When it comes to flooring, there are many options that you can think of. There’s wood, ceramics, natural stones, and many more. Lately, natural stones have gained popularity due to people preferring minimalism over other styles of interior designs. If you are aiming for a monochromatic design, there is one stone in particular that you want to consider, and that is Basalt.

Having black Basalt tiles as your flooring will give that cool and slick vibe that you may want to aim for, especially if you love that color. Basalt is a type of volcanic rock that can be mined and sold worldwide. High-quality basalts consist of a uniform color with precise cuts of craftsmanship.

What to Prepare?

When installing basalt, there are many things to consider. If you want it done for you, you can simply hire someone professional. However, that does not mean that you cannot ‘DIY’ this project. First of all, you need to prepare the surface before installing. The surface needs to be flat, clean, dry, and free of contaminations. You can use reinforced waterproof membranes as a surface for the basalt. You can also use other appropriate substrates, such as treated plywood, metal lathing, cement boards, and concrete.

Once the surface is ready, you need to cut your basalt into the appropriate sizes. You can cut it with a motorized saw or a hand grinder; make sure to do this under running water to prevent dust from flying everywhere because it can cause injuries or health problems if inhaled. After the cutting is done, it is important to wash the tiles and let them dry for 1—2 days. Once they are dry, you must apply sealant on both sides. Finally, apply another layer of sealant after installing it with a cement-based adhesive.

Pros and Cons of Basalt

After that series of processes to install Basalt tiles, finally, you can enjoy your new modern-looking floor. You don’t need to worry about scratches from normal usage because this type of natural stone is durable and hard, thanks to the volcanic process that forms it—making basalt to be ageless and long-lasting. However, basalt is known for being porous and can dye easily. That is why you need to seal your natural stone.

As for maintenance, you need to regularly clean it with water using a microfiber mop and avoid using chemicals as they can damage it. It is advisable never to drag your furniture across your basalt tiles. It is a good idea to keep spares in case you need to replace a heavily damaged one.
