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.

lighting in a hallway

6 years ago

How do I pick the proper size light fixture for a hallway? The room is 19.5 feet long and 7 feet wide with an open stairway on one side. The light fixture hangs directly over the banister so it must be a flush mount because it isn’t totally over the stairs (halfway into the room).
