Hi, Seeking professional help to assess and restore some stains, and impaired finish of honed French limestone in Chicago, IL 60610. Thanks, Tom
Dear
I seldom recommend a stone restoration contractor, unless I know him or her for many years.
I consider stone refinishing as the very pinnacle of all the activities related to stone from a professional point of view. Unfortunately, there are a lot of quacks on the loose out there! You get one of those, and you may have to kiss your stone bye-bye!
How could you tell a champ from a chomp? Could you trust the recommendation of your local stone distributor, or contractor, or your interior decorator? Hardly!
We have available a very comprehensive article on how to select a bona fide stone restoration contractor, which will give you all the intelligence you need to make a competent choice. It does carry a small price tag, and you can order it by logging on the Educational Literature section 0f our website at:
http://www.marblecleaning.org/literature.htm. It's available in pay-per-download format and I consider it a cheap “insurance premium” to pay when there are thousands of $ involved! Not to mention the little and much needed support you'd be giving to the cause – YOUR cause, since every single penny of the cost of the article will be used to support it.
Also, will you please read and sign our Statement of Purpose at:
http://www.marblecleaning.org/purpose.htm? By spreading the word about this valuable site among your friend & family and the stone trades' people you've been dealing with you will be rendering everybody a valuable service!
Moreover, do take advantage of the plethora of FREE Helpful Hints available at:
http://www.marblecleaning.org/helpful-hints.htm. They're on the house!
Thank you.
Ciao and good luck,
Mauri
