A 50,000 sq ft Coral Stone Estate in Islamorada
One of the largest coral stone installations in South Florida — 20,000 sq ft of coral stone cladding, 35,000 sq ft of flooring and 50,000 sq ft of pavers across a single Florida Keys estate, installed by our engineer-led crew.

Coral Stone (Keystone) is a natural marine sedimentary rock mined from the Caribbean. Unlike man-made pavers, every piece is unique, containing visible fossils of coral, shells, and marine life. It is the gold standard for high-end architecture in South Florida due to its ability to repel heat.
Pool Deck & Patio Solutions:
Factory Direct Luxury
We are not just installers; we are the manufacturers. We import raw blocks directly from our quarries in the Dominican Republic and cut them to precision in our local facility.
This means you get premium grade selection (no fillers, no crumbling) at a price that beats what other contractors pay for wholesale. Whether you want a pristine White Coral for a modern pool deck or a warm Gold Coral for a Mediterranean patio, we control the quality from the earth to your home.
Where Coral Stone Should NOT Be Used
While Coral Stone is unmatched for pool decks and pedestrian areas, we do NOT recommend it for full vehicular driveways with daily traffic.
For driveways, we often combine Coral Stone as a decorative border, apron, or inlay to accent structural concrete or clay pavers that are designed for heavy vehicle loads.
Pros of Coral Stone
- Thermal Comfort: One of the coolest natural stones underfoot, even in direct Miami noon sun.
- Natural Safety: The natural porosity and fossil texture provide a superior non-slip grip when wet.
- Timeless Value: Real stone adds immediate equity to your home; it doesn't look "dated" like stamped concrete.
Cons of Coral Stone
- Maintenance: Being a natural porous stone, it requires professional sealing to prevent stains from oil or tires (We offer this service).
- Natural Variation: As a natural product, color and fossil patterns vary—this is part of its beauty, not a defect.

Coral Stone vs Travertine: Which Pool Deck Stays Cooler?
Coral stone and travertine are the two most popular pool deck materials in Miami, and both stay far cooler underfoot than concrete. Coral stone is the premium choice: a dense, naturally porous limestone that resists heat, never fades, and gives a distinctly tropical, high-end look. Travertine is the mid-range option — still cool and elegant, at a more accessible price point.
| Feature | Coral Stone | Travertine |
|---|---|---|
| Stays cool underfoot | Excellent — reflects heat | Very good |
| Slip resistance | High, natural texture | High (tumbled/brushed) |
| Color longevity | Permanent, non-fading | Long-lasting |
| Cost tier | Premium | Mid-range |
| Best for | Luxury pool decks & estates | Pool decks & elegant driveways |
Coral stone sits in the premium tier of pool deck pavers. For how it compares across the full range of materials, see our paver installation cost guide.
