What is Limestone?

Limestone is a carbonate sedimentary rock that is primarily made up of calcium carbonate such as calcite or aragonite. Limestone can be sourced in Australia and there are many untapped high-quality deposits in many areas. As mentioned, Limestone is a sedimentary rock, this also means that fossils are often encapsulated in them- as such, history!

What causes Limestone degradation?

Although durable, limestone is still a porous material. Exposure to the atmosphere and weather causes erosion. Rain also affects the mortar and can causes fretting, leading to deterioration and discolouration.

Why is Limestone used in construction?

Not only a natural material Limestone is also highly versatile. Limestone can be used for building, rendering/cladding, paving/tiling, and coping. In Western Australia, locally quarried limestone, typically yellow limestone, have been used since the late 19th century (1800s).

One of the most durable natural building materials, Limestone is weather-resistant, which means that it wears the weather without impacting structural integrity. Versatile and durable, many of the late 19th century and early 20th century structures still exist today. Think about the quintessential and no doubt, iconic, Fremantle area.

How do Timeless Restorations preserve and Restore Limestone?

To start, our experts will assess the Limestone and determine the best course of action. Generally, we will recommend one or a combination of the following:

Limestone Cleaning

Our relentless passion for history and dedication to preserving historical works makes us the best people for your restoration project.

Limestone Resurfacing

Enhances waterproofing, increasing the limestones resilience. 

Limestone Wall Stone Replacement

This is usually required when there has been substantial damage. Individual stones or sections are removed and replaced. Our experts are able to colour-match the new stones with the existing ones for seamless perfection.

Limestone Repointing

Repointing addresses any decayed mortar. Any gaps or cracks in the mortar allows moisture into the stonework. Keeping on top of this preserves the structural integrity of the stonework.

Limestone Tuckpointing

Tuckpointing is a delicate aesthetic process of restoring limestone by adding a contrasting linework to highlight the shape of the stone or a more close-matched linework for a seamless blend.

10 Year Guarantee

We believe so strongly in the quality of our service, that we back it with an industry leading 10 year guarantee!

We are so impressed by this company. They are very professional in all aspects of the work, from being responsive and on time and providing an itemised written quote. Their work on our stone and limestone walls was carried out in consultation as to what I wanted. When they were finished there was no mess, dirt and the walls look brilliant. I highly recommend this company and commend their timely, polite professional work.

Professional. Reliable. Reasonable. Nikolai and Ashley were skilled, generous with knowledge and advice and worked to a high standard. They showed up on time and were easy to deal with. They diagnosed a long standing wall crack problem, replaced a rusted out lintel and repaired sections of a house wall for me and also advised about and repaired sections of a brick boundary wall around my 1930s residence. Their quotes were also competitive. Highly recommend.

Ashley and his team worked on the side wall of my old post war home in October 2023. The render had been bubbling and coming off for a while due to the weather and bricks were crumbling. The plan was to strip the render and tidy up for the new render. I don't know anything about this work but I could not fault them. It looks so beautiful seeing the red brick underneath. Ashley was lovely and easy to deal with, the work was completed below expected price in the end and it was all cleaned up with no mess. They could have continued to charge me the full price in the quote, I would have been none the wiser but testament to his honesty he reduced the price. I cannot recommend these guys more highly. Please consider them for any jobs. I'm planning on using Ashley again to tuck point and repair the front of my home.
