I have been meaning to thank you for all of your help this year. I learned so much in class back in January, and took so much more home from our group conversations. My sales are reaching new highs month after month, referrals are growing, and I even raised my prices by more than 10%. In fact I just completed restoring a condo lobby last week and I earned the job even being 10% higher than the highest of all bids.
My wife thinks I walk with a new swagger since I returned from class in Jan, and business is amazing.
Since I picked up great "hands-on" experience from the class, I was able to convey a lot of different techniques and theories to even my most veteran employee polishers - and they definitely have a new-found respect for me too.
I look forward to more classes and continued posts on your site.
Thank you once again!
Thanks for everything this weekend. I just joined. Now I just need to get those flight tickets and accommodations for you. How much notice do you need?
HEy Jo, I went back down to the members area and tried to get into the video area and I do not have a password for it. Could you PM it to me?
Thanks

Jo - I have been dealing with a new marble floor that has some problems that are dealing me fits and I was wondering if I could get a little direct help from you. I have pictures and samples I can send. I also have a owner, installer, manufacturer and local sales rep that are looking to me for some answers pretty quick. Could I send some pics and a sample of the original stone, and hopefully one that I can duplicate the problem with, to see if you could help? I would appreciate it.

Josveek Huligar was born in Anguilla, BWI. He relocated to New York in 1992. His first exposure to the trade of Natural Stone Restoration was in a Building Maintenance training program offered by Royal Realty in Manhattan. Huligar mastered the expertise required in the 4 month program in 2 weeks and was hired by the organization to restore the natural stone in 15 commercial properties in Manhattan. Thus he expanded his knowledge, capability and proficiency. After “learning by doing” with the organization for two years he became acquainted with Mr. Donnatelle of Eastern Marble Granite Supplies. Mr. Donnatelle mentored and expanded Mr. Huligar’s expertise in natural stone restoration and preservation as a source of growth and inspiration to Huligar from 1994 to the present. Huligar experienced major difficulty finding experts in the industry to learn from and share information. In 2004 he spearheaded the formation of the Natural Stone Restoration Alliance- www.nsraweb.com - to provide current and prospective professionals with mentors and resources to expand knowledge on natural stone restoration and preservation. With the agenda of education, Mr. Huligar and the founding members of the NSRA established an internationally renowned “hands- on”, one on one tutoring program. This unique class known as “boot camp” established a training program unsurpassed and now, highly imitated in the industry. While other programs may tout being the best, they all copied a page from the originator. If there is still any doubt on who is considered “the expert” in top polishing and stone restoration by the industry, consider this: Josveek Huligar was specifically chosen to repair The Freedom Stone; the World Trade Center Memorial by the U.S.A. Huligar not only polished the stone but also made major repairs to the granite which is still unnoticeable today.
