Causes of stone floor damage
Publication Date : 2018-09-25

Reasons for stone ground damage:


1. The settlement and tearing of the foundation part of the ground cause crack damage to the stone on the surface.

2. The ground stone is damaged due to external damage.


3. The choice of marble to lay the ground from the stone holder will leave the future trouble. On the one hand, people tend to only pay attention to color tone when choosing stone materials, and do not consider the difference in weather resistance and wear resistance between marble and granite. On the other hand, marble was the most imported stone material at first. At that time, the processing technology of granite was not as advanced as it is now, and the color and style of marble were mostly elegant. This makes it a fashion to choose marble for indoor use, which is also one of the main reasons why there are more marble problems on the stone floor.


4. Natural defects of marble. Some marbles have many natural defects, such as cracks, sand holes, looseness, inclusion, etc. If these defects are not well repaired and remedied in advance, it will take the lead in causing lesions and damages in the defective areas and thus extend once they are laid on the ground and contaminated with moisture and some harmful pollutants. Like silver beige, golden beige, brown net, etc.


5. Wet environment. The main component of marble is calcium carbonate, which will expand under the action of water, so the loose part of the stone structure will burst open first, leaving a stone pit on the marble floor. The formation of this stone pit will continue to be pulverized in a humid environment, making the surrounding stones loose in qualitative change.


6, the wrong protection method. As far as some owners and constructors are concerned, even though they have painted marble with protective agent in advance, they still have problems laying it on the ground. On the one hand, it is because the cracks and loose parts of the stone have not been repaired well, and the back of the stone will be destroyed quickly due to the large water pressure generated by moisture. On the other hand, although the front of the marble is also protected, the moisture on the ground will also enter the interior of the stone along the cracks and loose parts of the stone, increasing the humidity of the stone, thus forming a vicious circle.


7. Abrasion damages the luster of marble on the surface. Marble has low hardness and poor strength, so marble floors, especially those with more behavior, will soon lose luster. Such as walking in lang, hall, counter, etc.
