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.

Window Well

12 years ago
We have a window well for our rec room in the basement that sits right on our back porch. We added the windows and well merely for light reasons and does not need to be used as an escape (not needed for code reasons). I would love to find a window well (maybe a metal grate?) that would still allow light but could still be walked on. Any ideas?
