"Ludwing did an amazing job! He installed a new light fixture in my home and what I appreciated the most was that he explained the connection to the wiring and how things work. This was very helpful because he corrected a job from a handyman who installed a light fixture that could have destroyed my home. He is a master of his craft. Not only will I use him for future projects but have also shared his contact with friends needing electronic assistance."
"Outstanding! Super professional. Offered advice on my electrical installation and did the work quickly. I was very pleased with the end installation."
"Dominic was great. He arrived right on time and started tracing a hard-to-find short. For over four hours he checked socket after socket, switch after switch, ultimately crawling through spaces I didn't know existed. He found the problem, a rodent-chewed wire that was a likely fire hazard. He corrected the problem with new junction boxes and updated the outdoor sockets. He demonstrated a level of knowledge, professionalism and determination that puts him at the top of my list of go-to electricians. I'll be asking him back soon to take care of some outdoor lights that need upgrading. I hope he won't be bored!"
"The light switch in my bathroom started making a sound and I could smell it burning. I called the company as soon as they opened. I got the owner on the phone and he said he could have someone come out to my house later that day and gave on instructions on handling the light switch until his employee arrived. His employee called prior to visit to let me know he when he would arrive. The employee arrived on time, replaced the old switch and installed in a new switch. They charge by the hour and there was still time left over, so I was able to have him check on some other electrical issues. He gave me his assessment the issues and his recommendation for the products I needed. He also worked with the owner to offer me a discount when I was ready to get those items installed. I will be using their services again soon."
"The speakers were installed nicely. Although they were installed too close to wall and now limiting my options for screen install. The owner is very knowledgeable and I wish he was present on the day of install."
"Friendly. Answers phone calls immediately. Antonio called the day of the service to confirm appointment. He arrived on time. Installed 2 ceiling fans in a timely manner. Cost- effective. I would recommend and hire again"
"I was looking to install a kitchen island in my condo and reached out to Daniel after seeing him highly recommended on Nextdoor. He was able to provide a UL approved solution for the electricity that other electricians were not without having to trench concrete. I appreciated the fact that Daniel answered my questions throughly and gave me different options. The work was completed in a timely manner and Daniel kept the work area tidy and vacuumed to clean up any dust afterwards. I would highly recommend and will use him going forward"
"I was looking for someone to install two newly purchased Google Nest floodlight cameras and requested quotes from about seven different contractors. After comparing my options, I decided to move forward with Mr. Deepak because his pricing was by far the most reasonable. He came out, completed the installation exactly where and how we wanted it, was respectful and professional throughout the entire process, and got the job done without any unnecessary complications. I’ve already saved Mr. Deepak’s number and will absolutely contact him again for any future electrical projects. Fair pricing, good work, and a straightforward experience from start to finish. Five stars. Highly recommend!"

The type of lighting you choose can have a big part in the aesthetic and function of your space. Ambient lighting refers to indirect or diffused lighting that evenly reaches most areas of the space. Task lighting illuminates specific areas, such as a workspace. Accent lighting draws attention to details in your home, and decorative lighting draws attention to itself.
When replacing a chandelier, there is little need to do any significant re-modifications. The cost will vary depending on whether the existing wiring is functional. Expect to pay around $115 to $280. If you install a chandelier in a position without any wiring, installation costs range from $145 to $400. Certain factors can also increase the price, such as upgrading junction boxes or installing heavy fixtures.

This is definitely a matter of personal taste, but certain spaces might be better suited to recessed lighting than others. Areas where you need good task lighting, such as the laundry room, kitchen, or home office could be good candidates for recessed LED lighting. You also might choose to use it for a sleek, subtle lighting option in a living room where you want to highlight other aspects of the space.
A ceiling light will usually have two or three wires: black, white, and sometimes green. Black wires are positive, or hot, while white wires are negative, or neutral. The green wire is the grounding wire.
When you’re wiring the light, connect black to black, white to white, and green to the grounding screw.
