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.

Please give me some advice on what else to do. I don't want shutters, but if I NEED them..... My husband so no to painting the front door.

    Maybe with the black accents you have on your lights, railings and mailbox, you should paint the board that your house numbers are on black. Also I would suggest some larger plants across the front of your house with planters with taller plants on each side of your stairs next to the house to help frame your entryway. You can either put the planters right next to the front door or outside of the railings.
