Marble, travertine, slate, and limestone done properly
Natural stone is one of the most beautiful floors you can install and one of the most demanding to install correctly. Every stone reacts differently to mortar, sealers, and the saw, and a stone job done wrong will haunt the home for decades. Ohio Carpet and Flooring installs natural stone across Greater Columbus, working with marble, travertine, slate, limestone, and granite.
We supply premium-grade stone from quarries we trust, and we won't install bargain-bin stone that's prone to spalling, pitting, or breaking under foot traffic. If maintenance-free is more important than the real thing, our porcelain tile page covers stone-look porcelain instead.
Choosing the right stone for the room
Each stone has its strengths. The right choice depends on where it's going, how much traffic it sees, and how much maintenance you're willing to do, and stone works well on wall applications too, not just floors.
- Marble, timeless luxury for bathrooms and feature areas; needs sealing and gentle cleaners
- Travertine, warm earth tones, slightly porous; ideal for entries, sunrooms, and patios
- Slate, rugged and slip-resistant; perfect for mudrooms, kitchens, and outdoor walks
- Limestone, soft matte finish, classic European look; bathrooms and powder rooms
- Granite, hardest stone available; high-traffic floors and outdoor commercial spaces
Sealing, honing, and lifetime care
Natural stone needs to be sealed at installation and re-sealed every 1-3 years (we'll tell you the schedule for your specific stone). We use premium impregnating sealers that don't change the stone's color or finish, just block out moisture and oils.
Stone can also be re-honed or re-polished if it ever scratches or dulls. On-site stone restoration is a service most flooring companies don't offer, we do it, so your investment lasts the life of the home. Request a free estimate and we'll walk you through sealing and care during the visit.

Natural Stone Tile - frequently asked questions
Yes, except dense granite, all natural stones are porous and will stain without a sealer. We seal on installation day and recommend a refresh every 1-3 years depending on traffic.
Honest answer: marble etches from acidic liquids (lemon, vinegar, wine). Most homeowners love the patina that develops, but if you want it to look new forever, our porcelain tile page covers a marble-look alternative instead.
Absolutely, stone is one of the best materials for radiant heat because it holds and conducts heat exceptionally well. We install electric mat systems under most of our stone floors.
We keep a record of every stone we install and where it was sourced. In most cases we can match the original stone for a single-tile replacement.
