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.

    The steps are Bluestone as is the patterned paving stone. The wall/bench stone is a limestone called Oakfield quarried from Wisconsin. This was a fun project mixing stone types and uses!
