Red Sandstone Pattern

Sandstones are used for various interiors such as outdoor flooring, wall cladding, indoor kitchen flooring. The water absorption characteristic of sandstone is very high compared to other natural stones. Therefore, a very good sealant should be made or it should not be used in wet areas (bathroom wall and floor, counter tops).

Sandstone cannot match slate or granite for durability, but it is strong enough to last for decades if properly cared for.

Sandstone has good slip resistance, even as a flat slab sawn when wet, and is therefore one of the most widely used stones for landscaping in wet and humid residential areas.

Due to the naturally porous nature of sandstone, it can absorb liquids and stain quickly if not cleaned properly. Do not wash your exterior sandstone floors when you think the weather might be frosty or icy, as this will shatter the plates.

The best sandstone cleaner and the best way to attack mold on sandstone walls is a chlorine bleach. Mix a cup of bleach water with about 3.5 liters of water and put it into a spray bottle. Concentrate the spray and then leave it for 10 or 15 minutes. Repeat the process before scrubbing it away with a scrubbing brush.
