Choice of stone type

\ Home \ Technical \ Choice of stone type

When choosing the stone for your project, included in the items we would expect to be taken into consideration are;

  1. Area Location
  2. Climate
  3. Type of construction
  4. Colour and texture required
  5. Stones which have been successfully utilised in this area in the past
  6. Test data indicating the properties of the stone

When selecting the stone, availability, both in total quantity and of any special requirements of the particular project (e.g Large Bed Heights, Long Heads over openings, Deep Cornice stones) together with the capacity to produce the required quantity in the necessary time-scale should be considered.

The requirements of every project are different, and so there is no 'definitive rules', which can be applied to all natural stone projects.
