Recessed Lighting Installation in Menlo Park, CA

The difference between a good recessed lighting job and a poor one is layout. Before we cut a single hole in your Menlo Park ceiling, we mark the positions, check for joists and obstructions, and confirm spacing with you. Then we wire the lights, put them on a dimmer and leave the room clean.

Recessed lighting installation questions from Menlo Park customers

How many recessed lights do I need?

A common starting point is one light for every four to six feet of ceiling, adjusted for ceiling height, room use and the brightness of the fixture. We lay it out with you before cutting.

Will you have to tear up my ceiling?

No. Each light needs only its own hole, and we fish the cable between them. Where a joist or fire block is in the way, we may make one small extra access hole.

What color temperature should I choose?

Warm white around 2700K to 3000K suits living spaces; 3000K to 3500K is popular in kitchens and baths. Many fixtures we install are selectable, so you can decide once they are up.
