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.

      I bet it did sell in 7 days. Beautiful. Very nice work. Had it been on the market before the renovation and staging?

      What is the price range to update a fireplace as you did? Great job!

      Your remodeling project is stunning. I think a lot people forget how a fireplace can really be a focal point. I like the way you cleaned up the fireplace by removing part of the brick structure.

      Did you use a veneer stone that was applied directly over the brick or did you remove the brick first? Most of our projects we apply our thin stone veneer directly over the brick.
