Remodeling and Design Firms Expect Steady Demand This Quarter

The Q2 Houzz Renovation Barometer also shows that U.S. firms now have shorter project backlogs than a year ago

As we head into the second three months of 2019, many firms — on both the construction side and the architectural and design side of the residential remodeling industry — have positive short-term expectations, new data from Houzz reveal. Wait times for these firms to take on a new midsize project, however, are notably dropping. 

As a home remodeling or design pro, you can benefit from having a pulse on market conditions, since factors that affect pros in other specialties can also affect your business. The Q2 2019 Houzz Renovation Barometer tracks residential renovation market expectations, project wait times and recent business activity based on responses from more than 2,000 small businesses on Houzz.
