Sri Shantinath Marbles

Out here in Uppal, right behind the Musi River, you will find our yard. We are at Survey No 365/3 in Bhagyathnagar. It is a bit of a trek for some, but it is a good spot for keeping our marble slabs. The river breeze comes through sometimes, which is nice when we are hauling heavy stone around all day. We start early in the morning because the sun can get really strong in this part of town. Most of what we do involves moving marble from the stacks to the trucks. It is physical labor and there is always plenty of dust in the air. We don't have a big corporate office or anything like that. We just have a small space where we sit and talk to customers who wander in. Most people find us through word of mouth or because they saw our sign near the river. We just show them the marble we have and tell them how much it costs. Each slab is different, so we spend a lot of time walking around the yard so they can pick the one they like. We have been in this spot for years and have seen Uppal grow quite a bit. Even with all the changes, we just keep doing what we do. It is a quiet life for the most part, just us and the stone and the daily work of running a yard. We don't mind the heavy lifting because it is what we have always done. When a customer is happy with the slabs, it makes the work worth it.
