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.

Can anyone identify this stone?

7 years ago

Any thoughts on what this is?
Granite? Marble? Quartzite?

    There is no such thing as a soft quartzite. Quartzite is harder than granite or it is not quartzite. Quartzite does not etch or scratch.

    That is great looking stone.
