Why Install Soapstone Slabs?
Soapstone is a popular choice for kitchen applications, fireplaces and more. These slabs beautify spaces and are also a practical choice — simplifying your lifestyle. Soapstone slabs:
- Are nonporous: Soapstone is dense, with no cracks or holes where liquids can seep through. The nonporous surface safeguards the material from stains and keeps environments hygienic, as the stone does not harbor contaminants and germs.
- Age gracefully: Unlike other surfaces that need more maintenance and perhaps replacements over time, soapstone ages gracefully. Through daily use, these surfaces develop a charming natural sheen.
- Are heat-resistant: Soapstone is perfect for kitchen applications, as you can place hot pots and pans near the surface without worrying about heat-related cracking.
- Offer a seamless look: Soapstone is easier to cut and shape than some other natural stones, allowing for smooth, unnoticeable joints.
Design Breathtaking and Functional Spaces
Incorporate a grey or black slab like saratoga black soapstone in your interior design or architectural project for a classic yet on-trend look. Our soapstone slabs have various applications, including:
Kitchens
Enjoy beautiful and practical soapstone countertops that withstand wine, coffee and other spills, as well as extreme heat. The non-porous surface makes soapstone weatherproof, allowing you to use these slabs for outdoor kitchens, too.
Wall and Floor Coverings
Soapstone tiles can retain heat, and when combined with an in-floor heat system, they warm rooms wonderfully. Soapstone floor tiles also work well for sauna rooms and bathrooms, as they do not absorb water or become slippery. The wonderfully soft feel of soapstone tiles under your feet is an added bonus. Alternatively, use this material for backsplashes to set the mood of interior spaces.
Bathrooms
You can use soapstone for elegant shower floors and vanity tops. Our water-resistant soapstone tiles are a perfect match for your bathroom space.
Fireplaces
A soapstone fireplace is a common yet exquisite application of this natural stone. These eye-catching fireplaces absorb, store and radiate heat well.
Outdoor
Upgrade your backyard space with an outdoor soapstone tile patio or an outdoor soapstone kitchen countertop. These additions are perfect for any backyard space and add a nice aesthetic for barbecues and other outdoor gatherings.
