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.

Kitchen and Dining Room Flip!

11 years ago

Was tired of the "cubicle walls" separating kitchen and dining room. Also, dining was like a black hole with no outdoor windows. Took down half walls and 1 partial full wall which made for a much more open and lighter space.

    That's a very good idea. I like that you can see into the dining area

      This is fantastic. I hope you kept the other two great wood chairs.

      sandradclark - I have 6 chairs as the tables has 2 leaves. Do you think I should keep 4 chairs around the table instead of 2? The table and chairs are custom made - I've had them for about 20 years. Thank you!
