    Questions on this stage 5

    • You · 3 hours agoThe ceiling looks so much higher with the board up! Are the pot lights staying where we marked them?
    • Jordan · 2 hours agoYes, exactly where you marked them: six in the family room, one over the bathroom door. The holes are cut, so you can see the spacing now.
    • You · 2 hours agoPerfect. Could we add an outlet behind the TV for a soundbar while the walls are open?
    • Jordan · 1 hour agoEasy, the box is already there for the TV. I’ll add a second one beside it and send a quick quote today. No change to the schedule.
    • You · 35 min agoAmazing, thank you!
