Natural stone as an environmentally friendly
building material<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Borghamns Stenf\u00f6r\u00e4dling AB is one of the few companies in Sweden that specializes in restoring buildings and decorative elements. Our skilled master stonemasons have successfully completed several restoration projects, including limestone details at the Nordic Museum in Stockholm, windows at Link\u00f6ping Cathedral, and arches in Alvastra Monastery.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n

We restore Sweden’s beautiful buildings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

In Sweden, we have many beautiful historical buildings. One notable example is Link\u00f6ping Cathedral, which features stunning decorations, from detailed windows to intricate flooring. In the past, craftsmen used hand drills to extract limestone, but they often couldn’t choose the best stones suited for outdoor elements\u2014known as core stones. Instead, they had to work with whatever stone was readily available, even if it wasn’t ideal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, weather, wind, and air pollution have necessitated the restoration of these structures today. If the builders had been able to use core stones, as is common practice now, the buildings would have been much more durable over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
