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.

Need color ideas

2 years ago

I would like to add color to my porch.
The large urn, the chair and the two small pots. Any ideas?

    The house and trim are neutral, so why not pick your favorite color for your porch? I'm assuming your favorite color isn't brown or gray, that wouldn't help. Something bright would really pop out, like orange. Don't paint all four things the same color, use different shades and/or an additional contrasting color. Then add some flowers that complement the paint color.
