Houzz Scraper — Home-Improvement Pros, Contacts & Reviews

Extract every professional from any Houzz category & location — general contractors, interior designers, architects, kitchen & bath remodelers, home builders, landscapers and more — as a ready-to-use B2B lead list: business name, phone, full address & geo, rating, review count, license number, services, website, and social links. Optionally enrich each lead with emails crawled from the pro's own website.

No login, no cookies, no browser — it reads Houzz's public directory (structured data) and profile pages directly, with a built-in monitor mode that surfaces only newly listed pros.

Why this Houzz scraper?

Most Houzz scrapers grab a name and a rating. This actor reads the JSON-LD on every listing page (one rich LocalBusiness block per pro) and merges it with the profile page, so each row is an actual, contactable lead — with the address, license, and review data that matter for the home-services industry.

Use cases

• Lead generation for home-services suppliers — sell materials, SaaS, insurance, financing, or marketing to contractors and designers. Filter by trade and city, get phone + address + (optionally) email.
• Recruiting & subcontracting — build lists of licensed pros by category and location.
• Market & competitive research — map the contractor/designer landscape in any metro, with ratings and review volume.
• Agencies & lead resellers — generate targeted, scored home-pro lead lists on a schedule.
• CRM enrichment — match and enrich existing home-services contacts with ratings, license, and website.

How to use

1. Sign up for Apify — the free plan is enough to try this actor.
2. Open the Houzz Scraper, set a Category + Location (or paste a Houzz directory URL), and click Start.
3. Watch professional leads stream into the dataset.
4. Export as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS — or pull results via the Apify API.

What to expect (field coverage)

Houzz is pro-entered data, so some fields appear only when the professional filled them in. Across the directory you can typically expect: name, phone, full address and the Houzz profile URL on virtually every listing; rating, review count and license with enrichProfiles; website and emails only when the pro publishes a website (Houzz doesn't always expose one). A blank field means it wasn't published — never that scraping failed.

category:'interior-designers',
location:'Los Angeles, CA',

});

Tips

• Category slugs: take them straight from a Houzz directory URL (/professionals/{category}), e.g. kitchen-and-bathroom-remodelers.
• Phone-first leads: even with enrichProfiles off, every listing gives name + phone + address — a usable lead list in seconds.
• Emails: turn on enrichEmails to crawl the pro's website; coverage depends on whether the pro lists a site on Houzz.
• Fresh leads: combine onlyNewItems with an Apify Schedule to capture newly listed pros automatically.
• Large markets: Houzz paginates to ~1,500 pros per category/location — split by city or sub-category to go deeper.

FAQ

How do I scrape a specific trade and city? Set category (e.g. general-contractors) and location (e.g. Austin, TX), or paste the Houzz directory URL into startUrls.

Does it need a login or API key? No. It reads Houzz's public directory and profile pages — no key or login.

Where do phone numbers and addresses come from? From the structured data Houzz publishes on each listing — the same info a visitor sees.

Where do emails come from? Never from Houzz (it doesn't publish them). With enrichEmails on, the actor visits the pro's own website and extracts publicly listed contact emails.

How do I monitor a market for new pros? Turn on onlyNewItems and create an Apify Schedule; each run emits only newly listed professionals.

Can I export to Google Sheets, CSV, or Excel? Yes — one click in the dataset view, or automatically via the Google Drive integration.

Is scraping Houzz legal? This actor collects publicly available data only. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with applicable laws (e.g. GDPR/CCPA for personal data) and Houzz's terms.
