Architectural Stone: Making Spaces and items Visually Appealing and Durable

“Stone” is a hard solid nonmetallic mineral matter of which specific types are typically used as building materials.

In past eras, prestigious buildings were known for using rare marble and intricate stone applications. They were constructed to convey a sense of power and success. Artisans would build grand lobbies to showcase a building.

Today, with the advent of dimensional stone – i.e., a stone that has been cut and shaped to specific sizes or shapes for construction or architectural applications — its use has become more ubiquitous due to its relative affordability. Their use can range from lobby floors, where they are visually inviting standing up to wear and tear, to countertops and more, making them aesthetically pleasing and durable for regular use.

We Do Them All: Marble, Granite, Terrazzo and more!

If it is a variety of stone — no matter what type — used in architecture or construction, Stuart Dean is at hand to restore and maintain it.

Buildings of yesteryear — with imposing structures to show wealth and stability – will undoubtedly have suffered from the deleterious inevitability of use and exposure to the elements and losing their luster over time. Our artisans can help restore them to their near-original splendor.

With newer buildings, using appropriate methods of grinding (with diamond abrasives), honing, polishing, and crystallization, among others, we can restore them to their original look after they have dulled over time.
