FAQs
Why should I consider upgrading the lighting in my Decherd home or business?
Modern lighting upgrades dramatically lower energy consumption, reduce maintenance costs, and provide better light quality and control. Switching from outdated incandescent or fluorescent fixtures to high-efficiency LEDs can cut lighting electricity usage by up to 70 percent. You also gain longer lamp life, less heat output, and options such as dimming, color tuning, and smart automation that improve comfort and productivity.
What specific lighting upgrade services do you offer in Decherd?
Our licensed electricians handle complete retrofit and new-install solutions, including LED fixture replacement, recessed can conversions, under-cabinet and accent lighting, high-bay and exterior security upgrades, emergency and exit lighting, ceiling fan lights, landscape lighting, and full smart-lighting integrations. We manage design, product selection, permitting, installation, and final inspection so you receive a turnkey solution.
How long does a typical residential lighting upgrade take?
Most single-family projects are completed in one day or less. We begin with a walkthrough to confirm fixture locations and circuit capacity, then shut off power, remove old fixtures, install new LEDs or smart switches, test operation, and clean up. Larger homes or jobs that require new wiring or panel work can take 2–3 days, but we always schedule work to minimize disruption to your household.
Will upgrading to LED fixtures really lower my monthly utility bills?
Yes. LEDs use about one-tenth of the electricity of incandescent lamps and roughly half that of compact fluorescents for the same light output. For a typical Decherd household running lights an average of four hours per day, upgrading 25 fixtures can save $150–$250 per year in energy costs alone, plus additional savings from reduced bulb replacements and HVAC loads caused by lower heat output.
Do I need a permit or inspection for lighting upgrades in Decherd?
In most cases simple fixture swaps do not require a city permit, but any project involving new circuits, additional wiring, or modifications to the service panel must be permitted and inspected under state and local codes. As a licensed contractor, we determine the correct permitting path, file the paperwork with the Franklin County Building & Codes Department, and coordinate all inspections to ensure full compliance.
Can you incorporate smart controls, dimmers, and voice automation into my lighting upgrade?
Absolutely. We install Wi-Fi, Zigbee, and Z-Wave compatible switches, dimmers, and smart bulbs that integrate with Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Apple HomeKit. Options include occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting for automatic brightness adjustment, scene presets, and remote scheduling via smartphone. These controls not only add convenience but also boost energy savings by ensuring lights operate only when needed.
