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.

    My husband and I are getting ready to install Brazilian walnut, but i do not like any of the green tones coming through. We would like to keep it a natural finish as possible. Do you have any recommendations?
