Lime Stone
Home > Stone > Limestone
A sedimentary rock formed from calcareous remains of plants and animals. It is a natural calcium carbontate. It has a smooth granular surface and varies in hardness. Some dense limestone can be polished. Color tones are typically neutral.
Limestone is softer, more prorous and less dense than granite. Even with the application of a stain inhibiting sealer, marble will require more maintenance and periodic application of Sealer. Care should be taken to prevent scratching from sliding sharp objects or abrasive cleaners across a limestone surface.
