Pros and Cons of Natural Stone Wall Cladding

  • Weatherproof There is many types of natural stones that are usually applied to the exterior. One of them is andesite which is well-known for its superiority in terms of protection against tropical weather. Andesite is mold and mildew free. This would be advantageous for homeowners because they do not have to frequently apply an additional coating to the wall to prevent mold and mildew.
  • AbsorbentSome types of natural stone are suitable for an area that are damp or wet most of the time. Some other types like basalt absorb humidity easily, which will likely trigger moss growth. Make sure to choose proper natural stone and apply it where it is meant to be.

These materials can also be applied as a feature wall in a living room or an accent element on the exterior.

  • Hassle-free installation Natural stones are usually cut into slabs. At the present, the edging of each slab is getting more precise, allowing easier installation and a neater look. Stones like marble or granite also available in larger slabs. Although they could be pricier, applying, and maintaining larger slabs are easier.
  • Tend to be heavy Natural stones are solid material with uniform property throughout. This character of natural stones makes them heavier than other wall cladding like tiles, or timber that has more porosity. Because of its weight, installing natural stones as wall cladding should be done with careful weight distribution.
  • Timeless impression aside from the luxury and natural look, natural stones could also convey a timeless impression. This material has been used since the Roman empire and has not lost its elegance. Natural stones such as marble have uniform property, so it could be polished many times and still look like they are new.
