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 process is similar to an over grout that is commonly used in old world styles which basically means, very easy, and the messier the better.

    Can this be added to the wall after your home has been completely finished? Just built 3 yrs ago and would love to add a accent brick wall like this...

    Where can you purchase the stones, and is this DIY friendly?
