The person answering the phone said she would make sure Daniel called me back but never did. I told them I wasn't expecting a freebie but they still wouldn't get back to me. My builder finally found someone who immediately came out, fixed it and told me it was installed incorrectly and was nearly to the point of falling down on its own. I used Ventura Stone for another house we own and was very pleased with the service and they were 1/3 the price.

They never once showed up when they said they would, sometimes hours late and sometimes days without notification. made nu attempts to reach them regarding scheduling and the lack of communication but no luck there. The latest is that the holes they cut for the electrical outlets are too small. I'm quite certain that there will be no response to my pleas about this issue so now I have to hire a costly electrician who may or may not have a solution for me. The whole fiasco was annoying and extremely frustrating and I would never recommend this business to anyone.

Recently, I bought a house that had very shiny marble kitchen counters. I can't emphasize enough…read morehow much I dislike shiny! NO SHINY in my house. So I set out to research how to have someone "hone" my counters. Bingo! found a local guy who came and did the job for me only to realize marble still etches (stains you can't get out). UGH!! Everytime you use any type of citrus that could spray onto the counters ( think squeezing a little lime into a gin and tonic!) There's just no avoiding it and boy is it irritating! it's an instant stain you will never get out! Long story, but I just happen to see a commercial on TV talking about "Tuff Skin", basically a coating that protects your counters and can't etch! BINGO! and it comes in shiny or "honed"......it's a dream! it never etches and my marble counter looks perfectly new! In addition, it's much cheaper than replacing the counter which I mulled over for months! Also, the company that provides this is the only company in Santa Barbara county licensed to do this and they are incredibly professional, on-time and they will go out of their way to make sure everything is done to perfection. I really couldn't be happier!!

I am sorry i don't have before and after but will try to find some older images and update. Here is what you need to know: 1. Skip gives the estimate. He and Brandee are the owners. They are the only ones in the area with the license for the TuffSkin. 2. They used a low dust diamond like abrasive tool to get out the etches often from glasses and citrus. Keep in mind we had a DIFFERENTcompany come out a year before hand and they made a mess, did not get all of the etching out and peeled off our custom tape in their hurry to take down plastic. Low dust, Precision and Attention to Detail. And they got out the etching!! 3. Then they put on the Tuff Skin that can then withstand citrus, many chemicals and heat. It cannot take scratching from moving a computer around or such. We don't know what caused all the scratching. I prefer the scratches to the etching, though and the place looks great!! 4. We had a few speedbumps and Skip handled it like a pro. This is the test of a great business. We are so grateful to Skip, Brandee, his foreman and team for their diligence, care and integrity!. I would recommend them 100% and indeed I have!
