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.

Cedar Post color

5 years ago

We are having cedar posts installed on our house and I realize that the cedar can be all different colors. I wanted some opinions. The post to the left of the door is way light

er than the one to the right - our contractor said that once the finish is on it will all flow. I didn't know if I should have him switch the light one with the post to the left of that one so that when you walk up to the front door those two flow more.
