Natural stones are undeniably unique in their own ways, both aesthetically and structurally. Each type of natural stone boasts its own set of defining characteristics, making it truly one-of-a-kind. However, it’s important to note that natural stones are also porous, with varying degrees of porosity depending on the specific stone. This can have an impact on the stone’s structural integrity and overall appearance, particularly when considering daily usage.
At Precision Stone Works, we take slab matching very seriously when working on a project. We understand that even slabs from the same lot can vary in color and shade, as natural stone is truly a unique material. Despite this, we strive to achieve the best possible color-matching results, particularly when working with seams.
One of the many reasons that people choose natural stone for their countertops is because it allows them to bring the beauty of God’s creation into their homes. However, it’s important to care for natural stone properly to ensure its longevity and functionality. Precision Stone Works recommends sealing any natural stone every 6 months to 1 year for better protection against staining. Some stones may require more frequent sealing, depending on the homeowner’s usage and daily care methods. It’s important to note that sealing natural stone does not prevent against etching.
In conclusion, natural stone is a stunning and unique material that can add value and beauty to any project. However, it’s important to understand the characteristics of natural stone and care for it properly to ensure its longevity and beauty. At Precision Stone Works, we are committed to providing the highest quality natural stone products and services to our clients, and we look forward to helping you achieve your vision.
