Soapstone countertop questions.

Don't see yours? Call (410) 875-7579 and ask a real person.

Does soapstone need to be sealed?

No. Soapstone is dense and non-porous, so it doesn't need sealing. Many owners wipe on mineral oil now and then to deepen the color evenly, but it's optional.

Do you stock full slabs?

Yes. Our Eldersburg location has slabs in stock. Our Columbia showroom has large-format displays, and many conveniently located local vendors let you see whole slabs before you choose.

Does soapstone scratch?

Yes, soapstone is softer than granite and will scratch. The good news: light scratches buff out with a little sanding or mineral oil, and many owners like the worn-in look.

Can I put hot pans on soapstone?

Yes. Soapstone handles heat very well, which is why it's a favorite for cooks.

Why does soapstone darken?

Soapstone naturally darkens with use and oil over time, developing a deep, even patina. Mineral oil speeds that up if you want the darker look right away.

Can I see soapstone in person?

Yes. See slabs in stock at our Eldersburg location (Mon-Fri 9-5), or large-format displays at our Columbia showroom (Mon-Fri 9-5, Sat 10-3).

How much do soapstone countertops cost?

It depends on the stone and size of your project. A free in-home estimate gets you an exact number.

How long does it take to get soapstone countertops?

Most projects install 6-12 business days after we template. For most standard kitchens, the install itself takes one day.

Who fabricates and installs the countertops?

We do. Every countertop is fabricated at our own facility in Eldersburg and installed by our own crew, with a 10-year labor warranty.

How much do new countertops cost?

It varies a lot with the stone, the brand, and the services you need. For a typical 45-55 square foot kitchen, most of our customers land between $4,500 and $6,500 installed. A free in-home estimate gets you an exact number.

Do you do small projects like bathroom vanities?

Yes. We keep a large selection of remnants that are perfect for vanities, bars, and laundry rooms.
