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.

    You can use a standard tubing cutter available at most big box hardware stores and handsaw with a good blade could also work.
