The ability to share project visibility with your renovation professional can really help to make things clearer and ensure you stay on schedule, and on budget.

To help homeowners and renovation professionals work together, Houzz has created software for pros that allows them to share updates with clients. By using Houzz Pro software, your design or renovation pro can make the process much easier for you, as you’ll be able to see the project clearly and communicate proactively.
Design or renovation firms with Houzz Pro software can be identified by the ‘I Use Pro Software’ badge on their profiles.
Read on to learn how these new software tools for pros can benefit you as a renovating homeowner, from the planning phase of your project all the way through to completion.

Collaborate wherever you are
Pros using Houzz Pro have tools that make it easy to communicate and collaborate from anywhere, anytime. You can share photos and files with your pro and review those they share with you. Pros also have design tools to help you visualise the end result.
Keep track of conversations
Working with a pro who uses Houzz Pro software keeps your communication history in one centralised place, which both of you can see. You can return to this history whenever you want to review what’s been proposed and what’s been approved. That way, both you and your pro have an easy-to-access, common record of all project decisions.

It is so pretty I would love to do it with me home
Wow what a good idea and so needed in these Covid times. I have never used a pro as always managed to come up with my own solutions but must admit I’m struggling with my latest. Have a smallish garden so don’t want an extension and thinking of converting the garage which is partly attached to the house immediately behind the kitchen. Would love to still feel part of the process so this would be ideal for me.
