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 polished stones are smooth and finished to a high polish. A leather finish has an undulating texture that follows the natural inherent characteristics of the stone, with a lower sheen.
