What is Limestone?
Limestone is a natural sedimentary stone, one that’s porous and soft like marble, so it does require sealing and maintenance. Yet, limestone brings depth and character than you won’t find in synthetic materials. It’s known for its soft, matte texture and neutral color palette, limestone brings a warm, organic look to interiors. While not as hard as granite or quartz, it can be an excellent option for residential applications with proper care.
If you want a timeless centerpiece that works with both traditional and modern interiors, choose Limestone.

Frequently Asked Questions About Limestone Surfaces
1. Is limestone durable enough for kitchen countertops?
Limestone can be used in low-traffic areas where the surface isn’t exposed to heavy wear. Therefore, while limestone can be used in kitchens, it’s better suited for bathrooms, accent walls, and fireplaces.
2. Do limestone countertops need to be sealed?
Yes. Limestone is porous and should be sealed to protect against stains, moisture, and everyday wear. Regular resealing is recommended to maintain its appearance.
3. How do I clean limestone surfaces?
Limestone can be cleaned with mild soap, water, and a soft cloth. Do not use acidic or abrasive cleaners, which can etch limestone.
4. Is limestone slippery when wet?
No, limestone is slip-resistant when properly sealed. A honed or brushed finish is recommended for bathroom floors and shower surrounds.
5. How does limestone compare to granite or quartz?
Limestone is softer and more porous than granite or quartz, making it more suitable for decorative or low-traffic applications rather than heavy-duty kitchen use.
