What This Service Covers

Lighting is one of the most visible parts of your electrical system — it affects how a space looks, how safe it is, and how much energy it uses. We install and repair lighting for homes and businesses across Toronto, from a single replacement fixture to a full recessed potlight layout. We also handle exterior and security lighting, dimmers, and lighting controls.

When to Call About Lighting

The signs below do not always mean something is seriously wrong, but they are worth checking out — especially if more than one is present at the same time.

  • Fixtures flicker, buzz, or turn off intermittently
  • A bulb has burnt out and the fixture is hard to reach
  • You want to replace older fixtures with modern LED lighting
  • Switches are cracked, loose, or no longer work
  • You are renovating and want to add potlights or pendant lighting
  • Exterior or security lights have stopped working

Lighting Work We Do

  • Recessed potlight installation and replacement
  • Pendant, chandelier, and vanity fixture installation
  • LED retrofit conversions
  • Exterior and landscape lighting
  • Motion-activated and photocell security lighting
  • Dimmer and smart-switch installation
  • Fluorescent and troffer replacement for commercial spaces

Safety Considerations

  • We turn off and verify the circuit before working on any fixture.
  • We check fixture ratings against the box and bulb wattage to avoid overheating.
  • For recessed lighting in insulated ceilings, we use IC-rated fixtures.
  • We ensure exterior fixtures are rated for wet or damp locations.

FAQ

Lighting Installation & Repairs — Common Questions

Can I install potlights myself?
Installing potlights involves cutting into ceilings, running new wiring, and making connections inside junction boxes — and in Toronto this work requires an ESA permit and inspection. Incorrectly installed potlights are a common cause of ceiling fires. We recommend having a qualified electrician do the work.
Can I put LED bulbs in my older fixtures?
In most cases yes, as long as the bulb wattage and base type match the fixture rating. Some enclosed fixtures need LED bulbs rated for enclosed use, and some older dimmers are not compatible with LED bulbs. We can advise on the right combination and upgrade dimmers where needed.
Do you install smart lighting and dimmers?
Yes. We install dimmers, smart switches, and lighting controls. Not every existing switch box has a neutral wire, which some smart switches require — we check your wiring and recommend compatible products.
Can you add a switch to a light that is currently controlled by a pull chain?
Usually yes. We can run a new switch leg and install a wall switch, or convert the fixture to a remote-controlled setup depending on the wiring access and your preference.
