Each Extra Light: $269
Add as many lights as the room needs at the same flat price per light.
Plaster Ceilings: Priced On Site

Finished Basements

Recessed Lighting Questions
How much does recessed lighting installation cost in NJ?
A room with four recessed lights and a new switch runs $1,200 to $1,600 on a drywall ceiling. Each extra light is $269. Plaster ceilings cost more because they take more care to cut and patch. You get a flat price before we start.
How long does it take to install recessed lights?
Most rooms are done in one day, including clean-up.
Do I need a permit for recessed lighting in New Jersey?
Adding new lights and a new switch usually needs a town electrical permit. We pull it for you when the job needs one.
Will you have to tear up my ceiling?
No. We work through the small hole for each light, so most jobs need no big openings. If something above the ceiling is in the way, we tell you before we cut.
Can recessed lights go on a dimmer?
Yes. We match the dimmer to the lights so they dim smoothly without flickering, and we can add Lutron smart switches you control from your phone.
What color light should I pick?
Most homeowners like warm white in living rooms and bedrooms and a slightly brighter white in kitchens and bathrooms. Many LED lights have a small switch so you can pick the color.
