Lighting Installation in East Moline, IL

Most East Moline lighting calls are not really about the fixture. They are about a dining room ceiling with no box in it at all, a switch leg that wants to end up on the far wall, or a sloped ceiling that has to hold a fan without wobbling. We do the cutting, the fishing, the box, the mounting and the trim, and leave the ceiling ready for paint.

What this means in East Moline

Older East Moline homes hand you plaster and lath over irregular joists, which changes how a job runs. Fishing a switch leg through that takes patience rather than force, and a fan needs a fan-rated box fastened to structure, not to the lath. Where a ceiling has blown-in insulation above it, recessed cans have to be rated for insulation contact or they will cycle on their thermals all evening.

What's included

Work this covers

  • Recessed cans and wafer lights laid out so the beams land where you use the room
  • Ceiling fans, including sloped ceilings and boxes rated for the weight and the motion
  • Dining and stair fixtures, chandeliers and anything heavy enough to need blocking
  • Under-cabinet and closet lighting on switching of its own
  • Dimmers matched to the driver in the lamp, so nothing flickers or buzzes
  • Three-way and four-way switching added to a room that only has one switch

Answers

Lighting Installation in East Moline: questions

Can you add a ceiling light to an East Moline room that has never had one?

Yes, and it is a large part of what we do here. We fish the switch leg, set a proper box and patch behind ourselves rather than leaving the drywall work to you.

Will the plaster be made good after lighting work in an East Moline house?

We cut as little as the route allows and patch the openings we make. Plaster is patched flush and left ready for your paint or texture.

Can a ceiling fan go where an East Moline light fixture is now?

Only with a fan-rated box fixed to structure. A standard lighting box will not carry the moving load, so we replace it as part of the install.
