Whether you want more control over the mood or to reduce your electric bill, our electricians can help you install dimmer switches that accomplish your goals.

Lights Won’t Dim
This is often due to compatibility issues between your dimmer and the type of light bulbs you’re using. For example, not all dimmers work with LED bulbs unless they’re explicitly designed for them. You may need an upgrade to a compatible light switch with dimmer functionality.
Flickering Lights
If your lights flicker when dimmed, the issue could lie with faulty wiring, incompatible bulbs, or an aged dimmer switch. Addressing this problem promptly ensures both safety and convenience in your home.
Overheating Lights
A dimmer that heats up excessively could indicate an overloaded circuit or a malfunction within the switch itself. This should not be ignored, as it poses a potential fire hazard. In cases such as this, you should always consult a licensed electrician for a thorough inspection.
Humming or Buzzing Noises
If your dimmer makes noise during operation, it could be a sign of electrical interference or a mismatch between the switch and the bulbs. Upgrading to a high-quality dimmer switch may solve this issue.
The Dimmer Switch Is Sticking
A sticky or unresponsive dimmer switch might simply need cleaning or lubrication, but often, this is a sign of wear and tear. Replacing the switch can restore its smooth and safe operation.
