Your local choice for recessed lighting installation in Birmingham, MI
Summer storms and winter ice both cause outages and surges across Southeast Michigan. Customers in Birmingham often call us after one of those events has exposed a weak point. Our electricians serving Oakland County approach recessed lighting installation with reliability and protection in mind.
Getting recessed lighting right
The difference between a good recessed lighting job and a poor one is layout. Too few lights leave scallops and shadows. Too many make a ceiling look like an airport runway. As a starting point we space fixtures at about half the ceiling height, then adjust for cabinets, beams and seating. In Birmingham homes with attics above, we use airtight fixtures so heated air is not lost through the ceiling in winter.
