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 coping and deck is sandblasted Wiarton Eramosa flagstone on concrete.

    Is it hot like bluestone?

    If you mean by "hot" that it's a trendy look, I'm not sure we could say that. It's very neutral in colour to allow the other elements to attract the eye (pool water, Ipe hardwood deck inserts, outdoor furniture, umbrellas, surrounding plantings, etc.).

    I mean hot as in temperature. Is it hot walking on it barefoot?

    Oh, sorry...didn't realize you meant that. It will get hot in the sun like any natural stone, but not especially so due to it's medium colour tone. It won't get hot like black pavement does.
