Description

Modern construction materials are impressive in their appearance and characteristics. However, building materials that have been used for thousands of years are still being utilised in home renovations and construction projects today. Since limestone is such a versatile and extremely durable stone material, we at Design Tiles have a wide range of limestone tiles on offer.

Limestone is a beautiful, natural rock composed mainly of seashells, skeletal fragments of marine organisms such as corals and molluscs, and other marine sediments. Depending on the region in which limestone was formed, its colour varies from soft whites and creams, to jet black.

Limestone is the best example of a historic building material that is still recognised and popular today. This stone material was favoured by ancient Egyptians and was used as the main building material for the famous Great Pyramid in Giza, which is still standing today. This is testament to the weathering resistance of this versatile, natural stone.

Design Tiles always recommends ordering an additional 10-15% on top of your order to allow for wastage. For larger format tiles like 600x1200mm, 750x1500mm, 900x1800mm or larger please allow for 20% extra waste. Some rooms will require more cuts which generally means more wastage. Always confirm your quantities with your builder or tiler before proceeding with your order. Also, if you are purchasing tiles that are discontinued or on clearance its always worth buying extra as that tile, or batch of tiles may no longer be available from the manufacturer if you need to cover wastage.
