Frequently Asked Questions
Do you schedule showroom visits by appointment or can I just walk in?
We welcome both appointments and walk-ins at our showroom. While appointments are not required, they are highly recommended, especially if you want dedicated time with a stone expert to explore our extensive selection of stone slabs for sale. Whether you’re searching for elegant quartz countertops, a classic soapstone, or unique granite, we’re ready to help you find the perfect material for your project.
If I buy a slab and not all of it is used on my project, do I get to keep the rest of it?
As a wholesale stone distributor, we do not sell directly to the public. To purchase a slab, you must work with a professional fabricator. The ownership of any leftover stone is determined by your chosen fabricator’s policies. We encourage you to discuss this with them when you’re getting a quote for your new kitchen countertops.
What are the main differences between stone types, and how do I choose the right one for my products?
Choosing the right stone for your project often comes down to personal aesthetics and the specific characteristics of each material. We have a detailed guide on our website that breaks down the differences between various stone types, including marble, granite, quartz, and soapstone. You can explore our gallery of available stone slabs for sale and learn about each one at https://www.doradosurfaces.com/. Ultimately, the “right” choice is the one that you love the look of and that fits your lifestyle.
Do you work with specific fabricators and installers, or can I hire my own? What fabricators do you work with?
We are proud to work with a wide network of qualified fabricators and installers. While we have relationships with many, you are absolutely free to hire your own. We believe in providing you with the freedom to choose the professional who best fits your project needs. We work with virtually all fabricators, so you can select your ideal stone from our collection and have it beautifully installed by your chosen expert.
Are there specific stones that are better suited for outdoor use or high-traffic areas like a kitchen?
While durability varies among stone types, personal preference often guides the selection for areas like high-traffic kitchens. For instance, many people choose durable quartz countertops for their low maintenance, while others prefer the classic look of granite or the rustic charm of soapstone near me. For outdoor applications, some granites and quartzites can be excellent choices due to their resistance to weathering. Our stone experts can help you compare the properties of different materials to find the best fit for your specific application.
Can I use stone slabs for more than just countertops? What are some other popular applications?
Absolutely! Our stunning stone slabs for sale are incredibly versatile and can be used for much more than just kitchen countertops. Popular applications include elegant fireplace surrounds, stylish window sills, luxurious shower walls, and custom-carved bathtubs. Stone can elevate any space with its natural beauty, from accent walls to outdoor patio features.
Do I need to seal my stone slab, and if so, how often? Is this something Dorado Surfaces can help with?
Whether a stone needs to be sealed depends on its type and porosity. Your professional fabricator is the best resource for this information. They will advise you on the specific care requirements for your new kitchen countertops, including if and how often they need to be sealed to protect them from stains and moisture.
How much does a stone slab cost? What factors influence the final price?
The cost of a stone slab can vary significantly, typically ranging from $600 to $6,000. However, your fabricator will provide the precise final price for your project. The total cost of stone slabs for sale is influenced by several factors, including market trends, the rarity of the stone, its origin, and the level of demand. Whether you’re looking at exotic granite, a unique soapstone near me, or popular quartz countertops, the final price is determined by these market dynamics.
How do I care for my new stone countertop? Are there specific cleaning products I should use or avoid?
Caring for your new kitchen countertops is essential for maintaining their beauty. For detailed and specific care instructions, we recommend researching the particular stone type you’ve chosen. A simple search for “Granite care FAQ,” “Quartz countertop cleaning,” or “How to care for soapstone” will provide a wealth of information to help you protect and preserve your beautiful investment.
How long can you hold my chosen stone slab?
NuStone Quartz hold are three (3) days. Natural stone holds are two (2) weeks.
