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.

    We used 1/2" Birch plywood. It is fastened to 1x4 furring strips with pan head screws. We used stainless steel screws for the look. We placed the furring strips at diagonals so there is a 1/2" reveal between the panels. The material cost was not significant, but it was alot of labor.
