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.

Seeking hard scape design help!

4 years ago

There is a significant problem here.
The fountain & benches were centered on the space, not the wall pillar. Now, I need advice on how to remedy this. Please vote on my ideas or give me some better ones!
A. Raise the fountain up to hide the problem & build out the supporting platform.
B. Cover the problem with faux stone behind the fountain & chip off the top protrusion.
C. Build a tile wall facade behind the fountain & raise it higher than the wall in the middle.

    Can you widen the wall pillar?
