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.

Did you need to clean store after installation?

5 years ago
I am doing an outdoor BBQ area with this same stone veneer. They just started the install today, but mine looks a lot duller. Did you have to have the stone cleaned up when the installation was complete?

    Sorry for the delayed response...Typically if it is man made stone you should clean it as you go. If you don't the mortar will be stuck on there for life. If using anything acidic based to clean man made stone it WILL discolor the stone so you would not want to do that. Thanks!
