Frequently Asked Questions

How much does recessed lighting installation cost?

Our pricing starts at $500 for the first light in a room and $200 for each additional light. This includes LED fixtures, dimmer switches, wiring, patching & painting. A typical kitchen with 6-8 lights costs $1,500-$1,900. We offer a 10% discount for 3+ rooms. Non-standard situations (plaster walls, ceilings over 9 ft, smart switches) may require an adjusted quote.

Can you install recessed lights in an existing ceiling?

Yes, we specialize in retrofit installations. Our standard pricing covers drywall, drop tile, and open ceilings. Plaster or lathe ceilings may require an adjusted quote due to additional labor. Our process always includes patching and painting for a seamless finish.

How many recessed lights do I need?

The general guideline is one recessed light per 4-6 square feet. For example, a 12x12 kitchen typically needs 6-8 lights, while a 15x20 living room may need 8-12. We provide free consultations to recommend the optimal layout for your space.

Do you install smart lighting systems?

Yes, we install smart recessed lights and dimmers compatible with Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. Control your lights with voice commands or smartphone apps. We can also install color-changing LEDs for ultimate customization.

How long does installation take?

Most single-room installations are completed in 3-5 hours. Multi-room or whole-home projects typically take 1-2 days. We work efficiently and leave your home clean. Most projects are scheduled within 2 weeks of your initial call.

Are LED recessed lights worth it?

LED recessed lights use 75% less energy than traditional bulbs and last 25,000+ hours (about 22 years of typical use). They produce better quality light, less heat, and pay for themselves in energy savings within 2-3 years.

What areas do you serve?

We serve all Chicago suburbs within 50 miles, including Naperville, Schaumburg, Arlington Heights, Evanston, Oak Park, Wheaton, Palatine, Elmhurst, Downers Grove, Glenview, Highland Park, Lake Forest, and many more.

Do I need a permit for recessed lighting?

Most recessed lighting installations are straightforward retrofit work and don't require a permit. Our pricing assumes no permit is needed. If you'd like a permit pulled for your project, we can quote and handle that separately.
