Are there certain stone products that are designed for use inside or outside of a structure?
Limestone is a durable stone and is good for outside. We recently finished a home on Lake Huron that had limestone window surrounds. Granite is the most popular for inside the home. Q: What is the cost of these products? A: Limestone, which is quarried in Indiana then shipped to us in slabs, is pretty pricey. Granite and marble are high-end too, but not as much.
