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.

Regarding the cedar siding

8 years ago
Is this cedar treated to maintain color in sun? Or will it fade? If treated, how often to maintain color?

    Hi Abby, there is a stain on the Cedar Siding, Vogel Builders would be able to tell you more. Cedar takes stain really well, and the darker the stain the longer it will last. Depending on climate and exposure, you would need to stain every 7-10 years to keep the color and integrity of the wood.
