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.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 24, 2014
“Eric Perry is working with us to design and build our modern home. He and his team have made the process enjoyable. His design suggestions have reduced cost significantly while maintaining the spirit of our vision. Eric has hired subcontractors that are professional and he has kept the process moving seamlessly. Eric's wife, Violet, also provides advice on design and color questions and is a valuable resource. We have worked with other builders in the past and none of our prior experiences have been as pleasant and productive.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 19, 2018
“Mark was competent, kind, prompt, responsive and easy to bounce ideas off of. Hiring an architect to help us with our renovation/addition was too expensive and unnecessary, but we didn't trust ourselves to simply draw up a design ourselves on a napkin and hand it to our builder. Mark was the perfect solution.”
