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.

Outside material

11 years ago
Could you please tell me what was used on the outside of the house? We are about to build and I would love to achieve this look. Thanks!

    Thanks for the question. The outside is covered with a "board batten" and can be created several ways. Your general contractor will know the process. The color is Benjamin Moore---China White. Hope this helps.

      What color facia and soffits were used. I want to paint our house white but not stark white. Can I still use white soffits if my house is a little off white like shoji or Navajo white?
