If you use the search button and type 'chatahoochee' in the box, you will find a whole bunch of prior discussion on the topic. (My posts included)
I was at first hesitant, mainly because there weren't lots of people around offering this service/application. After seeing it applied (Youtube) I can understand why. This is a specialty field, not an additional service you could easily 'add on' to your existing business.
I discovered that my Hubby has relatives who are native Floridians. Turns out they have had Chatahoochee river rock for over 20 years. They have had it professionally re-sealed twice in all that time. They LOVE it, and it is heaven to walk on.
P.S. This rock really IS shipped in from the Chatahoochee river. Numerous, different colored granite outcroppings provide the color mix. Nature polishes it into very tiny, smooth mini pebbles.
Matt Allums really did a superb job for us! We now have it everywhere outside except on the driveway, as we live in a CYV and installation there is not permitted... but we do have it IN the garage. I look forward to enjoying ours for a VERY long time.
