FAQs
What types of lighting upgrades can you install in my Tullahoma home or business?
We handle a full spectrum of lighting improvements, including recessed can lights, elegant pendant and chandelier installations, under-cabinet task lighting, exterior security and landscape lighting, smart-controlled LED fixtures, and complete fixture retrofits that replace outdated fluorescent or incandescent systems. If you need specialty solutions—such as high-bay LED conversions for warehouses or color-tunable lighting for hospitality spaces—we design, source, and install those as well.
How will upgrading to LED lighting actually save me money?
Modern LED fixtures use up to 75 % less electricity than traditional incandescent or halogen bulbs and roughly 40–50 % less than compact fluorescents. They also last 15,000–50,000 hours, meaning you purchase and change bulbs far less often. In an average Tullahoma single-family home, swapping twenty 60-W incandescent bulbs for 9-W LEDs can trim about $200 a year off your electric bill. Commercial facilities see even larger gains, and TVA rebate programs can offset a portion of the upfront cost.
Do I need a permit for lighting upgrades in Tullahoma, and do you handle that paperwork?
Any time new circuits, branch wiring, or major fixture relocations are involved, Tullahoma codes require an electrical permit and inspection. For simple lamp or one-for-one fixture replacements, a permit usually isn’t necessary. As a licensed and insured electrical contractor, we obtain all required permits, coordinate inspections with the City of Tullahoma Building Department, and provide you with final documentation for your records.
How long does a typical lighting upgrade project take, and will my power be shut off?
Most residential retrofit jobs—such as converting a kitchen and living area to recessed LED lighting—are completed in one day. Whole-home or large commercial projects can range from two days to a week, depending on scope and ceiling access. We schedule work in stages, so only the circuit we’re actively working on is de-energized, keeping the rest of your home or facility operational. For businesses, we can perform upgrades after hours or on weekends to minimize downtime.
Will new LED fixtures fit into my existing ceilings or walls, or will additional drywall work be required?
In many cases we use ultra-slim, remodel-style LED fixtures designed to fit through the same cut-outs as old recessed cans or junction boxes, eliminating the need for drywall repair. When new wiring paths or larger openings are unavoidable, our crew patches and finishes small holes as part of the project. For extensive architectural changes—like adding cove lighting—we coordinate with drywall and painting professionals to deliver a seamless finish.
How much do lighting upgrades cost, and how do I get an estimate?
Pricing depends on fixture style, quantity, accessibility, and whether new dimmers or smart controls are included. A straightforward swap to LED recessed lights in a 250-sq-ft kitchen might run $800–$1,200, while a whole-home smart retrofit could range from $3,000–$8,000. We offer free on-site assessments in the Tullahoma area. After evaluating your goals, we provide a written, line-item proposal that details parts, labor, any permit fees, available utility rebates, and projected energy savings so you can make an informed decision.
