My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    I’m thinking about pietra grey for my kitchen island countertop. My research online for how it holds up to stains is all very contradictory. It will look great with my design but I’m very nervous about staining- or a white haze that I read about in one comment. Can you comment on your experience with the pietra grey? Thank you!
