Lighting is both functional and architectural. The right installation improves how a space looks, how safe it feels, and how much energy it uses. Lighting work goes well beyond swapping a fixture: it involves circuit capacity, junction box ratings, dimmer compatibility, and outdoor weatherproofing requirements. Our licensed electricians handle everything from single-fixture replacements to complete outdoor lighting systems and whole-home recessed lighting conversions. Every installation is wired correctly, protected appropriately for its location, and tested before we consider the job complete — so a flickering light or a tripped breaker does not show up six months later.
Built to Pass Inspection
Every panel job is performed with code-compliant materials, filed permits, and a final inspection — not just a finished installation. We coordinate directly with your utility provider on any service upgrade requiring a meter pull, and we provide documentation of the passed inspection for your records once the job is complete.
What Lighting Work Covers
From a single fixture to a full recessed lighting conversion, here is what is involved.
Lighting installation covers new fixtures, ceiling fans, and dedicated circuits. Lighting repair addresses non-functioning fixtures and failed dimmers. Landscape lighting involves low-voltage cable runs and transformer systems. Recessed lighting installation requires precise ceiling cuts and IC-rated housings. Outdoor lighting installation covers security and pathway fixtures with weatherproof, GFCI-protected wiring.
When You Need an Electrician
Changing a bulb does not require a license, but running a new circuit, relocating a junction box, or wiring outdoor fixtures does. Dimmers must be matched to fixture type, since mismatches cause flickering, buzzing, and shortened bulb life. Outdoor fixtures wired without GFCI protection violate code and create real shock hazards.
IC Ratings and Insulation Code
Standard recessed housings are not rated for contact with insulation. If insulation covers them, heat buildup can ignite surrounding material. California code requires IC-rated housings in insulated ceilings, plus airtight rated fixtures or sealing to prevent conditioned air from escaping into the attic. We apply this standard on every recessed lighting job, not just where it is obviously required.
DIY lighting projects that look fine on day one often surface problems later: flickering lights, warm switch plates, and GFCI outlets that will not reset. These are symptoms of wiring errors or overloaded circuits caught too late. Professional installation ensures correctly rated junction boxes, properly loaded circuits, and weatherproofed, GFCI-protected outdoor work from the start.
