- De-icing salt
- Marine salt
- Hurricanes
- Strong wind
- Intense rainfall
- High humidity
- Desert heat
- Strong UV exposure
- Thermal cycling

- interior or exterior use
- pool exposure
- coastal salt
- food and drink exposure
- traffic
- moisture
- maintenance expectations
Sealing does not make limestone:
- Waterproof

- stain proof
- maintenance free
Treatments should be tested on representative samples.
Limestone Cleaning and Maintenance
General recommendations include:

Acid Sensitivity
Limestone contains calcium carbonate and is sensitive to acids.
Potential sources include:
- Vinegar
- citrus
- wine
- acidic bathroom cleaners
- descaling chemicals
- certain pool chemicals
- construction cleaners
- acid washing
Acid exposure may cause:
- Etching
- dull marks
- discolouration
- surface loss
Freeze–Thaw Maintenance
Cold-climate maintenance may include:
- Keeping drains open
- removing snow
- limiting unsuitable de-icing chemicals
- cleaning salt deposits
- checking joints
- inspecting loose pieces
- repairing damaged sealants
- replacing damaged units
Coastal Maintenance
Coastal projects may require periodic attention to:
- Salt deposits
- fixings
- brackets
- joints
- sealants
- horizontal surfaces
- façade ledges
- pool areas
Fresh-water rinsing may be considered where professionally recommended.

Stone should not be installed on frozen or unsuitable substrates.
Hot-Weather Installation
Hot weather may affect:
- Adhesive open time
- mortar curing
- substrate temperature
- rapid water loss
- movement

- adhesives
- oil
- rust
- welding
- metal grinding
- scaffolding
- heavy equipment
- construction traffic
- acidic cleaners
