The wasted consultation

Know the budget before you drive out

They wouldn't name a budget on the phone, so you drove out, measured the kitchen, and spent an evening on the proposal. Then they said they were thinking more like a refresh.

You set your minimum budget. Inquiries above it can book a consultation on your calendar. The rest still reach you, with the number on them.

Start with your website. Add the lines that bring more calls.

What it costs

Houzz is cheaper. Here's what the difference buys.

A Houzz Pro plan with ads costs less than we do, about $8,000 to $11,000 a year. Here's what the difference buys: inquiries from your own site and Google profile that no other remodeler gets. If you leave, your Google profile and rankings leave with you. Example: the gross profit on one midrange major kitchen remodel, at the average remodeler's margin, covers a full year of our site and search lines.

Sources: Houzz Pro's published prices, October 2026; Cost vs. Value 2025, national midrange major kitchen remodel ($82,793); NAHB Remodelers' Cost of Doing Business Study, 2026 edition (average gross margin 29.9%). Our site and search lines together are $20,160 a year.
