"I highly recommend this company for granite repair. They promptly responded to my request and scheduled an appointment for the very next day. They arrived on time, were extremely professional, and repaired my granite countertop so flawlessly that you can’t even tell where the crack had been. The pricing was very reasonable, and the quality of the workmanship was pristine. Reliable, skilled, and highly professional from start to finish."

"The before and after of my bathroom is night and day. Almost nearly complete but already a huge difference in home quility and comfort. Was priced in a range I could afford and even fixed other problems that weren't seen prior without bleeding my wallet, so I'm pretty happy."
"This post is being shared as a mode of recommending. Perfection Roofing and Home Repairs. As a general contractors, they were great coordinator and communicators, even taking great pride in making sure we were apprised of all decisions. We were surprised to learn their estimates were even cheaper than we had expected. The project cost, 22K was 5K less than another reputable competitor.Senior citizens approach projects carefully, especially when new faces are involved. We felt comfortable at all times. A humanitarian side story involved how they took great care not to upset our aged dog."
"The installation went pretty smoothly. My parents loved it. However very early after the installment the issues started. We were told that after the jets were turned off that you had to wait several minutes before you could turn them back on. This however did not make much of a difference and it was and still is a guess as to whether the jets will come on at all. There has also been an issue with the seal of the door and the faucet leaking. They were pretty responsive initially. The people that came out were professional. With one of the issues with the tub's jets, we were referred to a repair specialist on the phone. The person tried to talk my husband through a repair. When my husband advised him he was handicapped and could not open the panel and look underneath at the circuitry.. they then very reluctantly sent out a repair person who came a few days later. The jet issues have never been resolved. Now when we have called to have them come out, they have made an appointment but just did not show up. My husband uses it as a shower only as he can sit down. However we are now getting estimates on having the tub removed and one like the original reinstalled. It was a very costly lesson. My mom has since passed away and my dad requires 24 hour care so is in a nursing home. My husband will go back to using the shower in the master bathroom with a seat as that is all he was getting with the expensive tub anyway. I am giving the company an overall C only because of their responsiveness and professionalism in the beginning. The tub was and is a piece of junk and I recommend that anyone who plans on getting a walk-in tub.. don't. At least the brand that Luxury Bath sells. "

Marble countertops are often considered better than limestone because of their superior durability and luxurious appearance. Marble is harder and less prone to scratching and denting, though it still requires maintenance and sealing to prevent stains and etching. Marble is typically more expensive, but its beautiful veining and range of colors offer a high-end look.
Baking soda can damage some countertops, but it makes an excellent mild abrasive for removing stains on other countertops. For example, never use baking soda on quartz or glass countertops, but you can use it on laminate and tile. Stay away from using it on quartz because it can scratch and damage the counter, and glass is prone to scratches. Since baking soda is a mild abrasive, you can only use it on certain surfaces.
Unfortunately, the product Bar Keepers Friend won’t remove etching from stone countertops. In fact, it can make it worse. Bar Keepers Friend contains oxalic acid, which can cause further damage to natural stones like marble or limestone.
In most cases, chipped or cracked granite can be salvaged, but it depends on the size and scope of the damage. For example, a pro can smooth out small chips on the edge with polish pads or an angle grinder, but a crack that runs through the stone's surface has little-to-no chance of being fixed easily.
No, you should not put a hot pan or pot directly on a quartz countertop. While quartz is generally heat-resistant, the resin binders used in its manufacturing are sensitive to extreme heat from items exceeding 150 degrees Fahrenheit. This can damage the resin, leading to discoloration, burns, or even cracking. To prevent permanent damage, always use trivets or hot pads for hot cookware.
