Founded in 2001 in Denver, Colorado, Dorado Soapstone (now Dorado Surfaces) is a specialist wholesaler of premium soapstone, quartz, and natural stone slabs. Founder Steven Chavez sources materials directly from quarries in Brazil and around the world, hand-selecting slabs for quality, color, and unique character.

The largest soapstone selection in the western U.S.
Slabs hand-selected from Brazilian quarries
Dorado is the premier soapstone specialist in the western United States, carrying 10–12 distinct soapstone varieties at any given time — far more than typical stone distributors. Soapstone is naturally nonporous, heat-resistant, and develops a beautiful patina over time. It never stains, etches, or harbors bacteria, making it an exceptional choice for kitchen countertops.
Beyond soapstone, Dorado Surfaces now offers NuStone Quartz (their proprietary engineered line), plus natural granite, marble, quartzite, and dolomite. Their Denver showroom is one of the most curated stone experiences in Colorado, with full-size slabs displayed for easy comparison and selection.
Dorado is a Colorado neighbor — based in Denver with deep roots in our regional stone community. This proximity gives us faster slab access, reduced shipping costs, and a direct relationship that benefits our Steamboat Springs clients with better pricing and faster turnaround.
If soapstone is on your radar, there is no better source. We work with Dorado to bring their full selection to your project, handling everything from slab selection to expert fabrication and installation in your home.
