Choosing the Right Floor: Part 6 of 6

Our final installment of Choosing the Right Floor features Natural Stone Flooring:




Granite, Marble, and Terrazzo.

Marble and granite are more widely used in the countries of the Middle East, Greece, and Italy than in the United States. Both materials have prestigious connotations and are primarily used in banks and foyers of commercial buildings and some custom dwellings.

Terrazzo is a relative newcomer to the American domestic scene. It has been popular in Mediterranean countries from early times. Terrazzo is an aggregate of marble or granite chips mixed in a cement mortar and either laid in place of as slab or tiles. The mix is expensive in the United States and requires professional installation.
