About Nature Stone

 Nature Stone flooring is a blend of fine river stone and specially formulated patent-pending epoxy expertly installed directly over existing concrete.
Nature Stone flooring is a permanent solution to having to replace concrete floor coverings in wet, damp, even flood-prone basement areas.
Nature Stone is also used to permanently cover ugly, chipped, stained and cracked concrete garage floors and patios and heavily considered among people who have allergies and need to improve the air quality within their home. Nature Stone is also a smart solution for laundry and utility rooms, pool decks, lobbies, entryways and high-traffic commercial areas.
