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.

Height for light switch in bathroom

5 years ago

We are remodeling a bathroom. The tile wainscoting around the sink will go up to 44". This is in the middle of the existing light switch. Should I move the switch up to the drywall, or down onto the tile? Same question for the nearby outlet next to the sink.
