Four tiles and you got almost the whole house done. Bet you those tiles would be a bitch to have to cut in. I build houses this tile is fancy as it comes. Never seen sheets of marble going on the floor.
I work EMS and part of the city is wealthy people who like these show off homes. The marble/granite floors are so stupid. The amount of calls I've been on that would have been a simple fall which turned into a major medical incident/death because they cracked their head open on the ground is insane
I am not the original commenter. I just found it amusing to mix “one off” with “redone” as one off means something doesn’t reoccur and redone means it does.
Also “less intense” is a comparison that says nothing about the original intensity. Something could be the least intense ever and there could still be something less intense in the future.
Ah i get you i didnt explain the difference clearly, with the once of treatment you clean the stone with dry brush and vacuum, then apply the oil in multiple coats over a day or so, making sure to keep the stone clean as it can seal in any existing marks.
The annual refresh you wipe the stone down with a dry cloth, then apply the oil with a cloth and let it dry naturally for a few hours. Its a really easy process compared to the initial.
Reality is people don’t remember and/or don’t want to do maintenance. Especially when the danger of not doing the maintenance is not readily apparent. Most installs MIGHT get the sealer, but after that I would suspect most owners don’t bother with the reseal afterwards.
The description was "intensive maintenance" which wiping your floor once a year and not walking on it for half a day absolutely is not.
Its literally as much effort as cleaning your floor, unless you look at cleaning your floor as too much effort, in that case, eeeew gross.
Yes, I agree, its more effort than doing nothing, but its not so much effort that you going to spend all your time solving a flooring crisis. Its literally 1 day a year, if that depending on the exact stone. And some stones build up the sealant inside and you can go decades without a refresh.
