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.

Wall switch or knob on fixture?

8 years ago
Would like to know how this light is turned on. Does it have to be connected to a switch on the wall?

    Same question for me - is the switch on the fixture? I can hardwire it but need an on/off on the actual fixture.
