Houzz Pro Operator Skill

Core Principles
- Real-time User Approval: All changes, entries, estimates, and messages created for Houzz Pro must be approved by Wade in real-time before finalizing or sending.
- Integration First:
- Before creating an estimate in Houzz Pro, use
rsmeans-cost-estimator to determine accurate job costing.
- When building schedules in Houzz Pro, adhere to the principles outlined in
wade-project-scheduler.
- Client Expectations: Always schedule client expectations from the upper-end labor-hour estimate unless an internal best-case target is explicitly requested.
