Premier Minneapolis 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 Minneapolis, 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.

I recently had Footprints Floors Minneapolis resurface and stain my hardwood floors, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Hayden was fantastic to work with: professional, responsive, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The floors look brand new and completely transformed the space. If you’re considering getting your floors done, don’t hesitate, these are the folks to call.

Chris 08/7/25 — google
We had new floors installed throughout our basement, and Footprints Flooring was fantastic to work with. 10/10. We were in a bit of a hurry and they were able to fit us in quickly, and even did an extra job of recarpeting our stairs even though we just inquired about it the same morning. The installers were extremely professional. Definitely recommend!
Jennifer O'Neill 07/17/25 — google
Hayden and his crew are the best. Last year came and sanded and stained my floors in the dining/living room. This year took out two inches of concrete and tile to put in new red oak hard wood in the kitchen, entry and pantry. They are the only company I will work with. They are the best!!!’
Maribeth Suter 07/15/25 — google
Footprints Floors did an excellent job refinishing our cabin oak floor and 2 stairways. They did exactly what we had agreed upon and worked hard to get the color just right. Walter worked hard and long to complete the job on time. Hayden was quick to respond to all of our questions. We are very happy with our floor!
Paul Krech 07/4/25 — google
Hayden and Walter and crew refinished our 34 year old oak floor and added a matching wood floor in our hallway, which used to be carpet. They worked hard to match the old floor and it looks seamless and beautiful. They were easy to work with, friendly and pleasant. We recommend Footprint Floors!

Their work on our commercial entryway project was excellent, as expected. What wasn't expected was their extreme flexibility and professionalism when problems and delays arose that neither of us caused. Outstanding. Definitely will use them again, and highly recommend them!
John Kingery 01/15/25 — google
We thought about having our floors refinished for quite some time but weren't sure who to go with. The floors were solid wood that had been stained and prefinished prior to installation. We were told that this is process would be tricky, time consuming and that possibly we wouldn't be pleased with the outcome. Needless to say, we were concerned but went with Footprint Floors to get the job done. Carson and staff were very helpful in every way to ease our concerns. The floors turned out great and we couldn't be happier. It really was a refresh for our kitchen!
Liz Bray 12/4/24 — google
Top notch company! Great communication and follow thru. Details that may have been missed during initial consult were immediately dealt with in a very professional manner. Craftsman were sensitive to our home cleanliness and took additional steps to contain each area to our satisfaction. This company has earned any work from us in the future. I would strongly recommend them for any future flooring projects!
Paul Williams 11/20/24 — google
