Materials

Pick a surface.
We will show you slabs.

Six materials, what each one costs you in upkeep, and where each one actually belongs.

Every slab has a personality. A two inch sample tells you the color and nothing about the movement, so come see the real thing in daylight before you commit.

Travertine

The material this shop is known for.

Vein cut travertine slab, run as counters, full height backsplashes, shower walls, floating hearths and carved vanity basins. Warm, matte, and cooler underfoot than almost anything else in an Arizona house.

Upkeep
Sealed periodically
Heat
Good heat tolerance
Best for
Vanities, showers, hearths, backsplashes

Quartzite

Marble drama with much better manners.

Harder than granite in many cases and far less porous than marble. The white quartzite with grey veining shows up across several of these kitchens as waterfall islands and full slab backsplashes.

Upkeep
Sealed yearly
Heat
High heat tolerance
Best for
Islands, waterfall ends, feature walls

Marble

Classic, soft, and it shows a life lived.

Etches from lemon and wine, which is a patina to some people and a dealbreaker to others. Best used somewhere it will be admired more than abused.

Upkeep
Sealed often
Heat
High heat, low stain resistance
Best for
Vanities, fireplaces, feature walls

Natural stone veneer

Texture where a flat surface would be boring.

Stacked and irregular stone for fireplace walls, water features and exterior cladding. Usually paired with a single clean slab so the texture has something to sit against.

Upkeep
Low maintenance
Heat
Exterior rated
Best for
Fireplaces, water features, cladding

Granite

Tough, heat proof, no two slabs alike.

The workhorse for outdoor kitchens and hard use surfaces. Handles direct sun and a hot grill lid without complaining.

Upkeep
Sealed yearly
Heat
Very high heat tolerance
Best for
Outdoor kitchens, bars, laundry

Quartz

Engineered from ground stone and resin, so the slab you see is the slab you get. The practical pick when you want a surface that asks nothing of you.

Upkeep
No sealing
Heat
Moderate heat tolerance
Best for
Kitchens, laundry, kids bathrooms
