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.

Fireplace remodel

7 years ago

I am looking to redesign a fireplace that is 6’ wide and is white rock of some sort ans was designed 20 yrs ago. There is a chimney too. Fortunately its operated with gas heat. We live in Florida.


Just imagine you take handfuls of cement and you make this albatross of a fireplace. I am buying the house and intend to remodel before moving in. Thank you for any suggestions.
