Entrance platform - Laying a 1x2 m granite slab - What should you pay attention to?

100x200x3 = 60,000 cubic centimeters

So if 3cm thickness is enough.

At 3g/cm^3 this thing weighs a cool 180kg... sporty and delicate work.

Here, I would look for a stonemason rather than a landscape gardener for something like this. The sheer size of the slab alone means the pleasure won’t be cheap.

Around Kaarst, I know exactly one manufacturer who would do this professionally and cleanly.

To the cemetery, ask the one who makes the gravestones, he has done something like that many times. There are lying gravestones with granite slab covering.

You get the slab best from the natural stone wholesaler. There are plenty there, you can choose something. Delivery time is probably a bit longer because of cutting and possibly surface treatment. It costs you between 200 and 300 euros, with your own trailer the transport will be cheap. Laying it itself is not rocket science.

To the cemetery, ask the one who makes gravestones, he has done that kind of thing often. There are flat gravestones with granite slab coverings.

A stonemason.

1. I am not married 2. nobody needs to feel sorry for you 3. he also has no interest in the joint look 4. garden and landscaping companies are involved, who unfortunately have not yet been able to make any commitments (despite repeated inquiries) 5. it says in the original question that I would look for a stonemason if in doubt

it would be nice if you could say something about the original question or otherwise hold back.

as said, whether man / female partner / partner.

Do it yourself is not an option if you already don’t like joints. Doing it alone also means a certain tolerance for unevenness. I wouldn't want to install such a huge object without prior knowledge and heavy equipment^^

as said, Prodi take over

stonemason

That's how I would do it in a DIY manner.

That almost makes you want to cook it as you described.

or alternatively look for a stonemason...

Why "alternatively"? - the stonemason would clearly be my first choice.
