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.

Need a deck color

8 years ago

I have a custom ranch and I am painting it Dusted Truffle (Sherwin Williams) and white trim. My front porch is the problem. I have a large open front porch and I do not know what to paint/stain. I thought white but the painter said choose a color. Help!!
