Without traffic, from La Chapelle-Saint-Luc. Strasbourg is about three and a half hours, too far for us.

When it's worth it

A worktop means two trips, and at two hours each way that's eight hours of driving for one kitchen. For a standard granite top, a local fabricator who can come back quickly is the better choice, honestly. We make the trip for:

Local stone

Jaumont in Metz, Meuse limestone round Saint-Dizier, pink sandstone in the Vosges. They're building stones, too porous for a worktop. Inside, we pick a marble, granite or quartzite in a related colour and hold a sample against the wall. Travertine and Galala go well with Jaumont.

Frost

Everywhere in the region, outdoor stone needs low absorption and a frost test. Polished marble outside is slippery in rain and ice, flamed granite is the usual answer. See the pool stone and frost guide.

Frequently asked questions

Do you cover the whole Grand Est?

No. Champagne yes, Lorraine for some jobs, Alsace usually not.

Can Jaumont stone be a worktop?

No, it's porous and soaks up oil and wine. Use a marble, granite or quartzite in a matching colour.

Is it worth bringing you two hours for a granite worktop?

Rarely. It makes more sense for a particular slab, a table or several jobs on one route.
