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.

How did you build this beautiful house?

12 years ago
We are going to build a house with shipping containers and do not know the details such as how to weld them, what about the roofing, how to cut the walls and beams, why are they over the soil instead of on it, etc.

    This is actually the floors of the container we flipped them for the roof.

    How many shipping containers were used and how many bedrooms are there, please when you have a free moment. This home is so stunning. Thank you for your time.
