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>

Can you use vinegar to polish marble?

• <div><p>No, you cannot use vinegar to polish marble. It is too acidic for cleaning or polishing and can etch the surface. Instead, opt for non-acidic cleaners made specifically for marble. Follow the manufacturer’s directions to ensure proper application and to protect the marble. However, a damp mop can be an effective marble cleaner when used appropriately and as long as moisture is immediately soaked up. </p></div>

Q: Is marble or granite better?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/marble-vs-granite.htm">Granite and marble compare</a> well against each other in terms of price, durability, and aesthetic appeal. Deciding which one is better depends on your personal style and preference. Both materials resist damage like chips and cracks well. You should seal both material types against staining and etching, but they&rsquo;re still susceptible if oil, wine, coffee, tomato sauce, or juice are left on the countertop long enough. As material and installation costs range similarly, the deciding factor is your budget, design, and preferences.</p></div>

Q: How often should I seal marble countertops?

• <div><p>How often you need to reseal marble countertops depends on the quality and color of the stone, the traffic on the surface, and the type of sealant. Sealing at least once a year is the general rule of thumb. However, if your large family loves to cook or the countertops are in a busy family bathroom, you might have to reseal them every six months (or more). The surfaces of your rarely used guest bathroom might not need resealing for a few years.</p></div>

Q: Can I repair a stone countertop myself?

• <div><p>Repair kits make it possible to do the job yourself for small chips or scratches. However, professional services ensure a seamless finish and prevent further damage.</p></div>

Work was well and promptly done. In addition, Ms. Carlsen reconditioned the caning on the rest of the chair, polished the woodwork, advised me on how to maintain the caning in the future and provided me with a "starter kit" for that future maintenance. Above and beyond......
