Professional Installation
Our licensed electricians install your new lighting systems with precision and care, ensuring safety and optimal performance.
When installing a new light fixture, our professionals first turn off the circuit breaker at the electrical panel to cut power to the circuit. We confirm the power is off before proceeding. The old fixture is carefully removed from the electrical box by unscrewing the mounting screws with a screwdriver, then disconnecting the black wires (hot), neutral (white), and green or bare grounding wire.
Next, we connect the wires from the new light fixture to the house wiring using wire nuts, ensuring each wire is properly connected—black to black, neutral to neutral, and the grounding wire is wrapped around the grounding screw for safety. The fixture is then attached and supported securely to the mounting bracket with screws. We attach the canopy to cover the wiring and hardware, adjust the chain for the correct hanging length if needed, and install any trim for a finished look. All connections are double-checked to ensure they are properly supported and attached before restoring power at the circuit breaker.
To guarantee the best results, our team conducts on-site assessments at your site to ensure the installation meets your specific requirements.
Testing and Adjustments
We thoroughly test all installations and make necessary adjustments to achieve the desired lighting effect. Our process ensures that your lighting installation is designed to stand the test of time, providing reliable and lasting performance.
