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.

    Hi Gina,
    The stain was a blend of Minwax colors. I think it was Red Mahogany and Early American but I am not 100%, it may have been RM and Provincial. I find the best thing to do when it comes to paint colors and stains is to test it out first and then make your decision. Different light in a room can really make a world of difference whether artificial or natural light.
