions, we provide waterjet cutting services for tile and stone flooring projects throughout Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. Our waterjet process is used to fabricate precision components that integrate directly into finished floor and wall installations.
- Porcelain and large-format slab cutting
- Marble and natural stone inlays
- Decorative borders and feature bands
- Custom mosaic and pattern cutting
- Logo, crest, and architectural tile elements
All waterjet-cut pieces are engineered to match surrounding tile thickness, joint layout, and substrate tolerances so assemblies install flush, square, and on-grid with the rest of the floor or wall system.
This service is commonly specified by homeowners, designers, and commercial teams who require clean, chip-free edges and repeatable accuracy for custom flooring and architectural tile layouts.
Design Options, Materials & Finishes
We balance aesthetics with constructability. Your medallion is designed to align with room geometry, lighting, and traffic paths, then engineered for tile thickness, grout width, expansion, and substrate tolerances. The result is art that looks built-in, not added-on.Marble & Natural Stone
Classic luxury with natural veining and depth. We specify compatible sealers and neutral-pH cleaning systems to preserve finish.- Carrara, Calacatta, Crema Marfil
- Honed, polished, leathered
- Contrast borders & inlays
Granite & Porphyry
High abrasion resistance for commercial entries and lobbies. Excellent for dark contrasts, logos, and compass roses.- Dense, durable, colour-stable
- Ideal for heavy foot traffic
- Pairs well with porcelain
Porcelain & Ceramic
Color-consistent and often thinner/lighter for wall applications. Great for large formats and tight tolerances.- Matte, satin, polished
- Wood, stone, terrazzo looks
- Low maintenance
Patterns & Motifs
Compass roses, Greek keys, Arabesque, floral scrolls, crests and monograms. Send a sketch or CAD—our team will refine, balance, and proof.Sizes & Thickness
Common sizes are 24″, 36″, 48″ round or square; custom diameters available. We coordinate thickness build-ups so assemblies sit flush.Edges & Grout

Our Waterjet Medallion Process
1) Discovery & Concept
Send sketches, inspiration photos, or CAD. We confirm scale, traffic loads, substrate planarity, lighting, and focal sightlines.2) Engineering & Mock-Up
We finalize joint widths, piece nesting, and grain direction, then supply proofs for sign-off before fabrication.3) Material Selection
Choose from curated marbles, granites, and porcelains. We advise on slip, finish, and colour fastness.4) Waterjet Fabrication
Pieces are cut cold with abrasive waterjet for chip-free, heat-free edges and precision tolerance.5) Dry-Fit & Finishing
We pre-assemble to validate geometry, polish edges, and ensure consistent reveals and grout gaps.6) Installation & Handover
Installed flush with surrounding tile, grouted, cleaned, and sealed as specified. Care guide included.What Affects Cost & Timeline
- Pattern complexity: tightly nested curves, monograms, and multi-layer inlays add cutting time.
- Material choice: premium marble vs porcelain vs granite; mixed-stone compositions.
- Size & thickness: 24″, 36″, 48″, custom diameters; wall vs floor build-ups.
- Substrate prep: flatness, crack isolation, and movement joint coordination.
- Access & staging: elevator time, off-hours installs, protection and barricades.
Send photos or plans for a fast ballpark. Detailed quotes follow site check or verified drawings.
Performance & Care
