Natural Stone Materials for Your Home

---

Marble is a classic choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and interiors, often rivaling other materials like granite and quartzite. The natural veining of marble ensures that no two stones are identical, making it a unique option. Whether you’re looking for a kitchen worktop or a bathroom vanity, this elegant material stands out among alternatives like onyx and travertine limestone. 

With its high heat tolerance, marble is perfect for kitchen work surfaces, capable of withstanding heat from pots and pans. However, it’s essential to handle heavy kitchen items with care, as marble can chip if impacted by dropped objects. Additionally, make sure to quickly wipe up any spills from acidic or richly colored foods to maintain its beauty. 

Our marble typically comes in thicknesses of 20 to 30 millimeters and can be installed within 2-3 weeks. We seal our marble to help prevent staining and also offer a resealing service for marble that has already been installed.

Quartzite boasts a hardness that rivals granite while offering the luxe appearance of marble. Its resistance to scratches and heat, along with being a more stain-resistant alternative, ensures it stands the test of time, making it the perfect fusion of functionality and sophistication for any high-end space. Additionally, when compared to onyx and travertine limestone, quartzite holds its own in both beauty and durability. 

For thousands of years, quartzite has been used as a decorative stone, and it’s not hard to see why. With its variety of colors, ranging from blue to gold, and its varied grains from subtle to dramatic, quartzite could be the key element your interior needs to stand out and elevate your project.

Our quartzite is sustainably sourced, and while it sits at a premium price point, it can last for decades, maintaining its stunning appearance if properly cared for.

Travertine and limestone are timeless natural stones, highly valued for their warmth, character, and subtle movement. Formed by mineral deposits from natural springs, these stones exhibit a soft, earthy palette with gentle tonal variation that adds depth to a space without overwhelming it. While granite, marble, and onyx are often sought after for their durability, travertine and limestone offer a unique aesthetic appeal. Their naturally porous structure provides a distinctive texture, which can be honed and filled for a smoother, more contemporary finish or left more open for a rustic feel. It's important to note that limestone requires sealing to protect against staining and water absorption. As it is softer than some other natural stones like granite or quartzite, limestone may scratch or chip a little more easily.

Granite is a hard, durable stone that serves as one of our most hardwearing options. Unlike our other materials like marble, onyx, quartzite, and travertine limestone, granite is formed of a crystalline mineral structure, which means it is very hard to chip, break, or permeate with moisture. Granite boasts a very high heat tolerance, making it perfect for kitchen work surfaces as it can withstand heat from pots and pans. We hold stock of polished (shine), leathered (textured), and honed (matte) granite.

Onyx is known for its unique banded pattern and subtle colours, giving it an exotic and high-end aesthetic comparable to that of marble and granite. You can use onyx to create surfaces and features that result in an interior that is unique, luxurious, and above all practical, much like those crafted from quartzite or travertine limestone. 

Onyx is lightweight, durable, and heat resistant, making it a smart investment that can elevate your property’s value. Additionally, onyx possesses a unique translucent property, allowing it to be backlit for a stunning effect that rivals other natural stones.

The material is sought after for its uniformity and long-lasting durability, thanks to its mix of natural materials and strengthening resin. As an eco-friendly choice, it boasts a low-impact mining and manufacturing process. This premium-looking stone, whether you choose quartz, granite, marble, onyx, quartzite, or travertine limestone, is sure to elevate the value of your property while also being easily acquired and flexible in pricing. 

Formed from ancient crystalline structures, quartz is a stone that can withstand moderate heat levels, making it both strong and beautiful. Similar to granite and marble, it resists weathering and the cultivation of bacteria due to its hardness and comes in a variety of subtle colors and grains, akin to onyx and travertine limestone. 

We provide quartz in thicknesses from 20 to 30mm, and we have a huge selection in our showroom that includes options like granite and quartzite that we can send out to you.
