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.

Do folks consider ceiling height when mounting bathroom sconces?

6 years ago

Do folks consider ceiling height when mounting bathroom sconces or is it really just based on eye-level? Wondering if the proportions of the room, or the height of the adjacent mirror play a factor.


I have a 8.6' bathroom ceiling, and a 30" tall medicine cabinet mounted 50" off the floor.


Am I just focusing on eye level or should I take these other aspects into account too?
