Lay stone carpet

A stone carpet is a floor covering consisting of small stones or quartz grains that are mixed with a binding agent (usually resin) and then applied to a solid surface. It forms a decorative, hard-wearing and non-slip surface and is used both indoors and outdoors.

 

Advantages:

  1. Aesthetics: Stone carpets look modern and attractive, with a natural texture and variety of colors.

  2. Durability: They are very durable and resistant to wear and tear, making them ideal for high traffic areas.

  3. Easy to care for: Cleaning and maintenance are usually straightforward.

  4. Warm feet and non-slip: Stone rugs feel warm on the feet and provide a non-slip surface.

  5. Adaptability: They can be applied to different surfaces and in different rooms, both indoors and outdoors.

  6. Repairs: If there is damage, repairs can be cheaper than, for example, tiles

Disadvantages:

  1. Cost: Purchasing and installing a stone carpet can be more expensive than other floor coverings.

  2. Installation: Installation requires expertise and can be time-consuming.

  3. Comfort: Although they are warm underfoot, they can be harder than other floor coverings such as carpet or wood.

  4. Temperature sensitivity: During extreme temperature changes, stone carpets can expand or contract, which can lead to cracks, as with other floor coverings.

 

Stone carpet is not suitable for:

  1. Areas of Constant Moisture: Because the material can be porous, it is not ideal for places that are constantly wet, such as showers or swimming pool areas.

  2. Rooms with high mechanical stress: In workshops or industrial areas where heavy machinery or vehicles are used, the stone carpet could suffer from the stress.

  3. Unsuitable surfaces: The stone carpet may not adhere properly to very uneven or brittle surfaces.

  4. Extreme temperatures: In areas with extreme temperature fluctuations, the stone carpet could develop cracks.

  5. Areas where quick installation is required: Because laying a stone carpet requires time (for the resin to cure), it is not ideal for projects that require immediate use.

 

Stone carpet is particularly suitable for the following areas:

  1. Living areas: It is ideal for living rooms, bedrooms and other areas of the home where an aesthetic and durable flooring solution is required.

  2. Offices and commercial spaces: Due to its durability and good looks, it is often used in offices, reception areas and other commercial spaces.

  3. Outdoor areas: Stone carpets are also suitable for patios, balconies, walkways and entrance areas as they are weather-resistant and non-slip.

  4. Wet rooms: A stone carpet can be used in bathrooms and kitchens, provided it is properly sealed to make it waterproof.

  5. Stairs: It is also a popular choice for stairs as it offers slip resistance and can be adjusted to the shape of the steps.

  6. Exhibition spaces and showrooms: Its attractive appearance makes it ideal for places where products or works of art are presented.

  7. Public facilities: In schools, hospitals and other public buildings, it offers a long-lasting and easy-care flooring solution.

The versatility of the stone carpet makes it a popular choice for many different applications.
