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.

    Thanks for checking in. That is Pachysandra terminalis. In some areas of the countries it is considered invasive, but it's not problematic here in Chicago.

    Looks like the ground cover might be Pachysandra
