FAQ Sealing Limestone Walls

Whether or not to seal a limestone retaining wall is a matter of personal preference and the project's specific circumstances. Here are some factors to consider when deciding whether to seal a limestone retaining wall:

  • Protection against weathering: Sealing the limestone can help protect it from weathering caused by rain, wind, and sun exposure. Sealing can also help prevent the limestone from fading or discolouring over time.
  • Stain protection: Sealing can also help protect the limestone from stains caused by soil, leaves, or other debris that may collect on the wall.
  • Aesthetic appeal: Sealing can enhance the natural beauty of the limestone and give it a glossy or matte finish, depending on the type of sealer used.

On the other hand, some homeowners may prefer the natural look and texture of the unsealed limestone. Additionally, sealing the limestone can make repairing or replacing individual blocks more challenging if needed. Ultimately, the decision to seal a limestone retaining wall will depend on your preferences and the specific circumstances of your project. If you are unsure, it is recommended to consult with a professional contractor or designer to determine the best approach for your retaining wall.

After having worked with you and your team, I would have no hesitation in recommending your services to my colleagues and others. I have found you to be straight up and down [as I like] and always willing to help find the best solution [especially when it wasn’t the last solution]. In dealing with the public you have been reliable and have taken responsibility for ensuring any issues are resolved without the need for my involvement. Add to that quality of workmanship and a competitive price, and Creative Limestone has a compelling story to tell.

We purchased a difficult block that required a lot of site works and retaining, which was daunting at first. We had several contractors quote the work but found Mark from Creative Limestone to be the most friendly and professional by far. We quickly had a written quote and knew exactly what we were up for from the start. Mark would regularly contact us with updates, and once the site works started, our retaining wall was built promptly and finished perfectly. Mark helped us beyond finishing the wall with contacts for other trades and completing our site works ready to build. I have already recommended Creative Limestone to our friends and would not hesitate to call Creative Limestone if we need any work done in the future.
