FAQs
What types of lighting upgrades do you offer in Elora?
We install and retrofit a full range of modern lighting solutions, including high-efficiency LED fixtures, smart Wi-Fi or Zigbee-enabled bulbs, recessed pot lights, under-cabinet task lighting, exterior security lights, and decorative architectural accents. Whether it’s a residential kitchen remodel, a retail showroom, or an industrial shop floor, our licensed electricians design a system that meets Ontario electrical code, your aesthetic goals, and your energy-saving targets.
How much energy can I save by switching to LED lighting?
LED lamps typically use 70–85 % less electricity than equivalent incandescent or halogen bulbs and about 40–50 % less than most compact fluorescents. For a home with 40 fixtures, the annual hydro bill can drop by $200–$400, while a small business that runs lights 10–12 hours a day can see savings of $1.00–$1.50 per fixture per month. LEDs also last up to 50,000 hours, so you’ll save on replacement costs and maintenance trips up the ladder.
Are there government or utility rebates available for lighting upgrades in Elora?
Yes. Through the Save on Energy program administered by the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) in Ontario, many commercial and small-business customers can receive prescriptive incentives on LED fixtures, networked lighting controls, and occupancy sensors. Residential customers may qualify for occasional Enbridge or Hydro One instant rebates offered at local retailers. Our team stays current on all incentives and will prepare the paperwork so you capture every available dollar.
How long does a typical lighting upgrade take?
A standard residential retrofit of 20–40 fixtures can usually be completed in one day with minimal disruption. Larger homes or projects that involve new wiring and smart controls may take 2–3 days. For commercial spaces, we schedule work in phases or after hours to keep your business running; a 5,000 ft² retail floor generally takes 1–2 evenings, while a 20,000 ft² warehouse might require a week. We provide a detailed timeline upfront so you know exactly what to expect.
Will modern lighting upgrades increase my property value or aesthetic appeal?
Absolutely. Bright, colour-accurate LED lighting makes rooms look larger and more inviting, which translates to higher perceived value for prospective buyers or tenants. Smart dimming and tunable-white fixtures let you set the perfect ambience for entertaining, working, or relaxing. For commercial properties, improved lighting can enhance merchandising, boost employee productivity, and heighten customer satisfaction—all factors that raise valuation and rental rates.
What is the cost of a lighting upgrade and how is it calculated?
Pricing depends on the number of fixtures, their wattage, control options, and installation complexity. In Elora, a straightforward bulb-only replacement can start at $10–$15 per socket, while full fixture swaps with smart controls typically range from $80 to $250 per point of light. We provide a free on-site assessment, calculate energy savings, factor in available rebates, and give you a fixed quotation before any work begins. Most upgrades pay for themselves through hydro savings within 1–3 years.
