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.

    The desk is supported by steel brackets mounted to the wall studs.

    Do you have more details on the brackets?

    They are simple steel rods with a plate at the end that is bolted to the wall studs

    Could you elaborate on the steel rods and plate? What are the specifics i.e. dimensions, what type of steel ,material etc. How is the desk surface mounted to the rods? Thanks.

    A 1" steel rod is welded to a plate, which supports a plywood deck and the final countertop surface
