Have you recently purchased a fixer-upper? Or have are you trying to flip a home? Maybe you’ve just decided to redecorate! Whatever your situation, it can be expensive to hire an interior designer, the builders, etc. so it’s worth doing some of it yourself. If you’ve got a past in DIY then you might want to take on some of the bigger jobs. You’d have to do your research first and compare things like a worm drive vs a sidewinder saw to see what the right equipment would be but it would be worth it in the end. However, if you don’t have any experience in DIY then you can look into the design aspect of it – and this is where Houzz comes in.
We’re loving Houzz.com for everything from design inspiration to sharing our products with their users. We’re not the only ones. Seems everybody these days is using Houzz to help them decorate and remodel their homes.
Recently, The Dallas Morning News published an article on this very topic, “Remodeling website inspires Dallas couple’s renovation dreams“. When Jonathan Phillips and wife Tauri Laws-Phillips bought their fixer-upper in a Dallas suburb, Tauri began the design process with Houzz.
She consulted the site for both inspiration from Houzz’s plethora of interior design images and for professional help-she found the design-build firm they worked with on their renovation. Others have found it helpful when needing a starting point for metal structures in their home space, such as sheds or additions to their homes. It’s important to consider your home’s exterior when remodeling as a lot of the property’s worth will be tied up in its appearance. There are simple things you can do to improve the look of a home such as utilizing services like Clean Pro Gutter Cleaning Fresno CA in order to clean guttering and remove unsightly build-ups.
