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 am extremely picky with how things look as a whole. It was a challenge to get the turret roof pitch to line up to the house pitch. Little things like that are very important to me. lol :)

      Original
      deck was 12' x 28' approximately 32 inches above grade. The
      deck shape and size was in three different shapes, one following the angle from
      the corner of the house 18 x 18, the other the existing 28 x 12, and the
      remaining octagon at 12 x 12. The total approximate complete deck footage was
      equal to 750 Square feet. I used timber tech composite decking.
      And the ceiling was beadboard wood ceiling, that was painted white.
