There are several different types of natural stone which can be used in both residential and commercial applications. Stone products can be used for a variety of surfaces including floors, countertops, walls and fireplace areas.

As each type of stone has different levels of hardness, not all stones are suitable for all types of applications.There is nothing quite like the beauty of natural stone. However it is important to keep in mind that it will require maintenance that ceramic and porcelain products will not. Regularly sealing stone products is a must for retaining color. It is also important to remember that samples of stone may differ slightly from shipment to shipment in color and veining. The sample you see in the showroom will not necessarily be the same color as the product you receive. It is important to appreciate stone for what it is; each piece being truly unique.
