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.

Peeling Bark

21 years ago

We planted a maple tree a month ago. The bark is beginning to peel at the base and it is split up to a height of four feet. Any ideas why this would happen and if it will live?
