Natural Stone in Nashville, Tennessee
Marble, travertine, slate and quartzite set and sealed, with the veining dry-laid and agreed before it is fixed.
Nashville's Tile and Stone connects homeowners across Middle Tennessee with licensed, insured tile contractors for natural stone. Estimates are free and written, the price is agreed before work starts, and the workmanship is backed in writing.
What the job usually involves
Every property is different, which is why the estimate comes after somebody has actually looked at it rather than before. What does not change is the process: assess, explain the options in plain language, put the scope and price in writing, then do the work to that scope.

Natural Stone, in practice
Natural stone is beautiful and unforgiving. It stains, it etches, it varies piece to piece, and none of that is a defect — it is the material. Anyone selling it as low maintenance is misleading you.
Veining is laid out dry and agreed before anything is fixed. Stone is not uniform, and the difference between a considered layout and a random one is the difference between a feature and a mess.
Light stone needs white setting material. Grey thinset shows through marble and travertine as a shadow, and it cannot be undone once it has cured.
Sealing is a maintenance item rather than a one-off. Marble and travertine will stain from wine, oil, citrus and a good deal else, and the seal wears. We tell you the interval and which cleaners will strip it.
