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.

What size window do I need?

7 years ago

Howdy - I am converting our garage into two tiny kids bedrooms - 8.5 x 13. The window for each room needs to be on the short side. What size window should I get and how high should I place them? TIA for any advice!
