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.

Dietes Roots

21 years ago

I am replacing several Dietes, however the roots are so very thick--a mass of roots. Is there an easy/pracical way of removing these roots?

Thanks a mil, Dewey
