 This page is devoted to limestone cleaning.

Many buildings old and new in Chicago and the suburbs contain some form of limestone. For this reason, we offer limestone cleaning Chicago.

On one hand, the use of limestone on windows sills, cornices, capping, and highlight trim is common in Chicago. Like the building in the picture to the left.

On the other hand, many buildings, patios, and staircases are entirely made of limestone in Chicago.

There are two types of contaminants that affect limestone in Chicago. Atmospheric and Biologic. In other words. Carbon and mold/mildew.
