More Than Just Swapping a Bulb
Lighting work covers a wide range of projects, from replacing a dated fixture to installing recessed lighting throughout an entire floor of the home. What they have in common is that they all involve your home’s electrical system, which means they need to be done by a licensed electrician who understands how to work safely within that system. Five Star handles lighting projects of every scope, from a single fixture swap to a full lighting plan for a renovation, and we approach each one with the same care and code compliance regardless of the size of the job.
Lighting Installation
Whether you’re updating a dining room fixture, adding recessed lighting to a kitchen, installing under-cabinet lighting, or putting in exterior lighting for security or curb appeal, Five Star handles the installation from start to finish. This includes any wiring work needed to support the new fixtures, switch installation, and dimmer compatibility where applicable. We also handle ceiling fan installations, which combine lighting and airflow in a single fixture and require proper electrical support to operate safely. If you have a fixture in mind, we can install it. If you’re not sure what will work best in a space, we can help you think through the options.
Lighting Repair
Lighting problems range from minor nuisances to indicators of something more significant going on in the electrical system. A fixture that flickers, a switch that no longer controls the light it’s supposed to, recessed lights that go dark intermittently, or a ceiling fan that hums or wobbles are all worth addressing. In some cases the fix is straightforward. In others, a flickering light is the first sign of a loose connection or a wiring issue in the circuit that warrants a closer look. Our electricians diagnose lighting problems accurately so the repair addresses the actual cause rather than just the symptom.
Outdoor and Security Lighting
Exterior lighting serves a practical purpose beyond aesthetics. Motion-activated lights, pathway lighting, and security fixtures deter intrusion, improve visibility around the home at night, and add to the overall safety of the property. Five Star installs and repairs outdoor lighting of all types, including fixtures mounted to the home’s exterior, post lights, and landscape lighting tied into the home’s electrical system. All outdoor electrical work is done to weatherproof standards and meets current code for exterior installations.
