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.

Round dinning table or long dinning tabel

11 years ago

I prefer round dinning table as it is more cosy...

However it seems that long looks better.

I still need to purchase a table, so the tables on the pictures are not the final.

thanks for the feedback

    The more people you want to seat on a round dining table the further away they are on the opposite side... a long dining table assures most people can talk to 4 people at least (either side and opposite), a round dining table assures 2 people (either side)
