Recessed lighting installation in Hamilton: local conditions matter
Hamilton is in Allegan County in West Michigan, where lake-effect snow off Lake Michigan and humid summers both take a toll on electrical equipment. The area has everything from century-old farmhouses to fast-growing subdivisions, and recessed lighting installation can look a little different in each. We start by learning what your building has now.
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 Hamilton homes with attics above, we use airtight fixtures so heated air is not lost through the ceiling in winter.
