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.

Design Dilemma

Are the shelves over the window flush with the wall and window frame?

11 years ago

I am attempting to hang floating shelves across a window. With the frame depth from the wall, I am wondering how my shelves spanning the window will be the same depth as the shelves that are only on the wall and not spanning the window.
