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.

Exterior stone for new construction

11 years ago

Please, what stone would you recommend for dark bronze metal roof with arched stone portico, dark windows with stone ledge, breeze way with stucco arches leading to stone four-car garage. There is three-foot stone under windows wrapping around. Above the stone ledge is stucco. This is a one-story in the hill country of Texas. Thank you!!
