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.

Introduction

13 years ago

Since I replied to a couple of posts I decided to introduce myself. I'm Susan, owned by 2 cats & 1 mixed breed dog. I live in East Tennessee. I'm an avid birder (birdwatcher) half-hazard gardener & terrible housekeeper. But I do like to decorate, especially for Christmas. I figure by using the window candles-the orange/yellow kind-no one sees the dust. They work for Halloween too! Another holiday where my housekeeping isn't important. I have lurked from work for several years but was afraid to post for fear of my boss. Now I finally have computer at home so here I am. I love all the support ya'll give each other & no sniping like some forums. I seldom set tables like many of you as I live alone but once in awhile I'll put out my Fiestaware or Great Grandmother's china just to look at it-until the cats bother it & back it goes. Probably way too much info.
Susan
