Frequently asked questions about sandstone window surrounds
A special natural stone adhesive that is solvent-free and elastic is generally recommended for natural stone window sills in order to prevent discoloration and stress cracks. Epoxy resin adhesives or silicone adhesives that are approved for use with natural stone are particularly suitable. It is important that the adhesive is neutrally cross-linking so as not to trigger a chemical reaction with the stone. Make sure that the substrate is clean, dry and stable before applying the adhesive. For greater stability, additional tile adhesive or mounting adhesive can be used, which are also suitable for natural stone.
Sandstone is a weather-resistant natural stone that is ideal for outdoor window surrounds and window sills. Its robust structure makes it resistant to frost, moisture and temperature fluctuations. A well-crafted sandstone window sill with a water nose also ensures that rainwater is drained away and the façade remains protected. In this way, the natural coloring is preserved for many years and gives your house an elegant ambience.
Sandstone window sills should generally be impregnated every 3 to 5 years, depending on the wear and weather conditions in the outdoor area. Regular impregnation protects the sandstone from moisture, dirt and frost damage without impairing its natural coloring or breathability. It is advisable to renew the impregnation as required, especially if you notice that water is no longer beading off well.
