Install Recessed Lights for a Simple, Inexpensive Update

Are you looking to update your home? While there are possible things to add to the list, such as installing new cabinets or counter tops, putting in hardwood floors, painting the walls with a fresh coat of paint, or purchasing some new furniture to freshen up your look, one of the easiest and most affordable ways to update your home is to have a Littleton electrician install recessed lights. Before you begin the installation process, here are a few things you should consider.

Have a Plan

Take a moment to think about where you want the recessed lights. Why do you want them there? There are things to keep in mind as you install your lights. For example, when installing recessed lights in the kitchen, you should consider more focused lighting, while in a larger living area, you should consider installing lights that cast a wider light. If you have any questions about lighting specific to an area in your home, don’t hesitate to give us call.

Electrical Considerations

There are electrical considerations you need to keep in mind as you install your recessed lighting. Where will your lighting be installed? Will you need to adjust the wiring? Are you using the proper wiring? Is your circuitry sufficient for the amount of lighting you want to install? Because there are many electrical considerations you need to keep in mind, it is wise to consult with an electrician who has experience with electrical codes and safety.

Economy

Thanks to advances in technology, there are many new LED lights available. Many of them provide a great way to save money on energy. Check out the many options available for recessed lighting, and see if you can save money on your energy bill by installing new, updated lights.

I sent out a request to a few companies on Yelp and Electric Doctor had the quickest availability. Their prices were in line with the other companies and they were in and out in less than an hour! The electrician that came was super knowledgeable and friendly. Will be contacting them again in the future!

We needed some troubleshooting done on 4 indoor GFCI outlets, a weatherproof outdoor outlet installed, and a front porch light installed. Jim made scheduling the job easy. The electrician showed up on time and did a great job. Mike gave a thorough explanation of what he found and got the job done quickly. Electric Doctor does good work at a fair price.

The Electric Doctor team was very easy to work with. Their quote was accurate, their service was professional, and their pricing was fair. Above all, their entire team are excellent communicators. They told my wife and I exactly what was going to happen and when. They even drew marks on each ceiling where holes would be cut and gave us multiple opportunities to provide our feedback for adjustments. Tyler specifically made us feel confident and reassured about this entire project over the 2 days they were in our home. Thank you, Tyler. I absolutely recommend Electric Doctor to family and friends for lighting installations, repairs and more.

Electric Doctor is THE BEST! I needed an electrician on extremely short notice to install some light fixtures before my house goes on the market, and they had someone here within two hours! The electrician was so nice, and did great work, and I could not be happier. Call Electric Doctor for your electrical needs!

Moved into a 1915 home with a super outdated electric panel. They upgraded to a new panel with twice as many switched with ease. Everyone I worked with was super informative and helpful. The installation was quick and painless and looks beautiful! Not to mention, they offered the best price and warranty from every other quote I received. Would recommend to anyone looking for a panel upgrade!

Jimmy is one of the kindest human beings I have ever met. I was in panic mode because my electrical outlets outside the house and in the garage were not working (all the food in my freezer was defrosted!). I told Jimmy I had checked all the GFI's in the house so that wasn't the problem. Jimmy said "there are always more hiding" and he offered to face time me. He had me show him around the garage. Sure enough...I was panning the wall and Jimmy pointed out an outlet that was hiding. I had never seen that outlet before in all the time I have lived here. Jimmy did this for me without asking for anything! What a great person to help a total stranger out and not expect anything in return!!!! Should I ever need an Electrician in the future...I am definitely going to call the Electric Doctor and ask for Jimmy!!!! Thank you Jimmy!!!!!!!!!

I quoted out several companies to do a panel upgrade on my house and wire electricity to a newly built detached garage. Jimmie with Electric Doctor was the first to suggest an overhead-to-overhead setup to avoid running back additional wires from the house to the garage. He answered all the questions I had about the process over the phone, he and the team completed all the work I requested and more. Always on time and worked with Xcel and the city on all communication and permit requirements. I would definitely recommend them for any panel upgrades or electrical work around the house.

Frequently Asked Questions

When do I need to replace my electrical panel?

Panels should be evaluated for replacement or upgrades after 30 years of use. Also, if a panel is undersized, overloaded, improperly located, or an oudated brand such as Federal Pacific or Zinsco, it should be replaced.

What do I do if I smell electrical burning or had an outlet fire?

When it doubt, turn off the circuit at the breaker. For fridges and freezers you can always get a good extension cord and temporarily plug it in to a working outlet to keep your food cold. Call us to come repair the outlet and check the connections to get things back in safe, working order.

What form of payment do you accept? Do you offer terms?

We accept cash, checks, and credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express). For our recurring customers and national clients, we do offer Net 30 payment terms.

Do you offer discounts?

Absolutely! We believe in real value discounts. We offer seasonal discounts on electrical service upgrades, as well as discounts for repeat customers, seniors, teachers, and military veterans. If you get a price that doesn't seem to match up? Contact us, we're happy to talk to you.

Are the photos you use on your website and Instagram yours?

Yes! All the install and repair photos are our jobs. Some are before shots, most are after.

Do you offer free estimates?

100% free. We make estimates easy. We can do estimates via text, email, website submission, or we can schedule a free on-site visit.

Where are you located & what areas do you service?

We are centrally located in Englewood near Santa Fe and Oxford. We service the entire Denver Metro Area from Golden to Aurora and Castle Rock to Broomfield.

My home has aluminum wiring, is that bad?

Single strand aluminum is a softer metal than copper and newer switches and outlets are generally rated for copper connections only. We want to make sure the connection points for the wiring are well maintained. We pigtail outlets, switches, and fixtures with UL Listed Alumiconn connectors and maintenance or replace your panel. Aluminum for dryers and ranges can be okay but generally are only 3-wires instead of newer 4-wires. If you are removing drywall for a remodel or have new appliances installed, that's when we replace the wiring.

Why are electricians priced so differently for the same job?

There are a lot of reasons why you can get a wide variety of pricing. Experience, as well as patience means different electricians see the installation in different ways. Quality, warranty, commission based sales, etc can all be part of the pricing. We use our own standard price menu to give a consistent price to all our customers and always perform a quality installation and back it with our one or three year warranty.
