MAIN 200ALighting Installation in Los Altos Hills, CA
Flicker and buzz are the most common complaints we get after someone else's LED install in Los Altos Hills. Almost always it is a dimmer that was never rated for the driver in the fixture, and it is a quick fix once you know what to look for.
Call (833) 652-8933 and describe what is happening. If it is a same-day job we will book it today, and if it needs a site visit to quote properly we will tell you that too.

Situations we see in Los Altos Hills
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.
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.
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.
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.

Reviews from Santa Clara County
Warehouse high bay retrofit to LED. Did it over a weekend so we never stopped shipping, and the place is twice as bright.
Greg L.Warehouse lighting · Los Altos HillsKitchen 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.

Bill T.Troubleshooting · Los Altos HillsLighting Installation in Los Altos Hills — questions
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 add recessed lights without tearing up my ceiling?
In most Los Altos Hills homes, yes. Canless LED fixtures need only a small circular cut, and with attic access above we can wire without opening the ceiling further.
How much does recessed lighting installation cost in Los Altos Hills?
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 install landscape lighting in Los Altos Hills?
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.
