Most of the stone buildings throughout Edinburgh are built of relatively thick stone walls. Many of these walls are Ashlar dressed, coursed sandstone which are pointed and built with lime mortar. This traditional building method enables the building to breathe. A lot of the older buildings in Edinburgh have been repaired over the years using modern materials such as cement, gypsum plaster and modern paints. This has in some cases led to some damage to the stonework, and has resulted in the need for extensive stone repairs. By repairing traditional buildings with modern or non-traditional materials this will accelerate stone decay. Similarly, the materials used in the construction of stonemasonry buildings in Edinburgh were sourced from local quarries such as Craigleith or Hailes to name a couple. A lot of these materials fell out of use after the 1920s so were replaced with modern substitutes.
