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 colors should we paint this house?

11 years ago

Metal exterior paneling and an ugly fireplace.... need help! Windows have been replaced and we have new roof - picture is not up to date.

    If the roof was done in brown tones, I would clean the chimney, paint the walls a light tan, and the trim milk chocolate brown. ...earthtones.
