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 a joy to come home to this kitchen - good job! I would suggest a glass tile, may be a 6"x4" format, using a color from the countertop. You don't have mush backsplash and glass would give you more reflectivity and easy to clean.

      Stainless behind the stove; glass tile for the rest. Pull a color from the counters.

      I had a similar look in my old kitchen and I did a subway tile in a frosted glass and the color was Aloe. It still seemed neutral but added some color. Good luck! It looks beautiful!
