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.

Switch grass

10 years ago

I have a dozen switch grass ( heavy metal) plants that are doing well. If I cut them down now will they come back this year? I usually cut them back in late winter but I need them out of the way for a few weeks
