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.

    We really like the white macauba quartzite in a honed finish, which is what we used here. Thanks for your interest in Studio Dearborn!

    How does the Macauba hold up? Does it stain, etch or chip?

    We haven't had any complaints. Its a very popular choice with my clients right now. People seem to love it. One client said that she was able to remove a wine stain herself using standard cleaning products. Your countertop fabricator will have advice on maintenance.
