Save Money On Your Small Stone Projects With Remnants


Marble, granite, and quartz are becoming increasingly popular throughout the home. And this makes perfect sense – they’re beautiful, durable, and sustainable!

For smaller projects, however, it often doesn’t make sense to buy an entire slab of material. In fact, doing so would put stone out of reach, cost wise, for many people. Marble, granite, and quartz are all sold by the slab, this means that even if you need only half, typically you’ll have to buy it all. But before you give up on your dream of that new powder room, we have just the solution – remnants!

“Remnants: leftover pieces of marble, granite, quartz, or other natural stone slabs which can range in size from just a few square feet to half a slab or more!”

You can save money on your project in three ways by using remnants.

You are buying less material when you purchase a remnant. Since marble and granite are priced by the square foot, buying less square footage means a lower cost for you.
Remnants are generally sold at below wholesale prices!
Slabs are ready to be cut and fabricated for your project saving on production time

Remnants can be useful for larger projects too. Perhaps you are doing your kitchen and your powder room. Remnants are a good fit if you don’t have enough material left from your kitchen to cover both areas, or if you want a different material for your island or vanity top.

Here at Universal Stone we have a large selection of remnants. If you’re looking for a particular stone, give us a call and we’ll check if we have a remnant in stock that fits your needs. If you haven’t chosen the exact material yet, come in and browse through the remnants – we’ll help you find just the right piece!
