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.

    A recent artical in the design section of our local paper said just that. More people are leaning toward a really great shower and skipping the tub.

    Not a problem as longas you can make the shower as generous as possible. Keep the entrance as all glass to make it seem even larger as well.

    Yes, especailly if you don't have the space for both a showr and a bath. Ideally, you have a bathtub in a secondary bathroom.
