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.

      We used fiber cement board on this house, both for the large panels and for lap siding.

      this house is very nice. I have seen it in person, by far my favorite home in the area.

      All of the siding is fiber cement board or HardiPanel / HardiPlank. Thanks for looking!

      Were the cement boards custom painted or a factory color?
