• Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

• Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

• What is the timeline for completion?

• How do you handle change orders?

For a 10-by-10-foot room, you’ll usually need between four and six recessed lights. However, this is a general figure because each space is different.

If they’ll serve as ambient lighting, you’ll need more lights than you would if you were using them for accent lighting.

Outlets need to be particularly robust because of their frequency of use and proximity to liquids. If you need help determining where to install outlets in your kitchen, consult a local electrician who can ensure that placement is functional and up to code.
