What a Best of Houzz Badge Means on a Pro’s Profile
Here’s a guide to the Best of Houzz awards and how you can connect with winning pros near you
If you spot a Best of Houzz badge on a home professional’s profile page, you’ve come across a person or firm whose work truly stands out. The annual Best of Houzz awards recognise the top-rated home professionals and most popular designs on Houzz by category and area, across the country and around the world.
Only a little more than three percent of Houzz’s 2.5 million active global home professionals win each year. In many cases, that means the winning photos garnered thousands or even tens of thousands of Ideabook saves. In other words, Best of Houzz winners are professionals and designs that seriously wow the Houzz community.
