Frequently Asked Questions



Contrary to what you might think, natural stone is a great conductor of heat. It should naturally adjust to your room’s temperature but you can add under floor heating if you prefer a cosier effect. 90% of our floors are installed with this. Don’t forget that rugs can enhance all stone flooring, adding colour and texture to your room.

See here for the range of finishes we offer.
