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.

How to drain water from sandbox?

18 years ago

The sandbox is on the patio and it's kept covered to try and keep animals out of it. The sand never really drys out so need ideas on how to get air flow to dry the sand.

Thinking that if its raised with a hard bottom with drainage holes the water can drain and air flow will help to dry the sand. Will it work and any more ideas to offer?
