Are you looking for flooring options for your home? Tiles are a great flooring choice as they are long-lasting and require less maintenance. Tiles are available in several patterns, designs and colours. Yet, all types of tiles are not suitable for a particular space as they have to match the vibe of the room. At Bossio Stone Imports, we supply durable and attractive Italian tiles. Our tiles are resistant to wear, water absorption, staining and scratching. We also offer quartz, granite and limestone fireplace surrounds.

Granite is a favourite alternative for many new homeowners for its aesthetic value. The perks of using granite countertops for your kitchen are that they are durable, have a natural appeal and require minimum maintenance. The kitchen countertop experts at Bossio Stone Imports have some tips to assist you with caring for your granite countertops in Edmonton.

Quartz kitchen countertops are sturdy, available in eye-catching designs and come in a variety of colours. They are different from natural stone slabs as they are not mined but engineered in a factory. The major ingredient is quartz chips which are combined with polyester resins for binding and pigments for colour. Small amounts of recycled glass or metallic flecks can be added for different designs. The resins added contribute stain and scratch-resistant properties to quartz. The great range of colours and interesting looks make quartz countertops an extremely popular choice these days. At Bossio Stone Imports, you can choose from multiple brands offering quartz countertops in Edmonton. We also offer tiles and granite countertop installation.

Homeowners have been selecting granite countertops as a favourite for their kitchen interiors for years now. The question is, how do you decide whether the granite you're getting is good quality or not? Read on to find out.

Whether you’re building a brand new kitchen or renovating an existing one, you’ll want to create something that’s at once functional, comfortable and pleasant to be in.

One of the most important decisions you’ll have to make will be the countertops. Given the dizzying array of choices we now have when it comes to materials for countertops, it can also be one of the most difficult decisions. The kitchen countertops experts at Bossio Stone, in Edmonton, suggest keeping a few things in mind when deciding on your countertops.

Your kitchen countertops play an important role in defining your kitchen. Whether you’re building a brand new one, or simply renovating an existing one, choosing the perfect countertop can help put the finishing touch on the room. Two of the most popular choices for countertops are quartz and granite and while the two products may at first glance seem quite similar, there are still some important differences between them.

We have, again, expanded our selection of inventoried Italian tile. This month we are thrilled with the addition of a couple of new lines – VINTAGE and NEW YORKER. These are both current styles that were stand outs at the spring tile show.

Next time you’re wondering how to remove a stain, protect your grout, stone tiles or countertops, or even if you’re not sure which products to use for routine maintenance, consider a solution from Fila. Manufactured in Italy, this high quality line of products is favoured by many installers. Fila has also recently introduced a number of “Eco” products to the Canadian marketplace – more environmentally friendly choices to clean and protect your tile, grout and stone. We currently stock over 25 Fila products in the renovated office off our main showroom that we affectionately refer to as our “mini Home Depot” – alongside all of the tools and setting materials you’ll need if you’re a DIY customer. Fila – everything you need to care for stone.

We’ve just received a shipment from Saime Ceramica in Italy which included our much anticipated new porcelain tile – Volcano. We are stocking two of the most popular colours: Marrone and Bianco. Marrone is a taupe/grey shade in either matte or semi polished, and Bianco is a soft grey/white matte finish tile. This mid-priced 12 x 24″ tile is ideal for floors or walls. We have also brought in a random strip muretto as part of the Bianco line, which would make a beautiful backsplash or accent trim on the floor. Additionally, a 3/4″ wide x 23 1/4″ strip of Bianco with evenly spaced silver drops is available to add just a touch of sparkle to your project.

When we were at the Coverings tile show in Las Vegas recently, we chose a few of our favourite new lines offered by one of our suppliers, Cisa Ceramiche. We are now unloading a sea container of product to add to our inventory! Included is a line of porcelain that looks like hardwood – a really noticeable trend this year and a totally functional choice for our climate (you can come in with snowy boots and not damage your floor!)
