Marble floors make a statement to anyone that sees them. Although marble has been used for hundreds of years in flooring, today’s products are unique in their design.

Natural stone is not only an attractive option for your home’s textures, but it is also a very practical choice. Choosing the right type of stone for your home is the more difficult decision. The only reason it is difficult is because there are several good options to consider. When looking at each of these, determine which is going to give you the best look for the area, the best durability as well as be the best for your budget.
Bathroom Renovation
One of the best overall products for the bathroom renovation will be marble. Your marble installer can design custom flooring for you. Marble adds a great look and value to the space. Yet, marble damages if it is not installed properly, or if not taken care of. Other options for flooring include travertine and limestone, though both are softer natural stones.
Glass Tiles
Glass tiles are some of the most unique elements you can add to your bathroom renovation or your kitchen renovation. While it may not seem like it, glass tiles are very durable and they are easy to maintain. You will want to have them professionally installed to insure durability. Installing glass tiles is difficult only because it needs to be done just right to give the right image.

Limestone
Limestone is a very unique natural stone. It does work in many homes. When used, it creates a very peaceful, serene environment because of its natural beauty but soft appearance. It is also very neutral and works well in virtually any design it is placed in.
Travertine
Travertine became one of the most sought after luxury types of products to be used in homes. This is so because of the look that it offers to the home. Travertine is very delicate and soft wherever it is placed. It helps to create the illusion of more space, too. For example, purchasing some types of travertine will give you that natural stone look of classic tumbled stone. A variety of finishes and colors give you flexibility to use it throughout your décor.
Ceramic Tile Installation
Often, questions are asked about ceramic installation. Should you attempt to do this type of project on your own? Ceramic tile is a great medium to use, and has plenty of applications within a home or business.

Hiring Marble and Tile Installers
When it comes to hiring marble and tile installers, you’ll be thankful you did. While some tile projects can be handled by the weekend warrior with a bit of handy skill, most tiling jobs require more than simply laying down the tiles in even rows. Walls often are uneven, tiles need to be cut and, if one slips out of place just a little, it will stick out like a sore thumb. For all these reasons, you need marble and tile installers.
"Clay and his team did an excellent job installing our tile backsplash in our kitchen. Clay referred us to a design center where we could get some expert help picking out our tile. When it came time to begin the work, he was very patient with me as we laid out the plan for how the tile would be placed. The work was completed on time and with great customer service. I highly recommend Carolina Tile and Stoneworks." 
Carolina Tile and Stoneworks tiled my two bathrooms and the kitchen floor for a larger renovation project I was having done on my older home. They did this work in two parts for me. They did the shower surround really well and they worked with me on how to get the threshold right. They made really good suggestions on how to make the project look better. On the original design, Clay made some suggestions on how to make the tile look better, as far as installing it diagonally, putting brick with it, etc. They did a really good job doing the tile for the bathtub surrounds and shower surround; waterproofing it correctly. I would use them again for future work. I even referred them to some friends as well.
We were very pleased with the work that Carolina Tile and Stoneworks did in our master bathroom, guest bathroom, and laundry room. The craftsmanship was top notch and the team they had working for us was very professional and reliable. This is the second job Carolina Tile and Stoneworks has done for us, and we would definitely recommend them to our family and friends.
