The bedroom so far! Finally have our carpet in which is lovely (pale silvery grey) and the wall is painted in the engraved locket. I liked it so much that I bought another tin and have painted my dining room wall in it just to give the White a break! Lol. The other side with the silver furniture is the alcove Minnie - which I painted in strong white and now have a small wardrobe there (space to build a shoe rack to the side of it) We are going to get quotes for having a mirror fitted (frameless) next week to bounce more light around. We are off shipping for bed linen now! Then I just need a headboard

Marble is a very porous item and can therefore stain specially with bathroom products that contain colour. as stated by Victoria.If you can get a solid surface trim to go round bath than that I feel is better than tiling because of the possibility of standing water on the edge and therefore grout blackening.Tile face to bath panel is fine tho its the flat area that is the problem.

Hi Derek I would not worry too much about not sealing them - the argument still rages as to how much of a benefit or nuisance sealing is. The first step for cleaning is to simply try jet washing them with a domestic jet wash that you can buy from a DIY store. Be careful not to wash the mortar between the slabs too aggressively because depending on your washer, it can damage it. If you have a lot of algae and stain marks then it is probably worth adding in a proprietary cleaner as well. It is worth getting one from a supplier of stone, rather than a generic one from the DIY store as you want to make sure it will do the job but not damage the stone. I don't know where you are in the country, but London Stone are a good choice in the South East https://www.londonstone.co.uk/paving-tile-ancillaries/natural-stone-cleaners/ Like carpets, patios do need cleaning a couple of times a year, depending on how clean you like them to look.
