NATURAL STONE
- Natural stone tiles (marble, granite, limestone, slate, onyx, travertine) are beautiful because they are natural. Additionally, they are less uniform in color, size, thickness, and texture. They can be highly variegated depending on the quarry they were cut from.
- Tends to be porous, and you are, required to seal the tile prior to grouting and periodically reapplying the sealant (once or twice a year depending on the type of stone and where it has been installed).
- Some natural stone tiles are softer than others and can be prone to scratching.
- Care should be taken as to where and how they are used.
