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.

Countertops

14 years ago
I love this kitchen! It's gorgeous. Can you tell me... are the counters black or brown? I want to create a similar look but all of my furniture/ stools are dark brown.

    Hard to tell from the angle of this photo but the perimeters look like soapstone to me, in which case they'd likely be a blackish green if waxed.
