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.

    Luann - It is a Crepe Myrtle that we up lit.

    The up lighting on the tree is gorgeous also! We did some uplighting on a river birch with flush in the ground round light. They keep getting covered up with mulch. Next house we will have to rethink doing that a different way.

    Thank you!

    That can happen. We put covers on our inground lights to help with that issue. We also recommend our customers to talk to their landscapers about where the lights are to ensure they do not cover them up.
