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.

7 years ago

What has been used as the hardscape border here? is it poured concrete or some type of paver that can be bought? Love it.

    The edging/border in this project is cast in place concrete with a steel troweled finish.


    A similar effect could be achieved with narrow modular concrete paver, mortared in place, say 4" x 36" x 2.5". Stepstone Inc. and other manufacture this product in a variety of lengths.
