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.

Is that going to be too dark?

    Here is an example of a house with Certainteed Max Definition Moire Black. This black is not nearly as severe as many of the very black ones I have seen....it has a bit more gray. A very dark all black roof can look way too dark.
