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.

      Thanks for your kind comments. We are proud because on this project, we didn't have the funds to get a kitchen designer so we designed it ourselves (I have used a designer in the past and found they were well worth the money). Other than maybe lowering my microwave about four inches, I wouldn't change a thing! Very functional and gets heavy use. Originally I wanted to put in an island, but thought we'd live with it and see if we need it because it is a small space.
