GRANITE is an important structural and decorative stone. It’s used for immense structural work due to its high compressive strength and durability. It is the hardest structural stone. Granite’s rich colors, stiffness and density, make it an ideal choice for flooring, counter tops, vanities as well as exterior applications. Many stylish patterns and colors make granite the most versatile and trendy of all stones. It is also a very low-maintenance stone. Granite is composed of quartz, feldspars, micas and other minerals. These minerals contribute to the color and texture of the granite stones. Granites get their wonderful variety of colors and patterns from minerals that are melted into the liquid mass as it is formed..
MARBLE has been valued for thousands of years for its rich palette of beautiful colors and appearance and is perfect, pretty much anywhere in the house. Marble stones consist of limestone that has undergone heat and pressure. A transformation process takes place when the weight of overlying material, pressure from crystal collisions and heat from the earth's core generate temperatures in excess of 1800ºF.Texture of marble depends on the form, size and uniformity of grains. The element components of marble determine the color of the stone. Generally calcite and dolomite marbles are of pure white color. Variations of whiteness of pure marbles are due to the mixture of foreign substances. Such impurities form streaks and clouds.
TRAVERTINE is generally used for floors, walls, countertops and for outside as cladding and pavement. Travertine is generally filled with grout before it is honed or polished, which produces a uniform surface more like other marbles. Unfilled travertine is also quite beautiful, and is often seen as exterior surfaces of buildings. Travertine stones result from hot spring water penetrating up through underground limestone. When the water evaporates, it leaves behind layers of dissolved limestone and other minerals, giving it its banded appearance. Travertine stones are generally light-colored beiges and tans.
LIMESTONE The soft limestone stones are ideal for today's more casual and comfortable environments. Generally these soft beiges and tans are suitable for bathrooms, fireplaces, counters and floors. Limestone is a sedimentary rock that is formed at the bottom of lakes and seas, as organic matters settle to the bottom. As more and more layers build up over thousands and millions of years, adding more and more weight, the heat and pressure cause chemical reactions to take place to harden the sediments into solid stone.
SLATE The lively colors and unique texture make slates appropriate for interior as well as exterior applications. Slate is formed of compressed layers of sediments formed under ocean. Since it is formed in layers, it can easily be split to expose beautifully textured surfaces. The usual colors of slates are earthy browns, beiges, yellows, black, dark-grays, and greenish-gray, pinks, purples and copper are also found. They usually exhibit lot of variations even in the same quarry. Slates are used for flooring, cladding and landscaping.
SANDSTONE Sandstone consists of sand covered by silica, iron and lime. Cementing material determines the color of sandstone, iron sandstones are reddish, brownish; carbonaceous, black; siliceous, white and argillaceous, earthy to buff. The hardness of sandstones is important in deciding suitability for applications for sandstone.
QUARTZITE stones are the same with slates, but with higher content of quartz in them, which gives them, a bright texture. They are very similar to slates. Like slates, quartzites are used for various applications depending on their hardness.
There are many different types of stones, and many different types of structures, but the best stonework has a purpose.

So you may be wondering what is so special about this rock used to build Stone
Contractors. Flagstone is a classification of rock called sedimentary rocks.
Wikipedia describes this type of rock as: “A certain kind of rock that is
created through the process of sedimentation. It is made up of material on the
surface of the earth as well as within bodies of water. Flagstone pathways with
some space in between them tend to be just as interesting as the solid ones. It
is possible to space them in whatever way you choose, either you want them to be
spaced nearer alongside one another or further apart. Stone Contractors have
been used for years to upgrade the look of homes. Many people are misinformed on
exactly what flagstone is and they actually thing it is a alternative name for
the word paving. This is not the case at all, in fact it is something much
different than just traditional concrete. Flagstones are a type of flat stones
that is commonly used for laying down as a walkway or path. All you need is just
a little creativity. What is great with this is that you can have the turf and
the plants grow between the natural flagstones, having a gorgeous path where
it’s going to appear to be you’re strolling through the foliage without harming
the plants.
Whether you’re building a pool deck or making a walkway, laying flagstone would
be a gorgeous yet good investment into your property.
For Building Stone Contractors
The most common method to building a flagstone patio is to combine
flagstone patio flagstone with cement or grout. This allows you to put
down a layer of cement or grout and then in lay the pieces of flagstone
so there are gaps in between the stones. This makes it easier so you
don’t have to perfectly line up all the stones like a puzzle, which can
be quite hard and expensive to do. However the Stone Mason is more
costly as compare to other means and methods used for exterior walls.
Still there are many home owners who prefer and like to use Stone Mason
as it takes the expenses once and becomes secure for lifetime or longer
period of time. Most people do opt for laying flagstone in its natural
form since you find the stones in unique shapes and when installed in a
certain area it can look quite amazing when it all comes together. It’s
uniqueness is what draws certain people to it as a building block rather
than more traditional forms of material like bricks and concrete. The
ease of using it without concrete is also a great benefit compared to
working with other stones and bricks. The strength and the durability of
the Stone Mason allow many homeowners to use Stone Mason for their home.
The use of older Stone Mason is also a very durable deal to do for the
home. For example the older Romans and Greek constructions still exist
as they have Stone Mason on their walls. The use of Stone Mason makes
the walls very attractive and beautiful.
Another reason flagstone is great for patios or pathways is because it is so smooth. This makes it have a great feel so if you are walking around on it bear foot you don’t have to worry about scraping and cutting your feet. It’s also great around a pool because it absorbs the heat very well and you can lay out on it and it feels like you are laying on a hot plate.
