My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

4 way switch question regarding dimmer

18 years ago

I've got a ceiling light in the house that works off of three switches. Is it possible to change out one of the switches and put in a dimmer switch to control the brightness?

Thanks in advance for the advice, rredogg
