- Crate size
- Container loading
- Transport route
- Destination port
- Site unloading
- Storage conditions
- Lifting equipment
- Installation sequence
Large, curved and carved pieces may require custom supports and lifting plans.
Limestone Installation
Installation should be completed by experienced natural stone, façade, interior and landscape contractors.
Depending on the application, systems may include:
- Mechanical anchors
- Support rails
- Brackets
- Natural stone adhesive
- Mortar
- Structural grout
- Waterproof membranes
- Movement joints
- Drainage cavities
The correct installation system depends on the component, substrate, climate and engineering requirements.
Limestone Sealing
A breathable natural stone sealer may be considered depending on:
- Stone type
- Surface finish
- Interior or exterior use
- Water exposure
- Food and drink exposure
- Pool conditions
- Pollution
- Maintenance strategy
The sealer should be:
- Suitable for limestone
- Tested on samples
- Compatible with wet areas where relevant
- Compatible with the cleaning programme
- Applied according to the manufacturer’s instructions
Sealing does not replace correct design, waterproofing or maintenance.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Recommended maintenance practices include:
- Use pH-neutral natural stone cleaners
- Avoid acidic chemicals
- Avoid vinegar
- Clean spills promptly
- Remove oil and sunscreen marks quickly
- Maintain pool-water chemistry
- Inspect joints and sealants
- Keep drainage channels clear
- Remove biological growth carefully
- Avoid uncontrolled aggressive pressure washing
- Test all cleaning products before use
Acidic products can etch limestone and alter the surface finish.
