    Price of natural stone flooring

    I’ve noticed the prices of natural stone tiles and flooring can vary greatly. Why would this be the case and does price usually mean quality or does it really depend? How can I best judge when a product is of good quality, regardless of the cost? I’d like to find some high quality examples so that I can consider them and weigh up my options for a new installation of tiles/flooring in different rooms throughout my home.

    Leaking Mono Mixer tap

    I have a Wilkes Siranne Mono Mixer tap on my bathroom sink. It's from about 2013 and has two rectangular knobs. The hot side is leaking and it likes to sing quite a bit. I've removed the screw, but cannot get the handle off. Is it worth attempting a replacement of the cartridge, or just go for a new tap? Thanks
