Common Limestone Problems

Limestone’s soft, porous nature makes it prone to a few issues:

  • Absorbed stains. Oil, water, and spills soak in fast and leave dark marks.
  • Etching. Acidic foods and cleaners dull the surface.
  • Surface wear. Limestone scratches and wears faster than harder stones.
  • Dirty, dull appearance. Dirt settles into the stone’s texture.
  • Water marks in bathrooms. Hard water and soap leave film on limestone showers and vanities.

Our Limestone Care Process

  1. Inspection. We check the limestone’s finish, density, and condition, and test how it absorbs water.
  2. Preparation. We protect nearby surfaces. Our technicians can move small, light furniture. We don’t move heavy or fragile items, so please clear those before we arrive.
  3. Gentle cleaning. We use pH-neutral, stone-safe products and adjust our technique to the stone’s softness.
  4. Stain treatment. We draw out or lighten absorbed stains where possible.
  5. Honing, if needed. Etching and wear are removed with stone honing. Limestone usually looks best honed rather than highly polished.
  6. Sealing. Because limestone is so absorbent, sealing is especially important. If we seal, allow 24 to 48 hours for the sealer to cure before normal use and mopping.

Aftercare for Limestone

  • Use only pH-neutral stone cleaner.
  • Blot spills, don’t wipe. Wiping can spread a spill into more stone.
  • Use mats at entries to keep grit off the surface.
