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.

    I'm looking at a stone that looks identical instead of mulch, it's called slatescape or slate scape decorative stones. I'm thinking of using crushed asphalt as the base under it to save on cost since it's color is very close. the crushed asphalt is $38 per yard compared to $175 per yard.
