"The project went really well. Mike did a nice job of helping with the design work so we got maximum use out of the large open basement. There were overhead vents and pipes and a central steel supporting beam that had to be worked around. Mike and his crew quickly framed in the bedrooms and then ran all the electrical wire for outlets, ceiling lights etc. Drywall was then hung and finished followed by a drop ceiling. Doors and trim were hung and the whole job went very quickly. Less than two weeks as I recall. The basement bathroom was completely redone at the same time and we were very happy with the outcome. New lighting, vent fan, towel bars, sink and toilet. I would definitely have Mike and Konstruct Pros do another remodel for me!! Very pleasant to work with, respectful, hard-working and on time. Delivered what was promised."

Chandelier Installation FAQs, answered by experts

An exterior lighting professional will normally be able to complete hardwired lighting installation in a day or two, depending on the size of the project, and they can install battery-powered or solar-powered lights in just a few hours. DIYing the project will often take a bit longer, but you can typically install battery- or solar-powered exterior lighting in a single weekend.

When it comes to eye health, warm light is much better for you than cool light. Cool light is harsher on the eyes and causes strain. If you’re working in cool light, you may want to consider wearing blue-light glasses to protect your eyes.

Wiring or installing a light the wrong way can lead to potentially dangerous scenarios, including shock and even electrical fires. If you’re the least bit uncertain whether you’ve wired something correctly, the best and safest approach is to call in a professional electrician to handle the installation for you.

You will likely need an electrical permit to install outdoor lighting, but it depends on where you live. Some municipalities don’t require a permit for electrical work, but you should call your building department or ask your outdoor lighting installer if a permit will be necessary. Your professional should pull the permits for you, if required, and close them out after the work is done. Either way, you will be responsible for the permit fee, which typically falls between $50 and $150.

There are four main types of lighting used in homes: ambient, task, accent, and decorative. Within these categories, there are a number of fixtures to choose from including ceiling-mounted lights, floor lamps, under-cabinet lights, track lighting, and more. 

Choosing the fixture that’s right for you depends on your home design and the area you’re looking to illuminate.
