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.

The flooring design is so unique-what width and type of floor is it?

    The floor is made of old oak boards (over 100 years old) which are about 4 inches wide. (Because the wood is old, the veins fade out.) The herringbone pattern is a traditional wood pattern found in predominantly 19th century buildings.
