  • Every lighting project starts with a conversation about how you use each space. Our electricians assess your existing circuits, identify load capacity, and map fixture placement to match your goals. We walk you through options for recessed lights, pendant lighting, track lights, wall sconces, under-cabinet lighting, and ceiling fans. Energy-efficient LED lighting is the standard recommendation for most Kansas City homeowners because LEDs draw significantly less current, run cooler, and last far longer than incandescent alternatives. We also discuss lighting design for specific applications, including landscape lighting, deck lighting, patio lighting, pool area lighting, and security lighting. You leave the consultation with a clear plan, a firm price, and no guesswork.

  • Once the lighting design is approved, our electricians pull the correct wire gauge for each circuit. Recessed lights on a 15-amp branch circuit require 14-gauge copper. Higher-load fixtures or longer runs step up to 12-gauge. We secure junction boxes to framing members, run cable through walls with minimal drywall disruption, and install mounting brackets rated for the fixture's weight. For outdoor lighting installation and exterior lighting fixtures, we use weatherproof boxes and waterproof connectors rated for wet locations per NEC Article 410. Line and low-voltage landscape lighting require separate treatment. Low-voltage systems use a transformer tied to a standard 120V circuit, while line-voltage outdoor systems connect directly to a dedicated branch circuit. Both approaches get the same attention to secure mounting and proper load balancing.

  • With wiring and mounting complete, we install your chosen lighting fixtures. That includes chandelier installations, indoor recessed lighting, track lighting, pendant lighting, wall sconces, under-cabinet lighting, and motion-activated floodlights. Every connection is made with approved wire connectors, torqued to spec, and seated fully in the junction box before the cover plate goes on. We test each fixture on a circuit-by-circuit basis, check for correct polarity, confirm dimmer compatibility where applicable, and verify that GFCI outlet protection is in place for any bathroom, kitchen, or outdoor lighting circuit required by code. The final inspection walk-through confirms every fixture operates correctly and the installation meets local building codes and safety regulations.
