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.

    You can install them using traditional method with mortar or by using silicone together with vertical and horizontal spacers to help hold glass blocks connected very firmly.
