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.

How to do this?

11 years ago
Hi,

How did you lay the stone pieces? Are there many steps? I'd like to do this myself. Is that DG on the patio area?

Thank you!

    Hi Lynneymay,

    The patio area is stabilized d.g. and the flagstone slabs are just set into the d.g. They are large enough not to need concrete beneath them. The steps are made from railroad ties with decomposed granite landings.

    Best of luck with your project!
