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.

Sink opinion?

14 years ago
Trying to decide between stainless and white fireclay for my new kitchen farmhouse sink. I like the stainless better but I'm worried about scratches on the front (jean rivets for example)... any thoughts?

    Small scratches can be removed from stainless steel. I've had success using a simple kit from Home Depot.

      What did you decide? I am trying to make the same decision. Worried about scratches too

      Me too, I'm trying to decide between those two as well.

      I decided to just go with the drop in stainless sink. In the end I was worried about the possibility of not liking the granite installation on the farmhouse style sinks. I had seen so many I did not like that I was worried how mine might end up in the end.

      This looks very much like the 33" apron sink from Lavello, which is available at http://www.lavello-sinks.com/33-inch-curved-front-single-bowl-farmhouse-apron-sink.html
