Why LED lights need the right dimmer

Older dimmers were designed for incandescent bulbs that drew far more power. Put an LED on one and you often get flicker, a faint buzz or lights that will not go fully off. Dimmers made for LED loads solve this, and most have an adjustment for the low end of the range. We test every dimmer we install in Michigan with the actual fixtures on the circuit.

Signs you need switch installation

  • A switch is hot, crackles or works only sometimes
  • LED lights flicker or hum when dimmed
  • You have to cross a dark room to reach the switch
  • The bath fan gets left on for hours
  • You want voice or app control of lighting

What does switch installation cost in Michigan?

Switch and dimmer installation cost in Michigan depends on the type of control and whether new wiring is involved. A like-for-like swap is quick. Adding a three-way location or a neutral for a smart switch takes more work. Doing several switches in one visit lowers the price of each.

How it works

  • Call (888) 633-7804. Tell us what is happening. For urgent problems we give safety instructions over the phone and dispatch an electrician.
  • We inspect and quote. The electrician checks the problem or the project area, explains the options and gives you a written price.
  • We do the work. Once you approve, the job is done to code with quality materials, and the work area is kept clean.
  • We test and walk you through it. Every circuit is tested and labeled, and we show you what was done before we leave.

Switch and Dimmer Installation: common questions

Can any light be put on a dimmer?

Most can, provided the bulbs or fixtures are marked dimmable and the dimmer is rated for them.

Why is my light switch warm?

Dimmers run slightly warm by design. A standard switch that is hot, or any switch that smells or crackles, should be replaced right away.

Do smart switches need a neutral wire?

Many do. Older Michigan homes often lack one at the switch, and we can add it or use a model that does not need it.

Can you add a second switch for a stairway light?

Yes. That is three-way switching and we install it regularly.
