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.

Our exterior paint renovation

13 years ago
last modified: 13 years ago
Our house has not been painted properly in more than 12 years. I forgot to take before photos so I have used Google street view for the front and tried to recreate the after pic.

We are thrilled with the results!

We used Northglen Painters from Durban, South Africa. The wall colour is Plascon City Fog and the trim is exterior white.
