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.

Stained cement

12 years ago
Can you tell me the details of the floor? How durable is the finish? How costly? Thanks in advance!

    It is a stained polished concrete and yes it's very low maintenance and pretty cost effective. About 3.00 to pour, about 1.00 a foot for sanding and another 3.00 to stain. It is pretty durable but just like most floors it will scratch if you are not careful. I would recommend heating the floors which will also save money in the future on energy bills.
