::: Can't Decide? Bell Island Stone vs. Nova Scotia Limestone:::

Two popular stones for natural walls in Newfoundland right now are Bell Island Stone and Nova Scotia Limestone.  One comes from Newfoundland ( Bell Island, no kidding!) and Nova Scotia. 


For a finished wall,  both end up being around the same price and here's why:


Bell Island stone is local, so, shipping prices are lower. It is also harder to cut therefore driving the labour price up.


Nova Scotia Limestone on the other hand has higher shipping costs attached to it but it's easier to cut.  Therefore labour price is a little less.


In case price is a consideration ( and let's face it; it always is!) both run around the same price.  Now all you have to do is decide which one you LIKE best!
