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.

Design Dilemma

Colored island or no?

9 years ago
Building our forever home and cabinet company wants design this week. Would you paint island a color?

Perimeter will be white. Was thinking of maybe Wrought IRON OR IRON ORE FOR ISLAND.

    I wouldn't, but it's your "forever house " (nothing's forever), but in any event, do what you want, difficult to tell from not having pictures.
