Your local choice for recessed lighting installation in East Tawas, MI
East Tawas is part of Iosco County in Northern Michigan, an area of year-round homes, seasonal cottages and cabins tucked into the woods and along the lakes. Many of these places were built for summer use and later converted, so the wiring is often lighter than a full-time home needs. That is the background to most of the recessed lighting installation we do in East Tawas.
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 East Tawas homes with attics above, we use airtight fixtures so heated air is not lost through the ceiling in winter.
