Stonework

Stone Contractor in Orlando, Winter Park & Central Florida

Stonework is at the heart of M&E Custom Concepts. From marble feature walls and quartzite fireplace surrounds to travertine pool decks and granite exteriors, we install natural and engineered stone throughout Winter Park, Orlando, and Central Florida.

Stone is unforgiving — every seam, miter, and movement joint has to be planned. We template digitally, dry-fit, book-match veining, and set with the right adhesives and supports so your stone reads as one continuous, intentional surface.

Our portfolio includes high-end residential renovations, custom homes, restaurants, retail, and commercial lobbies. The same crew that installs a $50K marble fireplace also detail-checks a $5K accent wall — quality doesn't scale down.

Problems We Solve

Homeowners, designers, builders, and commercial property managers across Central Florida call M&E Custom Concepts when they need work done right the first time. Below are the issues we hear about most — and fix every week.

  • Stone slabs cracking, lipping, or shifting because the substrate wasn't engineered for the weight.
  • Visible seams where the installer didn't book-match or vein-match the slabs.
  • Etching, staining, and dull spots from improper sealing or harsh cleaners.
  • Fireplace surrounds installed without proper fireproof backing or expansion allowance.
  • Exterior stone failing in Florida humidity and rain because the wrong thinset or sealer was used.
  • Slabs ordered too small, leaving fillers and awkward cuts in focal areas.

Materials We Install

We work with premium materials sourced from trusted suppliers in Florida and abroad. Every selection is matched to your project's use, climate, and budget.

Marble

Calacatta, Carrara, Statuario, and exotic marbles for fireplaces, feature walls, vanities, and bookmatched showers.

Quartzite

A harder, more stain-resistant alternative to marble — ideal for kitchens, bars, and high-use surfaces with a natural look.

Granite

Durable, heat-resistant, and cost-effective for exterior cladding, commercial counters, and high-traffic feature areas.

Travertine

Filled or unfilled travertine for pool decks, patios, exterior cladding, and Mediterranean-style interiors.

Limestone & Sandstone

Soft, warm tones for fireplaces, exterior elevations, and interior accent walls.

Engineered Stone & Porcelain Slab

Quartz and gauged porcelain panels for clients who want stone aesthetics with lower maintenance.

Our Installation Process

We follow industry-standard methods (TCNA, ANSI, and manufacturer specifications) so your installation lasts. No shortcuts, no guesswork.

Step 1

Design & material consultation

We help you select slabs at the yard, mark the cut lines on the slabs themselves, and plan vein direction so the finished install reads as intentional, not random.

Step 2

Digital templating

We laser-template walls, fireplaces, and counters so cuts are precise to within 1/16 inch — critical for mitered edges and book-matched seams.

Step 3

Substrate engineering

Heavy stone needs proper backing — we add steel, plywood, cement board, or anchor systems as required so the installation carries the load and stays flat over time.

Step 4

Setting & seaming

Stone is set with the correct adhesive (large-format thinset, epoxy, or mechanical anchors), with seams aligned, color-matched, and finished flush.

Step 5

Sealing & care plan

Every porous stone is sealed with a penetrating sealer rated for the surface use, and we leave you with written care instructions and product recommendations.

Residential & Commercial

On the residential side we install fireplace surrounds, feature walls, kitchen islands, master bath showers, and exterior stone. On the commercial side we work with general contractors, architects, and designers on lobbies, restaurants, retail buildouts, and hospitality. We can read shop drawings, hold to construction schedules, and coordinate with other trades.
