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.

Wainscoting height

8 years ago
I have 10'6" walls and want to put the top of the chair rail at 30", will that be too low? I see it done too neigh often.
