Q: Which type of lighting is best for low ceilings?

• <div><p>Flush mount or semi-flush mount fixtures are the best option for low ceilings. They closely hug or directly connect to the ceiling, offering ample room underneath so there won&rsquo;t be a collision hazard when you&rsquo;re walking through the room.</p></div>

Q: What are my recessed lighting options?

• <div><p>Recessed lighting comes in hundreds of designs. Modern LED recessed lights have a longer lifespan than traditional incandescent bulbs. You can get integrated wafer canless bulbs that fit flush into the ceiling, even under a joist. In the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-vs-canless-recessed-lighting.htm">can vs. canless recessed lighting</a> discussion, both have their merits depending on your budget and ceiling space.</p></div>

Q: What is the average duration for installing a single fixture?

• <div><p>Installation typically takes 1-3 hours per fixture. Larger projects may require additional time.</p></div>

Q: How far should recessed lights be from the wall?

• <div><p>There aren't any hard and fast rules about how far recessed lights should be from the wall. It depends on your needs for the lighting. For instance, if you want to highlight a specific piece of art on the wall, you'll want to install lighting close to it. But if you want to illuminate an entire room, you might want your lighting farther from the wall.</p><p>A general guideline of one-and-a-half to three feet from the wall is a good place to start, but in the end, you want to make sure the lighting meets your unique needs.</p></div>

Jon, Ler and Emanuel L were the crew who installed 5 piers on the corner of my house. They were very efficient, and left things looking exactly as before they did the job. I received updates as their work progressed.
