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.

vanity light width help

2 years ago

I have a 48” bathroom vanity and mirror that is also 48” above vanity…is it better to go with a 27” wide light over the mirror that has 4 bulbs, or a 33” wide light with bulbs? Additionally, since the bathroom itself is only 5’ x 8’ total size, is a seperate ceiling light necessary? Or will a bright vanity light suffice?
