   Design consultation & layout

   We walk the space with you, plan fixture spacing and beam angle for the room, and map how new lighting ties into existing switches and circuits.

   We confirm your panel and existing circuits have capacity for the added fixtures, and recommend a dedicated circuit or panel upgrade if they don’t.

3. 3

   Installation

   We cut precise fixture openings, run wiring through ceiling cavities with minimal drywall disruption, and install and trim out each fixture.

4. 4

   Finish, dimmer setup & walkthrough

   We install and pair any dimmers or smart controls, test every fixture, and walk you through the controls before we leave.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many potlights can my current panel handle?

It depends on your existing circuit capacity and the wattage of the fixtures. We assess your panel as part of every lighting quote and recommend a panel upgrade if needed.

Do you install smart lighting and dimmer systems?

Yes, we install smart switches, dimmers, and app- or voice-controlled lighting systems alongside standard potlight and fixture installations.

How many potlights do I need for a room?

It depends on room size, ceiling height, and fixture wattage. As a rough guide, most rooms use one potlight per 4-6 square feet of ceiling space. We recommend a layout during your free quote based on your specific room.

How much does potlight installation cost?

Cost depends on the number of fixtures, whether you have attic or ceiling access, and if any panel or circuit work is needed. We provide a per-fixture quote after seeing the space.

Can potlights be installed in a finished ceiling without major drywall repair?

In most cases yes: we cut precise fixture openings and route wiring through existing ceiling cavities, keeping drywall patching to a minimum.
