Yashas Marbles Stores

We are located at 87/1 Vijaya Nagar in the Shiva Estate area, right on Lake Road. If you are coming from Sarvodaya Hospital, you will see us pretty easily. The yard is usually full of slabs of marble and crates of tiles that just arrived. It can get pretty messy with the stone dust and the water we use to keep things cool when we have to cut something. It’s a heavy job, moving these pieces around all day. We spend a lot of time helping people look through the different patterns and colors because no two stones look exactly the same. Some are grey, some are white with veins, and others have spots we can't even name. Our office is just a small corner in the warehouse where we keep the books and the phone. It’s not air-conditioned or anything, just a fan and some chairs for when customers want to sit and talk about their floors. We have trucks coming in and out from the lake side which keeps us on our toes. Sometimes the hospital traffic makes it hard for the big lorries to turn in, but we manage. We aren't trying to be a big showroom with lights; we just sell the stone that people need for their houses. It’s hard work on the back, but seeing a finished pile of polished slabs feels alright at the end of the shift. Most days we are covered in dust from head to toe.
