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.

Term 'Base is Tinted'

16 years ago

Could someone please explain what is meant by the above term and why it's important? I have ordered Clivias By Harold Koopowitz (from NZ in order to get it for a respectable price) but haven't received it yet, so I can't look it up at this time. Thanks
