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 just installed a vanity with a vessel sink with no holes in the sink to prevent overflow and now I am told that this may not be in compliance with NYC Building Code. Does anyone know if this is true?
