Recessed lighting comes in hundreds of designs. Modern LED recessed lights have a longer lifespan than traditional incandescent bulbs.

In the can vs. canless recessed lighting discussion, both have their merits depending on your budget and ceiling space.

You should hire a licensed electrician who is insured to perform any electrical work on your home, including lighting installation. States have different requirements for licensing and certifying electricians, so use Angi’s state licensing tool to review local guidelines.

Here are a few questions to ask electricians before hiring:

• How many years of electrical experience do you have?

• Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

• Do you work with subcontractors?

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

• What is the timeline for completion?

• How do you handle change orders?

• Can you provide at least three customer references?

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.
