When most people think about limestone used in home building around Melbourne, they would picture a solid block structure that is built to last. While the durability of limestone is most certainly true, this image doesn’t do justice to the versatility and diversity of limestone and the profiles that specialists such as Bruhn Limestone can achieve.
Take a look at the images on this page and you’ll begin to understand what we’re talking about. These Melbourne homes are all built using limestone. They display the wide range of decorative profiles that Bruhn can now produce using limestone. These homes are still built using the durability and natural beauty of limestone blocks, but you could be forgiven for thinking they’re art installations.
Other benefits of using limestone for your new Melbourne home
- Limestone is a natural product. The limestone we use is supplied from either South Australia or Western Australia.
- Limestone may look like an expensive product, but it’s not. In fact, building with limestone is comparable to building with brick render. What’s more, Bruhn Limestone sells direct to clients right here in Melbourne, making our limestone products even more affordable.
- Limestone is a great insulator and has three times the thermal properties of standard bricks. This means your new home will be more comfortable all-year-round and will cost less to heat and cool.
- Building with limestone will also help to reduce noise from outside entering your home.
- Limestone is an excellent building material for homes built in bushfire prone areas.
- As we’ve mentioned previously, limestone is extremely durable.
