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.

How can this terraced house be made beautiful?

13 years ago
I hate the cheapo decking and how much it dominates. Can this be simplified and modernized? I'd like a pool here too.

(This is a house I'm considering buying.)
