Houzz Rejection — What Happened

Houzz has the strictest review policy of all platforms.

They reject reviews for:

• external links
• references to your own website
• references to case files
• references to legal issues
• references to Building Control
• references to engineering documents
• anything that looks like a dispute

The link to the website is the reason

Houzz’s policy explicitly states:

“Reviews cannot contain external links or references to other websites.”

 The links to a case file trigger a rejection.

✔ The solution

Using a shorter, softer version with no link:

Houzz‑safe version:   The structural pack I received didn’t match the updated design for my extension. The engineering document had the wrong project address, and amendments I paid for were not delivered. Communication delays were blamed on internet issues, and although a refund was mentioned, nothing happened. These issues prevented accurate builder pricing and delayed Building Control submission.

This still has not passed Houzz moderation.

Conclusion

No link, no problem.
