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.

Hi,

This looks great. Do you have pictures of copper covers after few years? Generally speaking what material do you think is the best?

    Yes, there are some pics on HOUZZ under Temptress and Professional Fireplaces that naturally have turned brown. Also, the outdoor fireplace under Stenstrom has a green petina which we apply here. There is an application to age it brown or, if you want the copper to stay like the pic above we also have an application which will keep it looking like above. There are many pics on our web site.
