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.

Backsplash color? Is it white or an off white grey color?

11 years ago
Does the cabinet color match the tile exactly as it appears in the picture? Can't tell if the tiles are close to Hazy Skies color or white?
Thanks

    The tile is white- I know it's not completely clear in the photo.

    love the countertops. Of course they are marble, right? Or is it a quartzite, what is the name of it?

    Yes, the stone is Calacatta Oro Marble, the real stuff, not quartzite. (: Hope that helps!

    Yes, the real stuff! However, the real stuff etches like hell...quartzite is natural stone also and I tested it.....it did not etch. All a matter of choice and stress!

    I hear you. It's definitely a personal preference- life is too short to stress! The real material just has so much soul, depth and beauty, it's just hard for me to pass up. I see it used on so many bar, cafe, and restaurant surfaces that I have to believe there must be some way of maintaining it. I think part of might be just not minding the worn look. But, if anyone knows how it is maintained in commercial environments, I'd love to know. Thanks! L
