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.

Tree is barking

13 years ago

I got this big tall tree in my grass grass garden. I open my blinds to get a nice view and my sight was greeted by a bunch of gaping wounds on its side. I fear it is dying. It is my best tree. How can I save it?
