The Marble Man - Restoration and Repairing of Limestone, Granite and Other Stone Countertops

Hiring them is a wise choice as they are aware of the unique demands of the specific stone and the correct procedures on how to polish them effectively without damage.

Natural stone restoration of limestone and granite…

Limestone and granite are natural stones but similar in composition. Limestone is a rock composed of calcium carbonate or a combination of calcium and magnesium. The limestone and marble you get in the market may be recrystallised limestone, travertine or compact microcrystalline limestone. 

If you take a look at limestone, you will find some unique characteristics in it. You will see spots of shell formations, fossil like shapes, honeycomb or open texture streaks, pit holes, formations like travertine, iron spots or even grain changes. The presence of any of these traits makes the beauty of limestone as a natural stone unique.

Granite, on the other hand, is an igneous rock made of a unique visible crystal-like formation. It is primarily made of feldstar and quartz. It has mica to a small extent and may contain the additional minerals of sphene, zircon, apatite, magnetite and ilmenite. The granite surface is generally white or grey.  The dark crystals’ presence provides it with a speckled appearance. 

Granite is the result of the magma that cools down deep under the surface of the earth. In most continents, granite is a general intrusive rock found on the surface of the earth.  There is also additional evidence that granite can be made by regional metamorphism without a molten or liquid stage involved in its formation. Both natural stones are generally used in kitchen/bathroom countertops and capable of taking in a polish to keep shining for a long time.
