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.

    The pavers are jumbo granite cobbles from India.
    They are hand set in stone dust, on top of Filter fabric and 12" of compacted crushed stone.
    The work was done a number of years ago and still there is no evidence of damage, although there was a little setting around the drain inlet.
    The snow is removed primarily by a heating system under the cobbles.

    The door on the right opens into a small room used to store trash, until it can be picked up. The roof is made from a single stone slab.
