Ever been interested in putting granite or some other type of stone outdoors? Perhaps for a BBQ, Fireplace, tables. Here are somethings to think about:
Soap Stone is one of the better stones to use around a fire pit. Some stones cannot handle the heat from a fire pit very well, but soap stone can handle over 700 degrees.
If interested in stone for your outdoor bar, you do not want it to be dark. Dark stones attract a lot of sunlight, thus getting hot. Keep you stone light.
If you live in a place like Buffalo, NY then your stone is exposed to the elements of the outdoors. So make sure you maintain it.
Here is a before picture of a kitchen that we were working on. I thought it had the potential to be something stunning and wanted to show how much granite can change the feeling of a room. The homeowner had purchased this house with the brick work existing. Although it looks beautiful now a lot of hard work was put into remodeling this kitchen.
