OverviewWhy homeowners choose
Why homeowners choose
Natural Stone (Marble, Limestone).
Marble, limestone, and travertine are quarried stone - cut, honed, and polished into tile. No two pieces match. Veining is the geological record of the slab. Sealed and maintained, a marble floor lasts for centuries; left unsealed, it etches the first time someone spills orange juice on it.
Honed or polished quarried stone. Every piece one-of-a-kind.
Best for: Master baths, foyers, luxury kitchens. Pricing starts at $8.99 / sq ft, with full installed pricing typically in the $11.99 / sq ft installed range.

Three homes where this shines
Adults-only or formal space
Natural Stone (Marble, Limestone) reads as a designer choice - quieter, calmer, more architectural. Best in rooms that don't take daily abuse from kids or pets, where the look and feel matter as much as the spec sheet.
Refreshing the bathroom
You're not ready to renovate the whole house, but the bathroom is looking tired. Natural Stone (Marble, Limestone) drops in over your existing subfloor in 1–3 days, and the room photographs ten years younger before the baseboards are even back on.
Forever floor for a forever home
Natural Stone (Marble, Limestone) is what you install when you don't plan to replace the floor again. Premium materials, longer warranty, higher resale impact. The $11.99 / sq ft installed feels expensive on day one and cheap by year fifteen.

Carrara marble shower in our primary bath. Seven years and one resealing - it still feels like a hotel.

Yes, but…The questions everyone asks
The questions everyone asks
before they sign.
Will marble etch in a kitchen?+
Yes, unavoidably. Lemon juice, vinegar, tomato sauce - they all leave dull spots on polished marble. Honed marble shows etches far less. If you want a marble kitchen, choose honed and budget for periodic resurfacing.
What about a master bath with marble?+
Marble baths age beautifully because they don't see acidic chemicals. Seal annually and they look better in year ten than year one.
Won't Natural Stone (Marble, Limestone) feel cheap or look fake up close?+
Modern manufacturing has closed almost all of that gap. Premium SKUs in this tier use real-wood scans, multi-pass texture, and beveled edges - at conversational distance, most homeowners can't tell. Ask for our top three samples in this category and compare them on your own floor before deciding.
How disruptive is the install?+
Most Natural Stone (Marble, Limestone) jobs finish in 1–3 days per floor. Whole-home installs average 4–7 working days. We sequence rooms so you always have a kitchen and at least one bathroom in service.
What if I don't love it once it's down?+
We bring up to 8 samples to your Free In-home Estimate so you can see the planks/tiles in your own light before we order material. After install, our workmanship warranty covers any defect for the life of the floor - no fine print.
