New Sydney homes often carry the kitchen stone into the laundry for a consistent look, sometimes with a matching splashback and an undermount tub. It is a working room, with bottles, baskets and wet clothes on the bench every day.
Laundry chemicals are harder on stone than anything in the kitchen. Stain removers and descalers are commonly acidic, and a drip down the side of a bottle leaves a ring that shows on marble and limestone.
Film is a quick, low-cost addition when the kitchen is being protected.
