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.

What's the name of the design of the tile in the upper part of the shower? Thinking of doing it in our shower, any advice?

    Idon;t have a name for it. I just call it a 'pinwheel' for my own good, but that's not really a technical term that a tiler would know what to do with it...

    Crystal, even if I remembered that name, it actually looks a bit different on the screen than in reality. the act of photographing, editing and scanning alters the appearance of the colour, so does a computer screen. I would advice that you compare the colour on the screen with a few paint swatches to get the closest match.
