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.

Would this make a good rain barrell?

16 years ago

Dh wants to get one, but I'm afraid there will be residue even after cleaning with a degreaser. It would only be for flowers, nothing edible. Safe or not?

330 gallon tank on craig's list
