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.

      Hello Whitney:
      The fireplace is Limestone from Salado Quarry. Beautiful stone. I wanted a real Old World feel to the fireplace. Once the stone was installed it looked too new. So we had the mason apply a few coats of "muddy water wash" (basically dissolved grout) and a translucent layer of white wash and it now has this incredible Old World look and feel. The hearth is hones Coral Stone and feels absolutely velvety. The owner loves it (and so do we).

      Please let me know if you have more questions.
