"This is a story about a carpet cleaning company that needs to clean up its act. If my experience is any measure of how they do business, my advice would be to look elsewhere for rug and carpet cleaning services. To make a long story short, they charged me for services I never authorized, and then held my rug hostage until I paid to get it back from them. They also wasted a lot of my time. Longer version: I spoke twice with a woman named Vanessa about how much it would cost to clean an 8.5 x 12 oriental rug which appeared in excellent shape, had no noticeable odors, and seemed only to need a basic refresh/cleaning. She gave me a base estimate of around $350-450, but said it would cost more if their analysis detected pet stains or other issues. In both of the phone calls I had with Vanessa before the rug was picked up, not once did she disclose that I would be charged for anything associated with ABC Carpet’s “analysis” process. When I was then given an outrageous estimate of $1,098 to clean an 8.5 x 12 rug with no evident problems, I rejected their services and asked for the rug to be returned. I was then told I would be responsible for paying $173 for a disinfectant process they used on the rug upon its arrival, allegedly due to it showing “beetle damage.” No issues were visible to the naked eye before it was sent in, but Vanessa said beetle damage was becoming a more common problem in our area, possibly due to climate change, and that this could only be seen under their special black lights. She claimed that disinfecting our rug had been necessary in order to protect other rugs in their care. This raises a couple questions. First, why is it the customer’s responsibility to pay major charges because ABC Carpet does not have adequate measures in place to keep one rug’s issues from affecting others they have on hand for cleaning? Second, if this growing problem of beetle damage is a real thing, as Vanessa claims it is, why wasn’t it disclosed ahead of time that I would be charged a hefty fee for disinfection if beetle damage were discovered during the analysis process? After a time-consuming back and forth that did nothing but increase my misgivings about this company, it became clear that I was not going to get my rug back unless I paid ABC Carpet’s ransom. Now that I have the rug back, and I am out $173, I am sharing this story so that others can make a more informed decision about dealing with this company."

"I had a quote within 2 days. My card was declined by by bank and I had to approve the amount, that was thee only delay I had and it was my fault. I had to make a few adjustments to my order, and I was requoted at least by next day. Shipping confirmation came after the weekend, and I had trim pieces actually arrive before I received my shipping confirmation. Shipping actual flooring to me was curbside, I would have paid a bit more for the company to place in my driveway if given the option. Everything was palletized securely, and everything arrived without defects. Pricing came in better than expected, and better than quotes I received from other companies. Great experience, I will definitely be a returning customer."

The installation timeline varies based on project complexity, size, and whether you're removing existing materials. Simple tile installations generally progress more quickly than slab applications, which require precise measurements and custom fabrication. Your contractor should provide a specific timeline estimate based on your project's unique requirements and specifications.
Marble is naturally porous and benefits from regular sealing to protect against stains and moisture. While specific recommendations vary by product and usage conditions, consulting with your installer about appropriate sealing schedules for your particular installation will help maintain your backsplash's appearance and integrity over time.
Marble backsplashes command premium pricing compared to ceramic or porcelain alternatives but offer distinctive natural patterning that manufactured materials cannot replicate. They potentially enhance resale appeal for luxury properties, though they require more careful maintenance than some alternatives. For homeowners prioritizing unique aesthetics and willing to commit to proper care, marble often justifies its higher cost.
Working with marble presents significant challenges for DIY installation, particularly for slab applications. As the reference guide notes, "Working with marble is not an easy or recommended task. If you want to cut and install a slab backsplash, this DIY is a no-go." Even tile installations require specialized tools and techniques to prevent damage to this premium material. Most homeowners find professional installation provides better results and may ultimately prove more economical.
