you mentiones sacriledge by not saving the floor .
here is apic of a floor i laid only 3 months ago and not even applied final wax.
client decided it was too good for the utility so had a ploish guy dig it up and replacing witha a very expensive not that nice paris ceramic stone instead.
my floor had been down for 200 years in gendarmerie ( police station ) in france before being reclaimed and shipped to uk.originally laid in lime /sand so easy to reclaim. i laid in flex fast set and whole floor gione in the skip. 15sq mt utility floor will have cost the client 15kk in the end .

same job but different stone.that was the kitchen stone that was from same place in france.
it was 30mm bigger than the stone used in breakfast room. what we had left over from breakfast room was laid in utility.
only difference was that breakfast area had black cabachons and utility i made the cabachons out of field stone so it was same colour.
