Since every slab of natural stone is completely unique, we recommend visiting one of our facilities to see slab patterns and variations in person.

Where does your material come from?

At marble.com we source our stone only from the most reputable quarries from around the globe, including those from Italy, Spain, Brazil, and India.

Why is some stone more expensive than others?

Stone slabs that are extremely rare and boast unique colors tend to be more expensive than commonly found stone.

We do recommend sealing natural stone countertops periodically, the frequency of sealing the stone depends on the material.

A honed stone finish refers to the smooth, matte surface of the material, which creates a visibly lighter and softer tone. While honed finish might be an ideal design choice for some homeowners, it also makes the stone more susceptible to staining and etching.

Most chips, smaller than a dime in diameter, can be repaired by the homeowner using a chip repair kit. We do recommend professional service care for larger chips.
