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.

Terra bronze siding & trim?

8 years ago
Could I use a lighter cedar trim on the wood elements. Have you done that combo before?

    Although I don’t have any projects that come to mind where we’ve done cedar window trim on dark siding, we definitely have had many homes with cedar elements and accent pieces on dark trim. It is something you definitely would be able to pull off, with a more contemporary look. If you look in Waldmann Construction’s Ideabook named “Exterior Styles”, I’ve just saved a couple Houzz photos for you which reflect cedar trims and accent pieces that compliment the darker siding tones.
    Thanks for your inquiry!
