At Internal Stone Flooring, we supply and install natural stone floors for homes, commercial properties, and listed buildings throughout the UK.

Internal stone flooring combines visual elegance with long-term durability, making it ideal for kitchens, hallways, bathrooms, and open-plan living spaces. 

Since interior floors must withstand daily wear, foot traffic, and changes in humidity, we fit stone flooring systems that balance performance with timeless style.

Why Do We Recommend Stone Flooring for Interiors?

We recommend stone flooring for interiors because it offers strength, longevity, and natural aesthetic appeal.

As stone is inherently hard-wearing, it resists scratches, dents, and stains better than many synthetic floor coverings. 

Since stone also retains heat and adds value to a property, it’s a practical and architectural investment for both period homes and modern builds.

What Types of Stone Flooring Do We Offer?

We offer limestone, travertine, marble, slate, sandstone, and terrazzo flooring, all cut and finished for interior use.

Limestone and travertine provide a soft, traditional look, while marble offers a polished, luxurious finish. 

Slate and sandstone are textured and robust, suited to high-traffic areas. 

Since each stone varies in tone and density, we help you select a material suited to both your space and your lifestyle.

How Much Does Internal Stone Flooring Cost?

Internal stone flooring typically costs between £100 and £180 per square metre.

This  includes supply and installation.

Limestone and slate generally range from £100–£130 per m², while marble and premium-cut travertine may cost £140–£180 per m². 

Prices vary based on tile size, finish, floor preparation, and sealing. 

We provide fixed, itemised quotes after surveying your space.

What Are the Benefits of Internal Stone Flooring?

Installing internal stone flooring improves the functionality, longevity, and visual quality of interior spaces.

Key benefits include:

• Durable and long-lasting – Natural stone floors withstand decades of use, making them ideal for high-traffic or family spaces.
  
• Low maintenance – Once sealed, stone resists stains, dust, and water damage, requiring only regular sweeping and occasional mopping.
  
• Works with underfloor heating – Stone has high thermal conductivity, making it efficient for radiant heating systems.
  
• Adds property value – Professionally laid stone floors improve home valuation and appeal to buyers seeking quality finishes.
  
• Natural, unique finish – Every tile has unique markings, fossilisation, or grain, providing character that synthetic flooring lacks.
  
• Available in many styles – From modern honed marble to rustic flagstone, stone suits both contemporary and traditional interiors.
  
• Hypoallergenic surface – Unlike carpets, stone does not trap dust, pet dander, or pollen, supporting cleaner indoor air.
  
• Environmentally stable – Stone is a natural material with a long lifecycle and minimal chemical processing.
  
• Compatible with wet areas – Sealed stone can be used in kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms without absorbing moisture.
  
• Scratch and impact resistant – Compared to vinyl or laminate, stone resists damage from furniture, high heels, and daily use.
  
• Can be refinished or re-honed – Over time, natural stone can be restored to its original appearance without replacement.
  
• Fire and heat resistant – Stone flooring won’t burn, melt, or deform, making it a safe and stable flooring option.

How Long Does Stone Flooring Installation Take?

Stone flooring installation usually takes 3 to 7 working days.

Duration depends on area size and subfloor condition.

The process includes floor preparation, adhesive application, tile setting, grouting, and sealing. 

Since natural stone requires curing and careful levelling, installation takes longer than laminate or engineered wood, but results in a more permanent finish.

What Subfloor Preparation Do We Provide?

We prepare subfloors by levelling, priming, and reinforcing them as needed to support stone flooring.

As natural stone is heavy and inflexible, subfloors must be structurally sound, flat, and dry before tiling begins. 

We install cement backer boards, damp-proof membranes, or self-levelling compounds based on your substructure and room type.

Do We Seal the Stone After Installation?

We seal all internal stone flooring after installation to protect against staining, water absorption, and wear.

Since stone is porous by nature, sealing prevents surface damage from liquids, cleaning agents, and food spills. 

We use breathable, penetrating sealants that preserve natural colour while allowing moisture vapour to escape.

Can We Install Stone Flooring Over Underfloor Heating?

We install stone flooring over underfloor heating systems using appropriate adhesives and expansion joints.

Because stone retains and distributes heat evenly, it is highly efficient in heated floors. 

As temperature changes cause slight movement, we use decoupling membranes and flexible adhesive systems to prevent cracking.

Is Stone Flooring Suitable for Kitchens and Bathrooms?

Stone flooring is well suited to kitchens, bathrooms, and utility areas when sealed properly.

Since these rooms are exposed to spills, moisture, and frequent cleaning, we select dense stones and protective finishes that resist water damage and surface wear. 

Textured finishes also reduce slipperiness in wet areas.

Can We Customise Layouts and Tile Sizes?

We offer fully customisable floor designs using modular or mixed-format tiles, border inlays, and layout patterns.

As stone is cut to a range of sizes and edge profiles, we create layouts in herringbone, brick bond, Versailles, or uniform grid formats. 

Since each space has its own proportions, we scale the design to suit room dimensions and interior flow.

Do We Install Stone Flooring in Commercial Properties?

We install internal stone flooring in retail, office, hospitality, and heritage buildings.

Stone is ideal for commercial interiors because it handles constant foot traffic, requires little upkeep, and aligns with premium interior design. 

We offer high-durability sealants and commercial-grade subfloor systems where heavier use is expected.

Is Stone Flooring Sustainable?

Natural stone is a sustainable flooring choice due to its longevity, recyclability, and low-emission production.

As stone is quarried with minimal processing and lasts for decades, it outperforms synthetic materials in environmental footprint. 

We also source from UK-based or ethically certified quarries where possible.

Can We Match Stone Flooring with Wall and Stair Finishes?

We supply matching stone for stairs, skirtings, splashback, and wall cladding upon request.

Because design continuity is important in open-plan or high-end interiors, we cut stone to specification and ensure consistency across floor and vertical surfaces. 

Coordinated finishes are common in luxury bathrooms, entrance halls, and kitchens.

How Do We Handle Existing Flooring?

We remove existing carpets, vinyl, timber, or tiles before installing internal stone flooring.

Old materials are disposed of in line with UK waste regulations. 

Subfloors are then inspected for moisture, level, and stability before installation begins. 

Since improper preparation compromises tile longevity, we ensure a suitable base is created every time.
