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.

    Consult with an architect. Which part of the roofline do you want to change? I assume a new roof & lots of $ will be needed.

    Definitely planning on hiring an architect. Right now, I’m looking for ideas, preferably from renovations/updates of similar styles from around the same time period.
