Natural stone is one of the most enduring investments in a home. Marble countertops, travertine floors, stone showers, fireplace surrounds — each surface has distinct properties and distinct restoration needs. We work with all of them.

Marble — Metamorphic · Calcareous
Marble
The classic luxury stone — recrystallized limestone with distinctive veining. Beautiful, soft, and highly vulnerable to acid etching from wine, citrus, and cleaners.

Granite — Igneous · Siliceous
Granite
One of the hardest and most durable natural stones. Highly resistant to heat, scratching, and etching — but still porous and benefits from proper sealing.

Quartzite — Metamorphic · Siliceous
Quartzite
A hard, dense metamorphic stone that looks like marble but performs like granite. The high-performance choice for kitchens where beauty and durability both matter.

Travertine — Sedimentary · Calcareous
Travertine
Warm, honey-toned limestone formed by hot springs. Its natural pitting gives it character but also creates cleaning and sealing challenges.

Limestone — Sedimentary · Calcareous
Limestone
Soft, matte, and earthy — a sedimentary stone with subtle beauty. Highly porous and etch-prone, requiring diligent sealing and gentle care.

Slate — Metamorphic · Siliceous
Slate
Fine-grained metamorphic stone with a natural cleft texture. Durable, dense, and low-maintenance, with distinctive layered appearance.
Floors · Entryways · Roofing · Wet Areas

Dolomite — Sedimentary · Calcareous
Dolomite
Marble-like appearance with slightly better durability due to magnesium content. Often marketed as an alternative to soft marble in high-use spaces.

Engineered stone composed of ~93% natural quartz bound with resin. Non-porous, highly resistant, and low-maintenance — a fabricated alternative to natural stone.

Soapstone — Metamorphic · Talc-Based
Soapstone
Soft, dense metamorphic stone with a distinctive smooth feel. Naturally non-porous, heat-resistant, and unique for developing a rich patina over time.

Sandstone — Sedimentary · Siliceous
Sandstone
Grainy sedimentary stone formed from compressed sand and mineral particles. Highly porous and requires strong sealing for exterior and wet applications.
