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.

My new kitchen

13 years ago
After 4 years of trying to decide what to do, we finally got our new kitchen. The before photos don't show the horrible floral wallpaper that used to be on the walls, it was horrendous! Can't believe I chose it, but it was 20 years ago and I obviously had no taste at all!!

    Funny to look back on choices made years ago - trends we got caught up in - You obviously have great taste now and probably did then - I have loved the transitions my design MO has developed into - we are always growing and changing and with a website like houzz - ideas that hit a 'cant-stop-thinking-bout-it' nerve - who know what changes are in store! Your remodel is lovely -

      Great to see an extra wide with storage on both sides.

      We found the original cabinet maker that made the island 20 years ago and they built the addition to the island, perfect match. They still had the schematics for our kitchen in their files which made the project very quick and easy. We love the additional storage!!

      Very nice! What great natural light!

      What a change! I really like the way you moved around and extended the island. Great job!

      It seems to function much better turned around.
