Provided by 'Ancient Surfaces' Product name: Antique Thick Limestone Countertops, AKA Foundation Slabs . Phone: (212) 461-0245 Email: Sales@ancientsurfaces.com Website: www.AncientSurfaces.com Direct: www.AncientSurfaces.com/Foundation-Slabs.html Those centuries old foundation Slabs were once the thick building blocks of old villas & farmhouses. Those blocks could be found at the bottom support base of many older reclaimed structures. We are passionate about milling them down to 2.5" in thickness so they could be used on counters and pool copings. Yes counters! Those thick & massive chucks of Limestone absorb virtually nothing and can stand up to anything you can throw at them. Seemingly indestructible, they are ideal for anyone who is a great cook and who doesn’t want to worry about leaving wine rings, lime juice or oil stains on their counters while cooking or entertaining guests. If you practically live in your kitchen which is true for many of us, you have no choice but to consider incorporating the foundation slabs as your kitchen counter tops. Make your kitchen fun and enjoy the best counter tops available on earth by securing some of those slab cuts today. Our thick Foundation Slabs are also ideal for any stepping stone design elements for your outdoors stairs, as stepping or landscaping stones, or as wall and pool copings able to withstand any weather pattern or condition.

The perfect paints for masonry are now available through Acme Brick. Romabio offers both limewash and masonry paint for those that want to change the look of their brickwork. Classico Limewash creates that charming old world feel with a freshly painted look, but because some of the brick remains exposed, the warmth and quality endues. All it takes is a single coat for absorbant, unpainted brick, stone or other masonry, with no primer needed. Specially formulated to be easily manipulated in the first 5 days of application, you can test the product and see the results with no risk. Once it calcifies to the surface, it is breathable and will not seal the brick or stone, ensuring that it it doesnt peel, chip, or flake off. BioDomus I & II are mineral based, breathable paints that will not seal the masonry surface. Unlike acrylic or latex, they will not peel, chip, or flake off. Both BioDomus I and BioDomus II are high performing paints that are inherently the same except for the finish they create. BioDomus I produces a flat finish. BioDomus II has a slight aggregate in it to create a textured look on smooth brick, or a smoother finish on a rough surface. Color possibilites are almost unlimited as you can match other color palettes or choose from over 200 colors in the Romabio color deck. With a high UV resistance, a breatheable wall, and a 20 year warranty, the performance of these products is made to last.

The in-law suite kitchen could only be in a small corner of the basement. The kitchen design started with the question: how small can this kitchen be? The compact layout was designed to provide generous counter space, comfortable walking clearances, and abundant storage. The bold colors and fun patterns anchored by the warmth of the dark wood flooring create a happy and invigorating space. SQUARE FEET: 140

Soapstone is the only counter top material that is not affected by heat and resists staining. You can spill on it, or place a hot pot directly on the counter. Soapstone was the material of choice for thousands of laboratory countertops for many years because it is completely non-absorbent. It is comparably priced with most other counter top materials. It is soft and will show wear, but scratches are quite easy to repair with a little mineral oil. Soapstone was used by Native Americans in Maryland; it is a traditional and natural material.
