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.

Cement fiber material

7 years ago
What is the name of the cement fiber material used to mimic wood and where can it be found?
Is there a disadvantage of using this material that caused it not to be used for the entire house (but still stained a contrasting color and hung horizontally to produce the same look)?
Is the cement fiber material fire resistant and does it withstand wet conditions?
