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.

White Herringbone Grout Help!?

5 years ago

This is my first time tiling and I’m doing a herringbone backsplash for my basement bar. What color would you recommend. Also worth noting there will be 4 black floating shelves. I’m leaning towards a darker color and I’m really hoping my lines are clean enough. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
