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.

Squeze out poison ivy, oak, sumac

20 years ago

Looking for a ground cover that will squeze out the bad stuff and tolerate a small amount of foot traffic which will be necessary to water the young redwood trees which are planted along a small creek.

thanks
