Mind sharing who did the work? Need the same thing.


I had Paul Stewart with marble life come out. Was gonna be 1500$ to strip and seal island only (4x9) but I could tell he really didn’t wanna do it bc it’s a PITA. I bought maybe 5 boxes of baking soda and it covered less than 2 sq ft. Not a one visit and done job. Would’ve required multiple trips out. Anyway, the bathrooms, laundry room, and kitchen other than the island are in good shape and sealed. The island is a mess and I gave up. I’d rather replace it than spend 6 months stripping it.

Wow.

Did you learn the process online somewhere?

Ours has started to took like it's got stretch marks in it.

People who come over love it, but I see a million flaws every day and it's frustrating.

I don't understand how this rock can sit outside in La weather for months (or in a warehouse) and be beautiful the day it's put in, THEN start absorbing moisture once in a home. Grrr
