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.

Glass cabinets

13 years ago
We're putting 2 large glass cabinets in our kitchen. What should we do for shelves? Is glass impractical in a cabinet that is going to be used for heavy everyday dishes, etc? We're going for a cape-cod/contemporary style home.
