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.

Stippled ceiling- yes or no

13 years ago
We are building a new custom home. The kitchen and dining will have drop fir beams and pine tongue and groove. What should we do with hallways, mudroom, pantry, media room and living room that are all on the floor? Thank you!

    You won't regret going with flat ceilings, but will with stippled.
