Our process starts with a walk-through to understand your goals, space layout, and existing wiring.

Lighting Questions That Deserve the Spotlight
If you’re thinking about upgrading your home’s lighting, these FAQs are a great place to start. We’re answering the most common questions homeowners ask before flipping the switch on their next project.
Each space serves a different purpose, so lighting should match how you use the room. Kitchens benefit from bright, task-focused lighting, while living rooms need layered light that includes both ambient and accent sources. Bedrooms do well with dimmable, warmer-toned lights to promote relaxation.
A professional lighting plan helps ensure each room is both functional and comfortable.
Ambient lighting provides general, overall illumination—think recessed ceiling lights or flush mounts. Task lighting is focused and functional, like under-cabinet lights or reading lamps, meant to illuminate specific work areas. Accent lighting highlights architectural features, artwork, or decor and adds visual interest to a space.
A well-designed lighting plan uses all three to create depth and flexibility.
Modern LED lighting uses up to 75% less energy and lasts significantly longer than traditional bulbs. Adding dimmer switches and smart lighting systems can further cut costs by allowing you to control brightness and schedule usage.
During a lighting upgrade, we often recommend replacing older fixtures and bulbs with high-efficiency options. The result is better lighting and long-term energy savings.
Absolutely. A skilled electrician can often run wiring through attics, basements, or crawl spaces to minimize disruption. We use clean-cut methods and patch or finish areas as needed during installation.
In many cases, especially with remodels or new builds, the process is nearly seamless. We’ll always discuss the cleanest and most efficient approach before starting work.
While you can choose fixtures without a plan, a lighting design ensures your space is evenly lit, highlights key features, and avoids common issues like shadows or glare. It also helps prevent over-lighting or under-lighting a space, which can affect comfort and functionality.
A good plan balances form and function, helping you get the most from your investment. We’ll walk you through every step to make the process simple and rewarding.
