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.

Getting rid of Russian sage

13 years ago

I had about 10 feet of Russian Sage dug up. When I went to plant some roses in it's place, I found a lot of roots left behind. Are these going to cause problems later? Is there something I should do to "sanitize" the area.
