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.

    Does this come in individual pieces or panels (multiple pieces pre-arranged together)?

    Would you recommend bluestone for an interior use? Ive seen it in kitchens and it's gorgeous. Thinking about using it for kitchen/great room/dining room...

    Bluestone is porous so will stain. It's surface is typically uneven so may not be comfortable when shoeless and may be a bit more challenging to clean. If the comfort level is acceptable to you, I recommend that you get a sample, treat it with the sealer recommended by your stone supplier, and then abuse it with your food, beverages and cleaning products. If you are happy with the result and can live with the recommended sealant application schedule/process than go for it.
