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 creek beds original purpose was to divert water which naturally collects under the house during the winter and is pumped out with a sump pump. Since the pump comes on intermittently, only when there is enough water under the house, we decided to make it recirculating as well by adding a basin and another pump so that it could be turned on anytime.
