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.

    These panels are butted together and bolted in place. I believe we used zinc coated lag screws with a washers that have rubber bonded to one side. The rubber on the washer allows for some expansion and limits corrosion between the 2 different metals. Hope this helps.
