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.

Help! Which exterior???

13 years ago
Which do you like better? Window in garage or window in bonus?
Featured Answer
  • 13 years ago
    I like the one with the window better although with functional windows below.

    The side elevation however almost looks bizarre. Build a gable out on the back end with a parapet like on the front and put two or three dormers like the one that is drawn already. That all makes perfect sense since there's a room up there.
