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 am looking for a mailbox for use in a beach town. Something that is rust resistant. I assume stainless steel would be a good way to go?

    Great question: Stainless steel does have the ability to rust in a saltwater environment. Aluminum construction would be a better choice for your application. We also have many rust-proof wall mount styles in our inventory!
