"Charles was super responsive and gave us the best quote of the three providers we contacted; he installed four lights and dimmers in each of three rooms. He did great work and we're thrilled with the results! Also needed a switch replaced in another room - everything done professionally and completed in one day. Recommended!"

"Matt and Dominic did an excellent job. This is just an example of the quality of their work. After installing a fan in the master bedroom we noticed the bed was not centered in the room. We talked about it and my wife and I planned on moving the bed later. Its huge with four tall heavy posts. At some point during the day, Matt and Dominic pushed the bed exactly where it should have been all along and now was centered in the room saving us an hour's work later."

"KVA / Oscar did a great job on my rental condo remodel. He was very good at helping me upgrade the needed items but not overspend on things that would not add much value. He was also very flexible with the schedule which was appreciated. I installed wafer lights, fans, new outlets and an electrical box needed upgrading."

"Jake did a couple of jobs for us and his expertise was very apparent and invaluable. One of the jobs was tracking down a short that affected our porch lights. He found the problem quickly and in a location I had never even thought to look. Friendly, efficient and well worth the money."

"Great. They were professional, absolutely understanding about wearing masks initially (it was an outdoor job, but I needed us both to be wearing masks during the explanation), and the work was done quickly. They even strung the light for me! We will use them again, and we have already recommended them to several neighbors."

"Scott and his associate showed up on time and assessed the job and gave me the price and details on what would be involved. Because the living room wall is shared with the garage they were able to cut into the sheetrock thru the garage side and I didn't need to touch up any paint on the interior side. Additionally, a ceiling fan was installed."

"Landmark construction and energy crew executed a whole kitchen renovation for us, including custom cabinets, new floors, new countertops, electrical (sub panel with lights and switches), recessed lighting covering, plumbing fixtures, took down wall to expand the kitchen area by merging it to the living room space. The cost included all the materials for cabinets and countertops, backsplash tiles, new floors and the appliances. We are thrilled with our new kitchen! Charlie, Nir and the workers did an excellent work and while the whole job was completed in less than a month. You could see how hard they worked in order to keep the work moving so it will be done in that time period that they originally promised us. On top of that, they worked hard to get things to our requirements (i.e. to stain the cabinets, complete the paint etc…). We all were pleasant and satisfied to have them work at our house and mainly with Charlie (project manager) that was approachable and supportive when we had requests or problems. I must mention that on few times, we were bothered with some of the workers when they didn’t show up when they should, or worked more hours on the electricity panel. Clearly enough, it’s normal that you must have to handle a lot of problems when you decide on going for this type of project. The final cost was the same as we agreed with them at first, although we were sure that it will be increased due to some additional things that we did during the work and that were not included in the first estimate/agreement. Overall, we would give LANDMARK CONSTRUCTION AND ENERGY CREW Construction a strong recommendation!"

Chandelier Installation questions, answered by experts

The process to cut a circle in drywall for recessed lighting follows a process similar to the process for cutting outlet holes in drywall. The easiest option for making a perfect circle is to use a circle cutter tool. It makes a smooth circle in the drywall quickly, meaning you’ll have less cleanup work to do later. You just have to know the center point of the recessed light before adjusting the circle cutter tool’s length to create the diameter of the circle cut you need.

When hanging a chandelier, the distance from the ceiling depends on the room and height. For standard 8-9 foot ceilings, chandeliers in living areas or bedrooms should hang 7 feet from the floor. In dining rooms, the chandelier should be placed 30-34 inches above the table. 

For higher or vaulted ceilings, adjust accordingly, ensuring the chandelier remains balanced and visually appealing. Aim for chandeliers in entryways to be 7 feet from the floor or adjust for high ceilings to make a grand statement. Always consider the room's function and the desired lighting effect to achieve the perfect placement.

Some outdoor lighting fixtures are easy to install, like solar pathway lights that don’t need connecting to your electrical system. However, other types of outdoor lighting can be challenging to install, especially if it’s part of a larger electrical system. It’s best to work with a trained electrician for high-voltage outdoor lighting. You might also want to work with a landscaper for installing lighting in high or hard-to-reach areas.

It’s generally best to have your chandelier hang over the center of your dining table. If you’re installing your chandelier first or changing recessed lighting to a chandelier, you might find a table afterward and arrange the room around the chandelier.

If you’ve already furnished the space and are choosing where to place your lighting, hang the fixture directly over the table so everyone is well-lit while they dine.

Motion-sensor lights use one watt while on standby and five watts while turned on. They’re usually on for one hour over a 24-hour period, bringing the total wattage to about 28 watts per day. LED lights use around 6.5 to 8 watts while on. If you leave an LED light on all night, with night ranging from 10 to 14 hours, you’re looking at using 65 to 112 watts a night. You can minimally cut your wattage in half by switching to a motion-sensor light.
