The standard ceiling height for modern homes is 9 feet, but in some homes, you’ll find lower or taller ceilings, depending on when the house was built. If you have a two-story home, the first floor may have taller ceilings than the second floor, since the second floor tends to have bedrooms, bathrooms, and other spaces that don’t need high ceilings. However, if your home has lower ceilings, such as 7 or 8 feet, you might run into some issues when it comes to lighting. At Hobrecht Lighting, our lighting showroom in Sacramento can help you find the perfect lighting solution for any rooms with low ceilings.
