Why is light fixtures different in Coastal San Diego?

Coastal humidity is hard on junction boxes and wiring in older beach homes, we regularly find corroded wire nuts and backstabbed connections that work fine in dry climates but cause issues in damp Pacific Beach and Coronado attic spaces. We inspect the junction box and all connection points when swapping a fixture, not just the fixture itself.

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.
