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.

Recess Lighting in an Eichler Home

12 years ago
We have an Eichler home with a 4 inch ceiling and are looking for nice lighting. We are re-doing the roof so would love to replace our track lighting with recess (preferably LED) lighting but the sloped, 4 inch ceiling makes it difficult to find good solutions. Any ideas?
