Premier Chicago Stone Installation From Top Industry Professionals


Stone flooring is a natural material that can add elegance and sophistication to your home. However, it is also tough to install correctly because of the many variables involved in laying stone floors.

When choosing a stone for your floor, knowing what you're getting into when installing the product yourself is essential. Stone floors have varying degrees of hardness that require various tools and techniques during installation. If you’re looking for professional stone floor installation in Chicago, Footprints Floors has what you need. Our expert flooring installers will also take care of prep and cleanup to provide your home with beautiful new stone floors!

What is Stone Flooring?

Stone flooring may be a good choice for those who prefer an earthy feel. One can choose from many stone flooring types, including limestone, travertine, granite, marble and slate. The characteristics of those options will vary with each choice.

Limestone


Limestone flooring is a type of stone flooring that can be found in many modern-day residences. This type of stone flooring is not only popular, but also has many benefits. Limestone floors are one of the most durable types of materials due to their tough and heavy characteristics.

Limestone floors can hold up against scratches and spills, which means they do not need to be refinished as often as other materials.

Travertine


Travertine flooring is made of limestone that has been compacted and cemented together. Travertine comes in various colors, from tan, to brown, to black, each with unique characteristics.

Travertine can be challenging to install on your own due to the weight of the stone and the fact that it may not adhere if not correctly pressed down onto a surface. Travertine flooring will have a natural feel, as all the color variations come from natural impurities in the stone's formation.

Granite


Granite is an igneous rock that has formed over millions of years by the cooling and solidifying magma below Earth's surface. It is one of the hardest natural materials known to man. Granite's physical characteristics make it preferable for flooring as it has a uniform grain and texture, making each slab naturally easy to split into slabs.

The uniformity of granite also means that there are rarely any surprises with the final product because every piece will look similar to its neighbors.

Granite flooring is resistant to heat, water, scratches and stains, making it great for kitchens and bathrooms where spills are common. It is also very durable, so the stone can be used in areas with heavy traffic such as hallways or foyers without wearing down or becoming damaged easily. The surface of granite has a low porosity which makes it resistant to dirt buildup.

Marble


Marble is a metamorphic rock of mineral aggregate, with variable hardness and a high natural polish. It can be used as a cheaper alternative to granite flooring.

Marble slabs are generally more economical than granite slabs. Although marble slabs have a glossy appearance, they may have a slight sheen or texture that makes them less desirable for high-traffic areas at first glance. Still, marble slabs offer many of the same benefits as granite slabs with less expense involved.

Slate


Slate flooring is a type of stone that is found in metamorphic rocks. Slate is mined from the earth and then worked to create versatile flooring options for different applications. Slate can be polished to have a high sheen, matte finish — or somewhere in between. There are also textured slates available for those who want a more rustic look without the additional cost of installation.

What Rooms in Your Home are Appropriate for
Stone Flooring?

Stone flooring will add an organic touch to a room and also give off a feeling of luxury and wealth. Stone floors may be ideal for living rooms, studies or dining rooms, but they can be used in foyers and hallways as well. The material is heavy and durable, suitable for any high-traffic area that may get lots of wear and tear.

How to Install
Stone Flooring

Stone floor installation should be professionally completed by a Footprints Floors specialist, as it can be difficult without the proper equipment and experience.

For the best results, the stone should be installed over plywood or concrete for stability and ease of installation. The type of adhesive used will depend on what type of stone flooring is being installed and the desired result.

Stone Flooring
Cleaning and Maintenance

Stone floors may be susceptible to scratches, chemicals and oils, which can leave residue behind, so special care must be taken when spills occur. Spills should be cleaned up quickly to avoid leaving an unsightly mark on the floor. It is recommended that professional cleaning and polishing the stone be done every six months and after any spills to keep it looking shiny and new. Stone floors can last up to 30 years before needing an update.

Stone flooring is a unique choice for those who want a strong, organic element in their home or office space. Proper installation is vital to the longevity of the product and should be performed by a professional, like those at Footprints Floors.

Kyle and his team installed LVP flooring and baseboards in my high rise apartment and they did a great job! Kyle is very friendly and knowledgeable, and provided a really good price for high quality work
Mielah Bergeron 10/16/25 — google
We had an excellent experience getting our floors redone! The team was communicative, punctual, and incredibly efficient—they worked fast without sacrificing quality. The finished floors look amazing, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. Highly recommend!
Annie Wold Bolles 10/14/25 — google
Tom did a fantastic job on our backsplash tile — it looks gorgeous! He worked with a very old house that had a mix of uneven plaster and drywall, and you’d never know it from how seamless the result looks. He was always communicative about when he would arrive and always cleaned up after himself too. Kyle was also super communicative throughout the whole process, keeping us updated every step of the way. Highly recommend Footprint Floors for any tiling needs!!

Footprints Floors Chicago was fantastic to work with! They responded quickly and came out right away to see the room and provide a quote. The pricing was very reasonable, and they were flexible in scheduling the installation to work around our painters. The installation itself was completed in just two days, and the finished floor is absolutely beautiful. Excellent job all around—highly recommend!
Amber Horne 09/4/25 — google
We could not have been more pleased. The communication was great, we were quoted promptly, the scheduling was no-hassle and the quality of the work was top notch. Every aspect of the transaction was professional and courteous. The price was very reasonable, and the work was outstanding - my hats off to the crew who did the work, their attention to detail was fantastic. I highly recommend.
Tim ONeill 09/4/25 — google
Wow! I can not speak highly enough for Kyle, David, and Ovi. Even though the job was small they had phenomenal follow up, communication and support. They repaired a few areas of hardwood floor that had been removed by previous owners and the matching was seamless. I can not tell where the repairs were done because of the quality of the work. When there was need for adjustments to some of the work (due to no fault of theirs) they went above and beyond to make sure the floor was perfect. I really can not speak highly enough of everyone at Footprints! We will absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone who needs their floors done. I would give them 10 stars if I could!

I sustained significant water damage in my kitchen from a malfunctioning dishwasher. Foorprints repaired the damage after mitigation and restained and refinished the hardwood floors in my entire home. They were very professional, prompt, and efficient. The floors are beautiful and I cannot tell where the damage was, the repair work was flawless. I highly recommend Kyle and his team.
Frank Hicks 08/20/25 — google
Great communication and craftsmanship. We hired the Footprints team for two separate projects...both a complete demo of floor and subfloor. Our new hardwood floors look beautiful.
Desalina Guarise 08/7/25 — google
Footprints did a great job and provided helpful advice on how to proceed with the project.
Brian Harper 08/5/25 — google
Kyle and his team were so great to work with! Communication throughout was prompt and far exceeded our experience with previous contractors! We hired them to redo the flooring in our condo's common spaces and what a difference! The builder had left us with some badly done epoxy and some strange angles/slopes, and Kyle was able to provide insight about why going with a certain product would be necessary for our space considering those factors. None of the other companies that we had come out pointed out these factors, and looking back we would have had issues choosing something else. Thanks to Kyle and Kenny our new floors were installed efficiently and have transformed these spaces for the better! Highly recommend using Footprints Floors for any of your flooring needs!
Kara Volle 08/3/25 — google
I had a great experience with Footprints Floors Chicago. The floors look awesome and I was impressed with their promptness and accountability.
Sarah Leong 08/2/25 — google
Working with Kyle and Footprints was a great experience all around. As first time homeowners, we were daunted by the prospect of renovating our floors. But Kyle was helpful, responsive, and patient with us throughout the process. He went the extra mile to make sure we were okay with any decision being made. Kyle and his team really helped put us at ease, and the floors look awesome! I highly recommend working with them.
Tj Horansky 07/31/25 — google
I had two spaces that needed work: one needed new hardwood, the other refinishing. I’m so glad I hired Footprints for the job. Kyle and his team were wonderful to work with and I’m so pleased with the end result. Would hire again in a heartbeat!
Jeannette Levitt 07/30/25 — google
Hugo refinished the entire condo in an older building. Also repaired spots. The floors look amazing! Kyle and Hugo were very pleasant to work with. Price seemed very fair. I highly recommend them!
Amy Lullo 07/30/25 — google
Quick and had a tremendous amount of insight about how to tackle the project that I'd have never thought about. Talked to several independent contractors and glad I went this direction instead
Colin Mackintosh 06/24/25 — google
Kyle and Keni did a great job replacing the floors in my condo. They were professional and tried their best to make things work. Very reasonable price for the work and service provided. Would definitely recommend them to anyone needs flooring services.
