"Great family run electrical company with highly trained and professional technicians! William is very friendly and a pleasure to be around! He helped me install lights, chandeliers and dimmers throughout my home. Definitely the best electrician in the area!"
"Anthony showed up promptly at 8:30 AM as scheduled Went right to work installing outside receptacle and installing covers on two existing outdoor receptacles, He then installed a bedroom ceiling fan.. Anthony was professional, polite,friendly, and does excellent work. We plan to have him return in the near future to install recessed lighting in tow rooms.
"Dan and his son Tyler did an outstanding job. The basement was broken up in separate spaces including a 22' by 7' area which will double as a plant room during the winter time. He installed a counter and sink in this space and added a floor to ceiling built in bookshelf. To close off this area from the main space, he also installed a barn door which looks great. In the main area the work was done to perfection. The bathroom is a little jewel and we could not be happier with the work that was done. Dan and Tyler also went above and beyond when they moved furniture from the main floor to the basement and also put up additional shelves for us. I told Dan to pencil us in for the same time next year to update our main bathroom!"
"Alex provided help with the process of ordering the cabinets and getting everthing set up The cabinets arrived on time.The job was started the day that he promised me and the workers did an excellent job The only thing that went wrong was that a order for a light was Messed up which was the fault of the lighting provider"
"Installed a dedicated electrical receptacle for the smart bidet i purchased. Everything was done in no time & even fixed a switch in spare bath for the exhaust that was a timer switch & was constantly running."
"He's always very prompt. He's here when he said he was gonna be here. He was on time on the job. They clean before they left. He was fair with his pricing. What I really like about them is that it was one contractor, one price. He didn't have any subcontractors working for him. He's here everyday to find out what are concerns on a daily basis and address those concerns as the project went along. The other that I like is that we were able to pick out of some of the stuff he included in the price like the drywall and the cement board but I was able to go out and pick out my own tile that I wanted to use. My own vanity and countertops that I wanted countertops. He allowed me to pick all those materials out myself and then he installed it. He's absolutely the best as far as his tile works."
"I purchased a deal for 2 hrs of carpentry a few years ago but never used it. I found it while I was getting new granite for the kitchen last year. I called to ask if he would install brackets to support the granite and use the old voucher as payment and he did. What a nice, stand up, honest guy. I HIGHLY recommend Jeff."
"Seamless professional work in a timely manner. The ceiling fans were complex to program on their own so Mike contacted the vendor and synced them up quickly. He did other work including an attic fan and much more. I have referred Mike to many of my Real Estate clients and he always comes through with exceptional results."
"The overall experience with AJWDS was excellent with pricing, service, and installation. Would not hesitate to use their services again. The installation crew was efficient and completed the project much quicker that I anticipated knowing the pending weather constraints."
If you’re planning to use an LED in an enclosed fixture like a lantern, check that the bulb is rated for enclosed spaces. LEDs are sensitive to heat, and overheating can lower their lifespan. While you can still use some LEDs safely in enclosed areas, it must be the right LED.
Depending on your preference, a 100W bulb could be too bright for a bedroom. Most people prefer softer, relaxing bedroom lighting using a lower wattage bulb, around 40W to 60W for incandescent or the equivalent in LED (around 450 to 800 lumens). For adjustable brightness, consider using dimmable bulbs or layered lighting with bedside lamps and overhead lights to create a comfortable and versatile lighting environment.
There are a variety of outdoor lighting types, and you should consider a few factors before selecting which ones you want for your home. Durability is a major factor if you live in an area that faces storms, extreme temperatures, or other harsh weather. Take the intended location, lamp size, and style into account as well.
LED lights last much longer than conventional incandescent light bulbs. Most manufacturers estimate that LED bulbs can last between 10 and 15 years, but they more often last between four and seven years with regular use. Other factors, such as heat exposure and surging electrical currents, can cause an LED bulb to burn out prematurely.
Some outdoor lighting fixtures are easy to install, like solar pathway lights that don’t need connecting to your electrical system. However, other types of outdoor lighting can be challenging to install, especially if it’s part of a larger electrical system. It’s best to work with a trained electrician for high-voltage outdoor lighting. You might also want to work with a landscaper for installing lighting in high or hard-to-reach areas.
