Stone Flooring

Premier Alexandria Stone Installation From Top Industry Professionals


Stone flooring is a natural material that can add elegance and sophistication to your home. However, it is also tough to install correctly because of the many variables involved in laying stone floors.

When choosing a stone for your floor, knowing what you're getting into when installing the product yourself is essential. Stone floors have varying degrees of hardness that require various tools and techniques during installation. If you’re looking for professional stone floor installation in Alexandria, Footprints Floors has what you need. Our expert flooring installers will also take care of prep and cleanup to provide your home with beautiful new stone floors!

What is Stone Flooring?

Stone flooring may be a good choice for those who prefer an earthy feel. One can choose from many stone flooring types, including limestone, travertine, granite, marble and slate. The characteristics of those options will vary with each choice.

Limestone


Limestone flooring is a type of stone flooring that can be found in many modern-day residences. This type of stone flooring is not only popular, but also has many benefits. Limestone floors are one of the most durable types of materials due to their tough and heavy characteristics.

Limestone floors can hold up against scratches and spills, which means they do not need to be refinished as often as other materials.

Travertine


Travertine flooring is made of limestone that has been compacted and cemented together. Travertine comes in various colors, from tan, to brown, to black, each with unique characteristics.

Travertine can be challenging to install on your own due to the weight of the stone and the fact that it may not adhere if not correctly pressed down onto a surface. Travertine flooring will have a natural feel, as all the color variations come from natural impurities in the stone's formation.

Granite


Granite is an igneous rock that has formed over millions of years by the cooling and solidifying magma below Earth's surface. It is one of the hardest natural materials known to man. Granite's physical characteristics make it preferable for flooring as it has a uniform grain and texture, making each slab naturally easy to split into slabs.

The uniformity of granite also means that there are rarely any surprises with the final product because every piece will look similar to its neighbors.

Granite flooring is resistant to heat, water, scratches and stains, making it great for kitchens and bathrooms where spills are common. It is also very durable, so the stone can be used in areas with heavy traffic such as hallways or foyers without wearing down or becoming damaged easily. The surface of granite has a low porosity which makes it resistant to dirt buildup.

Marble


Marble is a metamorphic rock of mineral aggregate, with variable hardness and a high natural polish. It can be used as a cheaper alternative to granite flooring.

Marble slabs are generally more economical than granite slabs. Although marble slabs have a glossy appearance, they may have a slight sheen or texture that makes them less desirable for high-traffic areas at first glance. Still, marble slabs offer many of the same benefits as granite slabs with less expense involved.

Slate


Slate flooring is a type of stone that is found in metamorphic rocks. Slate is mined from the earth and then worked to create versatile flooring options for different applications. Slate can be polished to have a high sheen, matte finish — or somewhere in between. There are also textured slates available for those who want a more rustic look without the additional cost of installation.

What Rooms in Your Home are Appropriate for
Stone Flooring?

Stone flooring will add an organic touch to a room and also give off a feeling of luxury and wealth. Stone floors may be ideal for living rooms, studies or dining rooms, but they can be used in foyers and hallways as well. The material is heavy and durable, suitable for any high-traffic area that may get lots of wear and tear.

How to Install
Stone Flooring

Stone floor installation should be professionally completed by a Footprints Floors specialist, as it can be difficult without the proper equipment and experience.

For the best results, the stone should be installed over plywood or concrete for stability and ease of installation. The type of adhesive used will depend on what type of stone flooring is being installed and the desired result.

Stone Flooring
Cleaning and Maintenance

Stone floors may be susceptible to scratches, chemicals and oils, which can leave residue behind, so special care must be taken when spills occur. Spills should be cleaned up quickly to avoid leaving an unsightly mark on the floor. It is recommended that professional cleaning and polishing the stone be done every six months and after any spills to keep it looking shiny and new. Stone floors can last up to 30 years before needing an update.

Stone flooring is a unique choice for those who want a strong, organic element in their home or office space. Proper installation is vital to the longevity of the product and should be performed by a professional, like those at Footprints Floors.

What Our Customers Say

Jared and the Footprint Floors team did such a phenomenal job taking care of our floor replacement in our basement. Jared made sure the job was done on time and helped facilitate a number of things to help us decide on floor style. He also got our drywall and paint on the walls taken care of. We couldn’t recommend Floorprint higher. The quality is great and we are so happy with our new room!
Kasey Smith 03/25/24 — google
I'm really pleased! Jared was very easy and thoughtful to work with, and my kitchen flooring result is exactly what I hoped for. He presented a professional contract quickly after our in home discussion, and the work was completed promptly.
Stephanie Bianco 03/21/24 — google
Great service Jared and his team were great to work with.
Jacob Patterson 03/5/24 — google
Highly recommend the company and its services. Jared was extremely helpful in providing suggestions for me in order to cut costs but still accomplish my goal. He took his time assessing some issues in my floors and took the time to have an additional person come out for a consultation. The consult and two full days work were done within a week- I could not be happier. Highly recommend and will likely use again when I’m ready to do other work with the rest of my floors!

Love our "new" floors! Working with Jared and his team has been a great experience, from start to finish. He is responsive, reliable and provided quality workmanship. He spent time with us to talk about our color selection and finishes. We highly reccomend Footprints Floors.

Amber's professionalism and expertise were fantastic. We ended up going in another direction (unfortunately the quote was a bit too high for us!) but we really appreciated how thoughtful and knowledgeable Amber was!

Phillip took great care in completing the restoration of my 80 year old parquet floors despite the nearly 6 month delay in the middle of the project. I’m thrilled to finally have my floors looking their best and ready to last for many years to come.
Jacob Wiggins 02/6/23 — google
Great experience working with Amber at Footprints Floors. We were referred to them via Floor and Decor’s design service. We completely replaced all tile and fixtures in two bathrooms. Footprints completed both bathrooms in just under two weeks and with high quality. Amber was also a pleasure to work with and incredibly helpful in ensuring we had the right materials for the job.

Amber was quick in replying to my request for an estimate. She came out to my house within a few days of my request and provided a very thorough estimate. She was very professional and pleasant to work with.

Phillip was very professional and great to work with. He made sure to have professional contractors come out to install the wood flooring. They were very efficient and everything looks great. I would use footprint flooring again for another project
Jonathan Bernstein 10/26/22 — google
Philip and his team did a great job with our basement floor update! We’ll definitely be using them in the future for any updates we need!
Emily Howard 10/10/22 — google
Working with Phil and Dan was a positive and friendly experience! We had the carpet in our entire upstairs replaced with hardwood and are thrilled with how beautifully it turned out. We got several quotes and felt Footprints provided the best value. They made themselves available for communication at all times and ultimately sent us a team that did really excellent work, quickly. My husband and I especially appreciated the feedback we got during the planning stages that saved us money and kept our interests in mind rather than Footprints just trying to make as much money off of us as possible. We'll certainly use them again if we have any other floor installations.
