Older homes in El Cajon and Lemon Grove sometimes have aluminum wiring on branch circuits, a known fire risk when connected to standard copper-terminal fixtures without the right anti-oxidant compound and listed connectors. We identify aluminum wiring before quoting fixture replacements and use only AL/CU-rated devices or pigtail with copper wire using listed connectors.

My ceiling doesn't have an existing light, can you install one?

If there's an existing switch controlling nothing (a switched outlet or a blank), we may be able to work from that. A completely new circuit run from the panel is a specialist electrician job. We'll assess and tell you exactly what category it falls into when we look at it.

Can I use any dimmer switch with my LED lights?

Not all dimmers work with all LEDs. We'll check the dimmer's compatibility list against your bulb brand before installing, an incompatible dimmer can cause flickering, buzzing, or shortened bulb life. If you already bought a dimmer, bring the box so we can check it.
