Marble is divided into calcitic and dolomitic. Calcitic marble, which is also the most common, scratches more easily and is attacked by acidic liquids such as lemon, vinegar, wine and strong cleaners. Dolomitic marble, such as Thassos marble, is harder and has better resistance to acids, though it is not on par with granite. Granite is an igneous rock, considerably harder, and is not affected to the same degree by everyday use or by acids.<\/p>\n

For a kitchen countertop, where the surface is exposed to cutting, heat and grease, granite is generally the recommended choice. It keeps its appearance for many years without special protection. Calcitic marble can be installed on a countertop, provided placemats are used and liquids are wiped up immediately. Dolomitic marble is the safer marble choice for the same space.<\/p>\n

Both are used for indoor floors and staircases. The usual slab thickness is 2 cm and up, depending on the span and support, with a finish that limits slipperiness when the surface gets wet. A high-gloss surface is not preferred on stairs. In bathrooms and damp areas a matte or anti-slip finish is recommended. Granite generally tolerates moisture better. With marble, a waterproof substrate reduces the risk of stains and efflorescence from the back side.<\/p>\n

Marble is often used for fireplace surrounds, as long as it does not come into direct contact with the flame. The distance from the firebox depends on its type. The slab inside the firebox is not decorative marble; a heat-resistant material is required. For window sills and living-room cladding, marble is a sound choice, provided it is not exposed to acids.<\/p>\n

Durability cannot be judged from a photo. It depends on the thickness, the finish and the uniformity of the batch. The veining differs from slab to slab.<\/p>\n
