Is marble appropriate to use in living areas?
Yes. Where and how you use marble depends on your lifestyle. This natural stone has been used since ancient times for architectural and structural purposes. Marble is used for flooring, walls, sculptures, table tops, countertops, walkways, stairways, and other household furnishings. Since marble is composed of calcium carbonate, this stone is vulnerable to acids found in some cleaners and various food products. It is important to use a cleaner made specifically for natural stone. 1/30/06 I am thinking about using natural stone for my countertops. Where can I meet marble and granite fabricators? Home and Garden shows are great! You can meet and interview many fabricators in one place. You can view slabs and samples, look at edge profiles, compare products and prices, and ask questions.
