Flooring Done Right: 2025 Trends, MSI Selection, and the American Stone Advantage

November 05, 2025

Choosing the right flooring material is one of the most critical, long-term decisions a homeowner can make. Get it right, and the space sings for decades. Get it wrong, and you’re tearing out expensive material years later.

You know the saying: a house is only as good as its foundation.

As contractors, masons, and ambitious homeowners across the Mountain West and Pacific Northwest, you understand this better than anyone. But the "foundation" isn't just concrete; it's the surface your client walks on every single day. It’s the kitchen floor tile that absorbs spills, the bathroom flooring that handles the steam, and the natural tile mudroom tile that shrugs off the grit.

For years, American Stone has been your trusted guide for the outside: the flagstone, the xeriscape rock, the direct-from-our-quarry natural stone that builds lasting beauty. That foundation of expertise is why we knew the right move was to expand our partnership to bring you the massive selection of MSI Surfaces flooring tile.

We’ve made a promise: We help people create beautiful spaces and living scapes through natural stone products. That means a stone for every surface, and now a surface for every space. From natural stone tile to the latest in Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP), let’s talk about why your flooring source is your secret weapon for winning bids, saving time, and building spaces that last.

The Right Material for Every Space: Your Unbeatable Selection

Our business was literally built on natural stone. From our quarries to your project, we handle the material that defines masonry and landscaping. So, when it came to expanding our portfolio for kitchen and bath finishes, the first thing we looked at was natural stone tile. We’re talking the rich travertine, the subtle slate, and timeless marble tile. MSI is a global leader in sourcing and quality for this exact material, making them a perfect, natural fit for our bedrock values.

But our job is to help you create beautiful spaces, whether it’s you client or your family. That’s why we partnered to bring you their entire, expansive collection of flooring materials.

The modern homeowner, fueled by magazines like Better Homes & Gardens and Architectural Digest, is demanding more than ever. They want the look of natural wood, but the durability of porcelain tile. They want the classic feel of marble, without the maintenance. MSI surfaces is our partner in delivering solutions:

Natural Stone Tile: The Legacy of Luxury

Our roots are in the earth. It was a natural progression for us to offer natural stone tile like travertine, slate, and stunning marble tile for floors, baths, and backsplashes. This material is the ultimate choice for high-end, timeless luxury. Our shared expertise with MSI ensures you get:

  • Consistency: The quality control you expect from a quarry-direct source, applied to your indoor stone.
  • Variety: From honed finishes to rustic tumbled edges, we have the precise stone to match any architectural style.

Porcelain Tile: The Champion of Durability

The latest porcelain tile is where design meets engineering. This is the ultimate problem-solver for the Mountain West, standing up to mud, temperature swings, and heavy foot traffic.

  • Wood-Look Porcelain: This is the hottest trend in kitchen flooring today. It gives you the warm, inviting look of natural wood without the maintenance, ideal for radiant heat and open-concept living.
  • Large Format Tiles: Say goodbye to busy grout lines. These oversized, clean tiles create an expansive, seamless look that is dominating high-end home remodeling projects.

Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) & Tile (LVT): The Value Engine

As contractors and savvy homeowners, you know you need options that hit the price point without sacrificing the look. LVP is that option.

  • Budget-Friendly Performance: The latest Luxury Vinyl Plank is waterproof, durable, and installs quickly. It’s perfect for basement remodels, rentals, and high-moisture zones like laundry room flooring.
  • Winning Bids: Offering premium-look LVP allows our contractors to provide a stunning solution at a price that consistently beats the competition, helping you win more bids and increase project volume.
