My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

      Hi There! The countertops are Carrara Marble. Thanks, and good luck!

      Thank you so much. Do you have any idea how they are holding up?

      Of course, I just saw them last week... They've been installed for about two years and they look great!

      Thanks. Sorry to be a pest but I do LOVE this kitchen. Can you tell me about the light fixtures?

      I love your kitchen and have the same color -dove white-cabinets ordered with dark island. I was thinking of doing a marble backsplash also but everyone thinks I'm crazy to do marble counters. Told me to use super white quartzite. Any thoughts?

      There is nothing wrong with using marble countertops... We have also had great success with quartz products like Cambria. There are advantages to both products, but I'm not sure why everyone would think you're "crazy" for using marble. We use marble a lot with tremendous success.

      I used a 15 year sealer on my granite. Beginning stages of a new kitchen and would like to incorporate marble, do you use a sealer on it as well?
