09/10/2005: "Tile polished and honed / Fireplace"

For those of you that helped us with the tile thanks so much!! We should go into business together. We had this company come and refinish it and it looks 100% better. They removed all the raised parts by hand honing and then polished and sealed it. They also said we did a great job on the install and that when professionals install Travertine they use his service as the final treatment. Not sure if you can see the difference from the picture but come by and see it.

Here is the new addition. A stacked stone fireplace. Josh totally tackled this one head on. We were running out of time to finish and hired a company to complete it. They were totally suprised at his "stacking" skills. The supervisor said that what he had done so far was excellent. Of course we learned that stacked stone takes much longer than what you anticipate. They finished the job with 5 guys over 2 days.
