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.

What is that countertop? I've never seen anything like it.

    Hi Mathiasrav4, I checked with a local bay area stone purveyor (the kitchen in the photo was near Boston) and she believes the countertop is lapidus gold. Thanks for your question.

      Hi there, It's been awhile since that kitchen was installed and to be honest, I just don't recall the name. However, I will do a little sleuthing and will see if I can find out for you.

      I know it has been a long time, but do you know where the granite counter top was purchased? I am in the Boston area. Thank you in advance!

      Hi Winston, I wish I could remember. My client flew me to Boston and we visited several (many!) granite yards. Good luck!

      I love the little cookbook nook. Great idea!

      I like the countertop too. I’m so tired of everything being black and white.
