"Dave and his associate, Milton, were great. I hired them with the "electrician for a day" package on Angie's List, and it was worth every penny. They worked efficiently and yet took the time to answer my questions and explain things. My toddler was running around the whole time, and they were both sweet with her and patient. They used tarps to make sure no dust, etc. got on my stuff, and cleaned up as they went--I'd truly never have guessed they had been there! A few minor snafus came up, and they handled them with confidence and skill--in fact, we had made some mistakes when trying to install the family room fan, and I'm glad they were here because they were able to fix them so the installation was safe. Thanks to the deal on Angie's List, the cost ended up being much more reasonable than other quotes I had gotten (one electrician wanted almost $400 just to change three plugs to GFCI). Dave showed me the receipt for some additional parts he had had to purchase, and I appreciated the transparency. I am already planning to have them come back out for some other projects I have in the near future. I had the hardest time getting some electricians to even call me back, so I'm relieved I have some quality electricians I can call in future."

"We hired and worked with Rocco on two simultaneous bathroom renovations on the second floor of our house. (We were responsible for purchasing most materials, and Rocco and his team then worked with them.) While we did not vary the footprint, we did have them lower a few walls and replace them with glass in order to "open up" two rather claustrophobic shower stalls. We also installed new lighting and ventilation, along with replacing all of the existing fixtures. Working with Rocco and his son, Rocco Jr, was a lovely experience from start to finish. Rocco, Rocco Jr, and all of their subcontractors are exceedingly polite and professional and highly skilled. The tile work and custom glass for the showers were precise; the plumbing and electrical functions very well. The whole thing took about 8 weeks from start to finish, and we are very pleased with the results. Love our new bathrooms, and would not hesitate to use Rocco & team again! [Note: pictures were taken before glass was in, but give you a good idea of the look/craftsmanship.]"

"This was the second remodeling job for which I hired Peter and Bobby from All -Pro Remodeling and Painting, LLC. Following a magnificent renovation of my master bath, I decided to have our guest bathroom renovated as well. As perfectly as our first bathroom remodel was completed, the second bathroom was just as perfect. Peter and his coworker, Bobby were always prompt and courteous as well as friendly and funny; listening to what I wanted and basically doing things before I even asked because they knew my taste and perfectionistic ideals! From laying out the shower surround tile in a perfect pattern to helping me choose the paint color and fixtures, Peter and Bobby were on point in every decision. Their meticulous attention to detail and neatness would be appreciated by any homeowner who is looking to remodel their home. It is without hesitation that I would highly recommend All-Pro Remodeling for all of your renovation needs. I have included pictures of both the guest bathroom and master bath renovations! I know that I will be working with them in the near future, again!!!"

Chandelier Installation questions, answered by experts

It’s best to have the recommended support for any lighting fixture you install, and you could be risking injury to someone if you hang a chandelier without a stud. The chandelier could potentially fall, shatter, and hurt you or someone else, and you’ll need to have an additional hanging fixture, such as a hook to hold the lighting in place.

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.

The cost of installing light fixtures can vary due to the wide range of factors that affect the price. The type of lighting fixture, ranging from track lighting to a chandelier, impacts the installation cost, with ceiling-mounted fixtures being the most budget-friendly. You should also consider the labor costs associated with removing the existing light fixture, if necessary, and installing the new one. Don’t forget that the purchase price of the new or replacement fixture is separate from the installation price tag. 

You don’t need to be an electrician to change a light bulb. You also don’t have to be an electrician to replace a light fixture with another compatible one. But, if you are installing a light fixture for the first time, it’s worth hiring a licensed professional for the job.

While a handyperson may charge a bit less, a qualified professional can make sure everything is up to code and working exactly as it should be. This is especially true for more complicated lighting projects.

Security lights perform the best when placed in entry points like garages, front doors, porches, and backdoors. Landscaping lighting like pathway lamps will also make it more difficult to conceal themselves on their way to your home, increasing the likelihood that you or a neighbor will spot them before they arrive.
