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 color\type is stone

14 years ago
what color and type of stone is used on this home? I really want to use stones with "Brown" colors as opposed to so much gray I see.

    It is a stone from a quarry in Media Pa to the best of my knowledge. It contains mica like a wissahickon schist but has more browns and tans.
