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 don't recall why we didn't go with a built in bench in this case... perhaps the layout didn't allow for it... If you have room for a built in bench in your shower and feel it is something you would use while showering, then there is no cons to having a built in bench. Go for it.
