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.

    What is the diameter of the galvanized pipes? Appears to be about 3/4 inch.

    Are the Pipes, Electrical EMT pipes or Copper? How far are they drilled into the post?
