“All-in-one Houzz Scraper”
Slug: fatihtahta/houzz-scraper
Overview
This actor is built upon the ValidatedMails.com architecture for contact enrichment workflows of pro profiles.
All-in-one Houzz Scraper collects structured data from Houzz search results and listing pages across photos, professionals, stories, and community discussions. Records can include identifiers, URLs, titles, descriptions, locations, review signals, business details, badges, and optional contact enrichment for professional profiles. Houzz is a major platform for home design inspiration, renovation planning, and professional discovery, which makes its public data useful for research, sourcing, and competitive analysis. This actor automates collection across multiple Houzz surfaces in one run, so teams can avoid repetitive manual browsing. The result is a more consistent dataset with less cleanup and less time spent gathering inputs by hand.

- type (string, required): Normalized record type. Common values are
photo,professional,story, anddiscussion. - id (number, required): Houzz entity identifier.
