My house is made of limestone and is only a few years old…

Your entire house is made out of limestone? Or you have limestone veneer

[–] fartsparkles@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Limestone (thick bastard haha) but the inside is still stud walls, plaster board, etc. Quarry is nearby so it was practically a steal.

The way we build now is as cheap as will be safe. That's why we have engineers, it takes pretty extensive education to make someone able to make a bridge cheap enough
