[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 361907, member: 6969"] The "normal" is just 2 way switching on the landing light. So you turn on the first floor landing light. Turn off the downstairs hall light, then go up to bed. Turn on the bedroom light, turn off the landing light. Personally I like to add the ability to turn off the downstairs hall light from the first floor, but that's not very common. As this is a 3 storey house you want the same thing carried on to the next floor as well. It's not clear from your post, but am I to take it that you are the buyer, and you are compiling a snagging list to present to the builder? If so then I doubt you will get any luck by complaining you can't turn off the hall light from the first floor as that is not a normal thing to need to do (unless you just forgot to turn it off before going upstairs) There's a big difference between what is nice, and what you would do if designing your own house, and what is "essential" and what a mass market builder will provide.
