Natural stone is more than just a building material; it is a legacy. Stone remains the gold standard for elegance and durability to this day. However, the beauty of a raw slab is only as good as the hands that shape it.
At Old Stone Tile And Marble Works Corp., we specialize in bridging the gap between nature’s raw beauty and your architectural vision. With decades of expertise in fabrication, installation, and restoration, our team guarantees that every grain and vein is showcased to its fullest potential.
1. The Versatility of the Old Stone Inventory
Choosing the right material is the foundation of any successful project. At Old Stone Tile And Marble Works Corp., our consultants guide you through the physical properties of various stones to make sure your selection matches your lifestyle.
Marble: The Epitome of Elegance
Marble is the go-to for those seeking a classic, high-end aesthetic. Known for its soft “glow” and distinctive veining, it is a favorite for bathroom vanities and grand entryways. Our artisans at Old Stone are experts in book-matching, a technique where two mirror-image slabs are joined to create a breathtaking symmetrical pattern.
Granite: Unmatched Durability
For kitchens that see heavy use, granite countertops on Long Island are king. Granite is a volcanic rock formed under extreme heat and pressure, making it incredibly resistant to scratches and thermal shock. Old Stone Tile And Marble Works Corp. offers custom edge profiles for granite, from the sleek “pencil” edge to the elaborate “waterfall” finish.
Quartzite and Engineered Stone
While quartzite offers the look of marble with the hardness of granite, engineered quartz provides a non-porous, low-maintenance alternative. Our fabrication shop uses state-of-the-art CNC technology to ensure even the hardest quartzites are cut with surgical precision, while also enabling intricate custom edging and profiles when fabricating engineered quartz.
2. The Science of Stone: Why Fabrication Matters
The process of turning a 1,000-pound slab into a perfectly fitted countertop is an exercise in both physics and art. This is where the expertise of Old Stone Tile And Marble Works Corp. truly shines.
Precision Templating
We don’t believe in “standard” sizes. Every home has unique angles and slight wall irregularities. Our team combines decades of expertise with the latest precision equipment to ensure your new countertop fits perfectly; eliminating the need for messy on-site adjustments.
3. Specialized Services: Beyond the Countertop
While many know us for our kitchen work, the scope of Old Stone Tile And Marble Works Corp. extends to every corner of your property.
Custom Fireplace Surrounds
A fireplace is the heart of the living room. We design and install custom stone hearths and mantels that serve as functional pieces of art. Whether you prefer a minimalist slab of soapstone or a carved marble centerpiece, our craftsmen deliver.
Outdoor Living Spaces
As outdoor kitchens become more popular, the demand for weather-resistant stone has spiked. We specialize in selecting and installing stones that can withstand UV exposure and temperature fluctuations without fading or cracking.
Professional Stone Restoration
Has your existing marble lost its luster? Over time, foot traffic and cleaning agents can dull the finish of natural stone. Old Stone Tile And Marble Works Corp. offers in-depth restoration services, including:
- Honing and Polishing: Removing scratches and restoring the original shine.
- Lippage Removal: Leveling uneven floor tiles for a smooth, safe surface.
- Grout Deep Cleaning: Refreshing the lines between your tiles for a brand-new look.
4. The Old Stone Installation Process: What to Expect
Flawless countertop installation on Long Island is a hallmark of our service. We understand that home renovations can be stressful, which is why we have refined our process to be as non-intrusive as possible.
- Selection: You visit our gallery to hand-pick your specific slab.
- Templating: Our technicians visit your site for precise measurements.
- Fabrication: Our shop performs the cuts, edge polishing, and sink cutouts.
- Installation: Our crew handles the heavy lifting, securing the stone and setting the seams.
- Final Inspection: We don’t leave until you have inspected every inch of the work.
5. Maintenance for a Lifetime of Beauty
An investment in stone from Old Stone Tile And Marble Works Corp. is an investment in your property’s value. To keep your surfaces looking pristine, we recommend the following:
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Bleach and ammonia-based cleaners can damage stone sealers. Stick to pH-neutral cleaners specifically formulated for stone.
- Use Coasters and Trivets: While granite is heat-resistant, using trivets protects the sealer from thermal degradation.
- Annual Check-ups: We recommend a professional resealing every 12 to 24 months depending on usage.
