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.

Room divider ideas?

The front door opens directly into the small-ish living room. What are some ways to create a "buffer" between entry and the living space? Thanks!
