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.

    I want to try to accomplish this myself in my back yard. How much excavation is required? Is there a sand layer or anything else under the pebbles? Thanks!

      This looks like it has a steel edge. A brick soldier course edge also looks nice.
