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.

Updated an 80's kitchen

13 years ago
Painted with Benjamin Moore cabinet coat in dove white, added hardware, and a new light over the sink. What do you think?

    I like it, however it's a lot of white. I would perhaps paint the walls a tasteful green or something.

      We sprayed the doors and used a foam roller on the frames, I love the color, it goes nicely with the appliances. Also, I agree on the room needing some color, still deciding though.
