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.

      Are you still happy with how chalk paint is holding up over a year later?
    • 11 years ago
      The chalk paint held up extremely well. I actually sold the house last month and am pleased to say that everyone that looked at the place liked the cabinets -- the ultimate test!

      In the midst of painting, as we speak. This is very good to hear. :) Thanks for the response.

      Did you deal with wax or polyacrylic?
