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.

Very elegant! I have a question on grouting.

11 years ago
I am starting renovation very shortly. Floors will be a wood plank tile 6" x 24". Walls will be porcelain crema marfil look. I am thinking of using a 12" marble crema marfil base molding (not cheap!) Floors will have dark grout and walls will have light grout. Should I use the light or dark caulk where the marble meets the flooring?

    Thanks for your question. I would use the grout color that you are using on the wall for the caulk color.
