Stone makes for an elegant and luxurious choice for any bathroom – it comes in a variety of options, from natural stone like granite to engineered ones like quartz, and are suited for a range of budgets.
\nMost versions are water-resistant, exceptionally durable, and loaded with luxurious flair. It\u2019s impossible to deny the opulence that natural and engineered stones give off, making them a
\nfavorite for those looking to remodel or construct a modern, spa-like bathroom. Aside from your countertops and walls, there are a number of ways you can use stone in your bathroom.
\nLet\u2019s explore some of them below \u2013<\/p>\n
1.Countertops
\nThe first and most common application of stone in the bathroom is on the countertops. Your countertop can be a statement piece, used to highlight your faucet and bathroom mirror. In fact, in some cases, homeowners start by selecting their countertops and then finish bathroom selections from there. You should look for an easy-to-clean and non-porous stone for this application to ensure your countertops look newer for longer despite frequent use. Caesarstone quartz, for instance, is non-porous, durable, and scratch-resistant, as well as being resistant to heat and humidity.<\/p>\n
2.Flooring
\nStone is a common choice for bathroom flooring. Not only does it create a feeling of grandeur
\nand luxury, but you also have a variety of colors and patterns to choose from. Materials such as Caesarstone quartz and Sensa granite are nonabsorbent and nonporous and are ideal for wet areas like shower surrounds and bathroom floors and walls.<\/p>\n
3.Shower\/Bath Tiles
\nOne way to add a splash of elegance to your bathing area is to incorporate natural stone in your
\nbath tile, or the area around your shower. Not only will this add an air of sophistication to the
\nroom, but it also stands out as a great focal piece. More regular cleaning is required with this
\napplication to avoid water marks, so selecting a material with water-resistant properties such as Dekton is ideal.<\/p>\n
4.Sinks
\nTypically in the bathroom, we see under-mount or vessel sinks (sits on top of the countertop).
\nNatural and engineered stone give you vast options for decorative and unique sink fabrication.
\nThis way, you can really amp up the creativity in your space.<\/p>\n
5.Accent Walls
\nIf you love the look of a natural stone slab, why not let it be the focal point of your bathroom
\nspace? You can have one wall clad in natural or engineered stone for a luxurious statement piece
\nin any bathroom space. Cosentino\u2019s new 4mm Dekton Slim surface coverings are perfect for use on bathroom walls as they allow you to clad larger areas in a quicker and more cost friendly manner. This is all whilst giving the same hard-wearing benefits of Dekton.<\/p>\n
Whether you are embarking on a new home design or a remodel, you will likely be visiting a
\nstone fabricator and it won\u2019t just be for your kitchen.<\/p>\n
