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.

my poor path...

12 years ago

my path is not doing well this year, looks horrible. extra fertilizer hasn't done much to help, so i unpotted it today and found tons of tiny eggs all in the soil - yeck! but also that root ball is right to the edge of its 12" pot - can you say roasted roots? the roots are so thick i can't get in between them at all either. that pile of dirt was all that i got off the roots - not very much at all.

so now its got a new bigger pot so that the roots can grow and not get toasted by the heat - hopefully it will be happier now.
