"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."

"Good...the last time I had someone out is was an electrician and he replaced a ballister and tried to fix the bathroom light fixture but it was non repairable so I was given an allowance to replace it and now I have a cute light fixture all spanking new."

Chandelier Installation FAQs, answered by experts

To achieve the optimal lighting output from your under-cabinet lights, position the LED tape towards the front of the cabinet with the LEDs facing downward. For effective illumination of the work surface and backsplash, place the tape light approximately one to two inches behind the cabinet's front edge. This mounting configuration is especially suitable for dull or matte surfaces.

When installing a chandelier in a high-ceiling room of two stories or more, don't let it hang any lower than the first floor. This job will require an extra tall ladder or scaffold, which may require a professional. Installing a light fixture costs between $150 and $1,500, depending on the expertise and supplies necessary to hang the fixture.

Due to safety concerns, always check with a local professional before completing this kind of project. There are many professionals who specialize in heavy lighting installation. 

Incandescent lights are glass bulbs with metallic filaments inside, while LEDs feature “light emitting diodes” that illuminate when they come in contact with an electrical current. You can buy either for your Christmas lights, but note that LED lights are more energy-efficient and have a longer lifespan.

For every foot of ceiling height, your chandelier should have two to three inches of height. To calculate the width of the ideal chandelier, determine the width and length of the room.

Add these two numbers together and that is the number of inches wide your chandelier should be. For example, if your room is 15 feet wide and 15 feet tall, you will need a chandelier that is 30 inches wide.

Halogen and LED light bulbs are the most common bulbs for recessed lighting, but you don’t need any special type. LEDs are growing in popularity because they’re the most energy-efficient, which can help you save money in the long run and minimize how often you need to change your light bulbs.
