Hi all, got an email from Mike Philbin today and I've been thinking about doing a stone restoration course and was wondering if any of you have heard of him? Or would you recommend a stone restoration course? Thanks Ross :thumbsup:

He's not far from me, and I also get tons of daft emails thankfully he's now taken me off his list! His marketing is very strange (inner circle and all that)!!but whatever floats your boat..he wants a grand to show you how to use twitter and Facebook ...good luck to him though! But I ain't buying it!.

Don't get me wrong , his courses look informative... just why? all the spamming , i get at least 1 a week from him.

As for courses. there are a few you can do .. try Marble life course.

Try Amir patwa in Staines you can spend a day with him and he doesn't charge a penny!! 


A day of seeing what it is about is great but it does NOT give you what you need to go out and do it for a living does it.

I thought the marble life one would be sealer orientated Andy ... but i have been in the stone game a lot of yrs and it takes more than 1 day to learn how to dress it down and bring it back to life.
