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.

Will these trees make good lumber?

11 years ago

I've got 2 fallen catalpa trees that have remained unmoved since October. I'd like to have them sawn for furniture and or fence posts. Is there any reason that these would be ruined for that purpose after sitting out for that time?


Thanks.
