Why Expert Installation Matters

Natural stone requires specialized knowledge and techniques that differ from ceramic or porcelain tile. Improper installation can lead to cracking, staining, and costly damage.

Proper Substrate Preparation

Natural stone requires perfectly flat, stable substrates to prevent cracking.

Correct Setting Materials

Stone requires specific mortars—white thinset for marble, epoxy for green marble, etc.

Proper Sealing

Pre-sealing, setting, and final sealing protect your investment for years.

Pattern Matching

We carefully plan layouts to ensure natural veining flows beautifully.
