Durable and Resistant Slate Floors Can Be Installed Anywhere


More from the Tiling and Flooring Gallery

Are you looking for an attractive and durable material to cover your flooring? There are many choices when it comes to flooring, and it helps to have a basic idea about each before making your selection. Stone tiles are a favorite for home décor, both inside and out. A simply breathtaking option is the rustic slate stone.

What Is Slate?

Slate is a natural stone mined from the earth that consists of small clay and silt particles that have bonded together under high heat. It is extremely durable and resistant to moisture, making it a popular material for front entrances, kitchens, bathrooms, roofs, and sunrooms. It can essentially be used wherever you want to put it!

Types of Slate

Slate comes either honed, sanded, or simply left in its natural state. It has a slightly rough surface, which makes it an excellent choice for flooring. Even though a natural rock, it amazingly comes in multiple beautiful colors including reds, browns, blacks, greens, and maroons. It comes in all different shapes, and you can mix and match them in any pattern you like. As you can see by these images, slate can vary greatly in appearance and create multiple stunning patterns.

A Wise Investment

Slate is a very durable material, but you can still protect it with a clear sealant. If you are looking for a classy way to upgrade your home, slate tiles are a material that will last for many years. Instead of other materials that are more prone to wear and tear, investing in slate will be a wise investment.

Here is what has been said about our Tiling and Flooring Contractors:

I would like to say a few words of praise concerning Mark with Pyne Construction. Mark Pyne came through for us when no one else would. We were in a situation where we needed to sell my mothers home and had a bundle of construction issues that most contractors couldn't bother with. He not only took the work on but gave us Top Notch quality to boot. I would not hesitate to work with him again and I recommend him to anyone who has a project that requires quality and prompt attention.

This is just a quick note to thank you for your excellent work on my new bathroom. The custom shower is exactly what I wanted, and the remodeling utilizes the limited space perfectly. Again, thanks.
