MAIN 200ALighting Installation in Berkeley, CA
Half of lighting work is layout, not wiring. Where the cans land relative to walls and cabinets decides whether a Berkeley kitchen reads bright and even or striped with shadows, so we lay it out on the ceiling with you before a single hole gets cut.

Situations we see in Berkeley
Kitchen has dark counters
Overhead cans light the floor, not the work surface. Under-cabinet lighting fixes the shadow your body casts when you stand at the counter.
Ceiling fan wobbles or the box is loose
Standard boxes are not rated for fan loads. We install a fan-rated brace box, which is the actual fix for a wobble.
Outdoor lights on all day
A failed photocell or a timer that lost its schedule. Both are quick calls, and worth bundling with any other outdoor work.
New LEDs flicker or buzz
The dimmer and the driver are mismatched. Swapping to a compatible ELV or forward-phase dimmer usually ends it immediately.

Reviews from Alameda County
Six recessed lights in the living room and a dimmer that finally doesn't buzz. They laid the whole layout out on the ceiling with tape first, which I appreciated.
Tom R.Lighting installation · BerkeleyWe needed a 200 amp panel before our EV charger install. They did the load calculation, pulled the permit, and had the whole thing done and inspected in a week.
Priya N.Panel upgrade · BerkeleyKitchen breaker kept popping whenever we ran the microwave and kettle. They put in a dedicated circuit instead of just telling us to use one appliance at a time.

How much does recessed lighting installation cost in Berkeley?
Price per light drops as the count goes up, and attic access above the room makes a real difference. A six-light living room with attic access is a straightforward job. Call (833) 652-8933 for a per-room quote.
Can you add recessed lights without tearing up my ceiling?
In most Berkeley homes, yes. Canless LED fixtures need only a small circular cut, and with attic access above we can wire without opening the ceiling further.
Do you install fixtures I bought myself?
Yes, that is very common. Bring your own chandelier, fan or downlights and we will install and wire them.
Can you install landscape lighting in Berkeley?
Yes, including low-voltage transformers, buried runs, path and uplighting, and timer or photocell control.
Why do my dimmable LEDs still flicker?
Because the dimmer predates the bulb. Older leading-edge dimmers were built for incandescent loads. We match the dimmer to the driver and the flicker goes away.
