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.

Material for kitchen back splach

12 years ago
What do you think about polished marble mosaic for back splash in a busy kitchen? I am hearing different opinions, one that it will stain easily with oil, tomatoes etc. even if marble is sealed. Others saying that marble is a good back splash material. Could I get a professional's and user's opinion? Thank you all for help.
