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.

Installing cladding?

14 years ago
Does cladding require grouting? Can it be used with simple mats for backsplashes?

    HI-
    This specific cladding is dry stack- so no grouting. You will need to tint the setting material to match the color of the mesh holding the mosaic pieces together when installed.
    Because of the heavy texture, it could be a little tough to clean on a backsplash. It may be best used on a feature wall, fireplace, or other similar type of installation.
