Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can stone withstand outdoor exposure (sun, rain, temperature changes)?
A: Yes — we advise on appropriate stones types and finishes designed for outdoor durability. With proper sealing, installation, and maintenance, the surfaces will handle the environment well.
Q: Which types of stone are best for alfresco use?
A: Granite, some marbles (depending on exposure), engineered stones, travertine, bluestone, and certain sandstones are popular. Choice depends on budget, look, slip resistance, and climate.
Q: How long does installation take?
A: That depends on the project size. Simple countertops or bar tops might be a few days; full alfresco kitchens or large patios may take several weeks (including fabrication, finishing, and installation).
Q: Do you provide after‐sale support and sealing maintenance?
A: Absolutely — we not only seal before installation but also provide advice on re‑sealing schedules, cleaning methods, and repair options if needed.
