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.

    We used a lightened version of Sherwin Williams' Peppercorn. If you need me to snap a photo of the paint lid, let me know. :)

    I realize that it's been a number of years since you posted, but I for one would love a snap of the paint. Your house looks great! Contemplating Peppercorn for our house but concerned the 100% skews a bit dark and a bit too purple, so curious about your step down. Thanks!

    For what it’s worth, I wish we had gone darker. The paint has faded over the years and lightening the base didn’t make that much of a difference.

    Thanks so much!!!
