- asmithmd1 4y agoWe had rehab work done when we moved to a Boston area house and they skim coated everything with plaster as standard of practice. That is definitely not the standard anywhere else I have lived. Another regional difference is they put the powder room light switch next to the door on the outside, why? Has anyone seen this in any other area?
