Lighting Installation FAQs

Common questions about our Lighting Installation services

Lighting installation costs vary based on the type of fixtures, complexity of wiring, and number of lights being installed. Simple ceiling light replacements typically start around $150-250 per fixture, while recessed lighting installation ranges from $200-400 per light depending on accessibility and wiring requirements. Outdoor lighting projects often range from $300-800 per fixture for security lights and landscape illumination. We provide upfront pricing after evaluating your specific project, so you know exactly what to expect before any work begins.
Yes, we regularly install recessed lighting in existing ceilings throughout Cook and Will County homes. The process involves cutting precise holes in your ceiling, running new wiring through the ceiling cavity, and installing the recessed fixtures. We use dust containment methods and protect your furniture during installation. The complexity depends on your ceiling construction and attic access, but most residential installations can be completed in a day. We handle all the electrical connections and ensure everything meets local building codes.
Most basic lighting fixture replacements don’t require permits, but new circuit installations and major electrical work typically do. Adding recessed lighting, installing outdoor lighting with new circuits, or upgrading electrical panels usually requires permits in Cook and Will Counties. As licensed electricians, we handle permit applications when needed and ensure all work meets local electrical codes. We’ll let you know upfront if your project requires permits and factor that into your timeline and pricing.
Most residential lighting installations can be completed in 4-8 hours depending on the scope. Simple fixture replacements often take 1-2 hours per light, while recessed lighting installation typically requires 3-4 hours for a standard room. Outdoor lighting projects vary widely based on the number of fixtures and trenching requirements. We provide realistic timelines during your initial consultation and work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine. Complex custom lighting projects may require multiple visits to complete properly.
LED lighting installation often requires different dimmer switches and sometimes updated wiring to handle the lower electrical loads properly. LEDs last 15-25 times longer than traditional bulbs and use 75% less energy, which means significant savings on your electric bills. However, not all existing dimmer switches work with LED fixtures, so we often recommend upgrading to LED-compatible controls. The installation process is similar, but we ensure your electrical system is optimized for LED performance and longevity.
Absolutely. We install smart lighting systems that integrate with popular platforms like Alexa, Google Home, and dedicated smart home controllers. This includes smart switches, dimmable LED fixtures, and outdoor lighting with programmable timers and motion sensors. Smart lighting installation requires proper neutral wiring and sometimes additional low-voltage wiring for sensors and controls. We plan the electrical infrastructure to support your smart home goals and provide basic setup and programming to get your system working properly.
