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.

Building a new home

12 years ago
I like the oil rubbed door handles for inside doors. The question is: do I follow that theme throughout the house? For example, in the bath can I use Brushed Nickel on sinks and towel hangers and the light fixtures? In kitchen, do I need to use oil rubbed pulls and for light fixtures? Or can I use brushed nickel pulls?
