What stone for my hall / toilet?

[Davesax]

Can't quite afford sandstone , like the look of the tumbled trav and the missus he just found some pics of tumbled limestone . We like the lighter ( in colour ) natural stone look .

Difficulty of job is also a factor as I don't have too many stone jobs under my belt

Thanks for any help

Dave,

I've just checked the cost of that sandstone. It works out at around £40 per sqm according to their website and I'll be able to get you a discount from that, if it helps you in your decision making?

Tumbled limestone will look really good but be aware that a lot of care will be needed when fixing. If you go the limestone route I would probably advise sealing them up prior to installation as they will mark easily.

Thanks Daz that's food for thought - now I need to think about how the extra height affects things .
Be in touch

Also, the lighter the limestone the higher the price.. white limestones are pricey..

Tumbled Travertine will be a better price..
