FAQs
What types of lighting upgrades do you offer for homes and businesses in Sewanee?
Our licensed electricians handle a full spectrum of upgrades, including LED retrofits, recessed and track lighting installations, outdoor and landscape lighting, smart lighting controls, emergency and exit lighting, energy-efficient fixture replacements, and complete rewiring for lighting circuits.
How can lighting upgrades reduce my energy bills?
Modern LED fixtures use up to 75% less electricity than traditional incandescent or halogen bulbs and last 15–25 times longer. By combining LEDs with occupancy sensors, daylight-harvesting dimmers, and smart scheduling, many Sewanee clients see utility bill reductions of 30–60% within the first year.
Do I need a permit for lighting upgrades in Sewanee?
For most projects that involve new wiring, circuit alterations, or fixture changes exceeding 50 VA, the city of Sewanee requires an electrical permit. We handle the permitting process, schedule inspections, and ensure all work follows the latest NEC and local building codes.
Can you integrate my new lights with a smart home system?
Yes. We install Wi-Fi, Z-Wave, Zigbee, and Matter-compatible switches and fixtures that sync with platforms like Amazon Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, and proprietary systems (e.g., Lutron Caséta). You’ll be able to control brightness, color temperature, and schedules from your phone or voice assistant.
How long does a typical lighting upgrade project take?
Timeline depends on scope: a simple LED swap in a single room can be completed in 1–2 hours, while whole-home retrofits or commercial build-outs may take 1–5 days. We provide a detailed schedule after the on-site assessment and coordinate work to minimize disruption to your routine or business operations.
What warranties and guarantees do you provide?
All labor is backed by a 2-year workmanship warranty, and most LED fixtures come with manufacturer warranties ranging from 5–10 years. If any workmanship-related issue arises within the warranty period, we will repair or replace the affected component at no additional cost.
