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.

      Hard to say what it is, but it's definitely not soapstone.

      The counters in the kitchen are granite.

      I love granite, but it can be so busy. This one is gorgeous! It does almost look like concrete (my first choice for aesthetic, but not material). Do you know the name of the granite?

      I’d also love to know the name of this granite!
