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 shower bench was custom made by us. We used quarter-sawn white oak (grain stability) and marine grade teak oil to protect it. Keeping it looking good is a maintainance issue the client was willing to take on. Reports are that it’s holding up well.

    It’s fastened on custom fabricated stainless steel L brackets we have made and installed on the framing prior to tiling.

    Well it looks good for now! Thanks!
