YES its common especially on the shower pan floor...

. If you dont like the look of youre rugs polish.....inquire about onsite honing with youre stone professional. It likely would rerquire the whole room is taken down to hone w/successive grits

Assuming you have all natural stone throughout.- good luck

whoa i would so kill myself on that polished floor!

Only if your feet are wet and that is why there are mats in front of showers and tubs.

or if the person before left water on the floor. its a pretty look in the posters house tho.

Can you put polished marble hearth on a fireplace with honed travertine on wall?

Polished marble will be more slippery than the unpolished marble. Provide a latex-backed rug for better footing when the tub or shower is in use.

The question is addressing a hearth on a fireplace.
