Landscape Marble
Welcome to Colonial Floor Care’s Marble Cleaning blog! We are South Florida’s floor care experts!
We were looking through our files to show you great examples of different kinds of marble and granite surfaces to demonstrate the work of our floor care experts, and in addition to those, we came across this magnificent example of what is called Breccia or “landscape” marble. This image, which clearly resembles a city skyline or even trees, are actually natural patterns created when this marble is formed. This marble was once commonly used as inlays for furniture and other decorative pieces.
At Colonial Floor Care, we know marble. We specialize in marble polishing, granite polishing, flooring of all types (travertine, terrazzo, concrete, marble, granite). We also provide expert care for marble countertops, granite countertops, and concrete polishing.
According to wikipedia, In most home construction, the term marble refers to any crystalline calcitic rock useful as building stone. Tennesee marble, for example, is actually a granular fossilferous gray to pink maroon Ordovician limestone that geologists call the Holston Formation. Unlike some materials such as slate, marble and granite are easily cut and manipulated, while providing a durable, beautiful final product.
Knowing what kind oof marble you have tells us alot about its unique properties, and therefore the best way to carefully restore, polish and clean it.
