"The work was done very well. In the living room there were no overhead lights. Five recessed lights were installed. The work was done carefully and on time with great cleanup. No dust, no fuss. The basement work was done when we were away. We came back to find an amazing installation at a very reasonable cost. The panel was relocated and a new meter installed outside of the house. It exceeded expectations, with no return visits required."

"Project was replacement of breaker box and electrical riser (the wires on the side of the house from the power company) whose insulation deteriorated and caused water leakage into breaker box during heavy rains. Got three proposals and went with Schedel. Very satisfied. Their honesty, flexibility, and punctuality were commendable. Unlike other contractors, they don't listen to the radio while working. Their quote included relabeling the circuit breakers, a plus since other contractors charge extra. Finally, their quote was significantly lower than the other two contractors. And the payment terms were flexible, to say the least."

"Mr. Woods got back to us and was very conscientious. We did not use him as my mother-in-law found someone else at the same time we were talking to Mr. Woods, but we were impressed that he was concerned about not taking on too many clients and really wanted to know what our needs were and explained what he would and could provide. Unsure he could do it, he suggested tips on the type of contractor we should use and quesions to ask (e.g., do they have a rubber tipped blade to get closer to the cement on an uneaven surface). We'd use service magic again and would recommend Mr. Woods based upon our conversation with him."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

While wet-rated and damp-rated lighting is designed to handle contact with moisture, there’s a difference between the two. Wet-rated lighting is safety-rated to be placed in areas with direct exposure to water, including your shower. Fixtures classed as wet-rated are made with waterproof seals to protect the filament and other electrical components from water and moisture. 

Damp-rated fixtures can be used in places with some moisture contact, but not direct exposure. They don’t have the same waterproof seals used in wet-rated fixtures. Damp-rated lighting can be used on your bathroom ceiling or along a wall outside of your shower.

Although security lighting may not deter a determined burglar, its presence will make your property that much less enticing to would-be trespassers. When paired with other types of home security systems like alarms and surveillance cameras, strong lights will better help you and the authorities identify thieves in the instance they attempt to break in or succeed at doing so. 

If your lights are shorting out during rain storms or other winter events, you should probably replace them. These shorts indicate electrical issues that could cause serious hazards. Look for outdoor-rated lights with connectors made for rainy conditions to replace them. But if your Christmas lights are new and you want further protection, you can find weatherproof covers to add to the male-end connectors of your Christmas light strings. These can minimize the risk of shorts.

Modern outdoor light fixtures are waterproof and weather resistant, and, provided they’re installed correctly and by a professional, the fixture and wiring can last for 20 to 30 years or more. The lifespan will depend largely on the quality of the fixture. The lifespan of the bulb will depend on the type of light you install:

  • CFL bulb (for sustained use): 15,000 hours

  • Halogen bulb (mostly for security): 2,000 hours

  • HID bulbs (for security): 12,000 hours

  • Incandescent bulb: 1,000 hours

  • LED bulb: 50,000 hours

To maintain your outdoor lighting and prevent major issues, you should regularly clean the fixtures, inspect the wiring and connections, and replace worn or burnt-out bulbs promptly. These simple steps ensure consistent operation and extend the life of your lighting system.
