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.

Are the beams support beams or decorative. Is the wood on the ceiling real and how is it installed?

14 years ago
Are the beams structural? What is the product used on the ceiling, how is it installed, is there drywall under the ceiling?

      Judging from the pitch I would guess structural....the ceiling is likely T & G with construction sheathing behind it.

      The beams are decorative and the ceiling is tongue and groove pine. No sheetrock below!

      What company did you get these decorative beams from? I love this!

      My "beams" are boxes constructed from boards.

      Hello. Further to the previous question. Was the t&g installed behind the rafters or in between? Thank you.
