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.

Fireplace brick

10 years ago
How was this effect achieved. Is it simply paint? I have red brick fireplace I would like to change but need a temporary fix for now.

    Hi Anna - Is there a particular process to achieve the whitewashed effect on the fireplace brick?? I've been told that the paint needs to be thinned...any instruction would be appreciated.

    Thank you!!
