Can I install a light fixture myself?

Swapping a bulb is fine. Wiring a fixture is not. CPSC says to check that every bulb matches the fixture's wattage rating, because a higher wattage can cause overheating. Work inside a junction box, a ceiling box or a fixture needs a licensed electrician. Call us for fans, chandeliers and anything that needs a ladder and wiring.

What outdoor and security lighting can you install?

We install landscape lighting, accent lights, flood lights and motion-detecting security lights for entries, garage doors and sliding doors. Outdoor outlets need GFCI protection. Pool and hot tub work has its own code rules, so a licensed electrician must do it.

Should I choose LED?

LEDs use less energy and last longer. DOE says they use at least 75 percent less energy than incandescent bulbs and last 25 times longer. See LED lighting installation for retrofits and upgrades.

Do I need a permit for lighting?

Often not for a simple swap. Grapevine, for example, says replacing lamps is minor repair work that needs no permit. Adding new circuits or outdoor wiring can need one. Rules differ by city, so ask us. See the electrical permit entry and our service areas.
