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

Exterior dormer

10 years ago
Trying to find a solution to break up the roof space. The dormer won't allow for taller windows(due to the pitch), making it seem too small. Any suggestions?
