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.

Design Dilemma
bubbiejanet

deciding between wood, laminate and carpet floor

12 years ago
Just had a leak from upstairs to down. Need to replace flooring - have to make a decision in 2 weeks. Had carpet before and it works but now need to decided between laminate and engineered or bamboo. Have a dog and a husband that has an office in the same space. Help! I live in Austin Texas and need a reliable installer.

Thanks
