Are you planning a bathroom renovation? If yes, then know this that you are making a very valuable investment to your home as well as your lifestyle. A renovated bathroom is always worth all the time and money spent and you can add more to your bathroom by using stone pieces which will completely transform your bathroom space into something spectacular and stunning. Whether it’s your bathtub surround or your vanity countertops – you can never go wrong with stone pieces. Stones come in single large slabs and hence, the major benefit of using a stone is that you won’t be facing any issues related to grout lines or mild dew when compared to the tiles installation. Moreover, when it comes to the appearance nothing can beat the beauty and lustre of a stone. If you are looking to just add something striking to your bathroom space or want to add value to your home then stone pieces are what you should be going for. Let’s look at some popular stone choices which you can make for your bathroom space:
Marble:
Marble is probably the most eye-catching natural stone out there and will give your bathroom the most incredible look you can ever think of. Marble stone comes with kaleidoscopic colors from faint pinks to rich blues to striking browns and blacks. Yes, these stones are expensive and are more prone to stains and spots (maybe more than its counterparts) but when treated with care can exclude the staining problem completely. For extra preventive measures what you can do is apply a silicon sealer on the surface of the marble on a regular basis so as to protect the stone from permanent damage.
Granite:
Granite is perhaps the most expensive natural stone and an extremely popular choice for countertops. Granite stone is very durable and its rich swirl variations and patterns are what makes this stone extra spectacular. Just like marble, you have to coat the surface with a sealant to protect the stone against stains, water, and soap suds from penetrating the stone. Also, as granite comes in large single slabs you wouldn’t have to worry about sealing any seams. This stone is available in an extensive range of colors and patterns and will compliment a small as well as spacious bathroom space. If you have a small bathroom you can use light colored granites to make it appear roomy and if you have a big bathroom then you can add wonders to your bathroom space with dark-colored granites.
Quartz:
Unlike marble and granite, quartz stone is not something that is extracted as large slabs. They are fabricated by crushing and mixing natural quartz with resin and then transferring them into large sheets. Even though they are fabricated they are as durable as granites and are also available in plenty of color options that you can ever come up with. If you are looking for a stand out piece then quartz is your answer and the best thing about this stone is it requires less maintenance than its counterparts.
Hence, these were some stone options which you can consider for your bathroom space and there are many Bathroom Remodeling Service providers which would also help you in picking out the right stone for your bathroom.
