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.

kitchen rug advice

8 years ago
Howzers, I’m searching for an 8’ round outdoor rug to be used under my kitchen table. A coordinating runner will be needed at my kitchen sink and inside the back door. Thank you for your help!

    I think it's fine to put a round rug under that table, but no rugs in a kitchen for safety (tripping) and sanitary reasons. Dated and dirty are what I think of.
