Does vinegar work to clean a stone fireplace?

• <div><p>If you would rather use vinegar to clean the stone fireplace instead of dish soap, this mixture should work fine. Vinegar is slightly acidic, however, so it may etch some kinds of stone without quite a bit of diluting. For a stone fireplace, dilute it to about one cup of vinegar for every gallon of hot water. It’s a smart idea to test the diluted mixture in an inconspicuous area of the fireplace and watch for etching. You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/six-clever-ways-clean-vinegar.htm">use vinegar to clean</a> quite a few different items around your home, and it’s especially good at removing stains.</p></div>

What does a mason do?

• <div><p>A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:</p><ul><li><p>Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings</p></li><li><p>Freestanding stone or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/brick-wall-cost.htm">brick walls</a></p></li><li><p>Chimneys with wood-burning fireplaces</p></li><li><p>Cement block basement or crawl space walls</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Can I repair natural stone tile myself?

• <div><p>Minor chips can be DIY patched, but professional repairs ensure color matching, sealing, and proper refinishing.</p></div>

Q: Can stains on granite or marble countertops be removed?

• <div><p>Yes, stains can often be removed using a poultice paste that draws out the stain. The paste is applied, allowed to dry, and then removed, lifting the stain from the stone.</p></div>

Q: What should you not use on Silestone?

• <div><p>Silestone&reg; is a low-maintenance countertop material, but certain things, like strong chemicals and solvents, can cause damage. Abrasive scrubs can cause scratches, and products that contain oil or powder can leave a residue. Finally, avoid letting oven cleaner come into contact with Silestone&reg; because it can cause discoloration. </p></div>

They did a great job. Got a new tailgate installed and painted, and it was even cheaper than the estimate. I had a dent and scratch from a previous bump-up, and they buffed it out and touched up the paint at no charge. Highly recommend these guys!

Excellent experience. Most other places I called would not do anything with a crack larger than a quarter -- even though it was small extensions just 2mm beyond quarter size. Gaston Auto Glass told me to bring car in and we'd talk about what they could do. They sealed the extensions and...
