Sep 20, 2021

1. The settlement and tearing of the foundation part lead to the cracking and damage of the surface stone.

2. External damage may cause damage to the grindstone.

3, choose marble as the ground laying, there may be hidden dangers:

On the one hand, people often only pay attention to tonal when choosing stone, and did not consider marble and granite are in weather resistance and wear resistance difference.

On the other hand, most imported stone is marble.At that time, the processing technology of granite was not as advanced as it is now, and the color and style of marble were mostly elegant, which made it a fashion to choose marble for indoor use.This also is one of the main reasons that marble of stone ground problem is more.

4. Humid environment.

Marble's main ingredient is calcium carbonate, which expands in response to water, so the loose parts of the stone structure burst first, leaving a crater in the marble floor.The resulting craters will continue to be pulverized in the humid environment, causing qualitative changes in the surrounding stones.

5. Wrong protection methods.

For some owners and builders, even if they apply protective agent to the marble beforehand, problems can still arise when the marble is laid on the ground.On the one hand, cracks and loose parts of the stone were not well repaired, and the back of the stone was quickly destroyed due to the great pressure caused by water.

On the other hand, although the marble facade is also protected, water from the ground can also enter the stone along cracks and loose parts, increasing the moisture in the stone, thus creating a vicious cycle.

Wear and tear had spoiled the shine of the marble.

Marble has low hardness and poor strength.As a result, marble floors, especially those with more behavior, quickly lose their luster.Such as walking down the hall, at the counter and so on.
