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.

Raised Ranch before and after

10 years ago



Our renovation is almost completed. We still have to find a new lamp post and finish driveway.

    Your changes look great! We have a similar home and just replaced our two front windows that are similar to yours. We took out the large picture windows with flanking casements and replaced with three double-hungs upstairs and three casements in the basement. I think the basement ones make the window look much larger, even though it's not.

    Now, if only it were spring and I could open them up!
