You should start by checking the setting for the lights, make sure they are not set to an odd diameter and are they standard lights or dynamic? Last You need to check the surfaces you are putting together are either of them phasing together or at an odd angle? If none of this works there could be something wrong with the rendering process for lights.(Dont really know alot I'm just a novice)

Well where is the light source?
It looks like you built a house in another large room. Looks like the shadows are a mess and confused.

I had a quick look online and some people suggest it could be down to how you compiled the map. If you are using fast compile it can cause this issue as the lightling calculations are simplified to speed up the compiling.

Its been a while since I have used hammer, but if you want to send me a copy of the map I could have a bash at trying to fix it if the above isn't the issue.
