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.

Outdoor lighting by front door

12 years ago
I have a dutch colonial house and at this time I have two Genie House Lanterns on the side of my door. It is the 538 series size 7 1/2 X17 X 7 /12. My lantern post on my walkway is the Genie House Lantern series 153. We are thinking of changing our fixtures to match the lamp post and going with a larger fixture 10 x 21 x 11 1/2. Do you think the 153 Series is a farm style light fixture? If not, we will stick with our original light on go up in size. Would appreciate your comments
