Service
Lighting Installations
New lighting is one of the highest-impact, lowest-cost upgrades you can make. We help you plan it, install it cleanly, and switch it the way you actually want to use it.
What this service includes
- Recessed (can) light installation
- Pendant and chandelier hanging
- Under-cabinet and toe-kick lighting
- LED retrofits and dimming
- Smart switches and scenes
- Track and accent lighting
- Closet and pantry lighting
- Bathroom vanity lighting
Who it's for
- Kitchen and bath remodels
- Dark hallways, basements and stairwells
- Workshops, garages and home offices
- Anyone tired of harsh, flat ceiling lighting
Why it matters
Good lighting changes how a room feels and functions. Bad switching frustrates everyone who lives there. We treat lighting as a design problem, not just a wiring problem.
How it works
- 1. Walk the rooms, talk through how you use them.
- 2. Layout, fixture and switch plan plus written quote.
- 3. Clean install, dimming setup and walk-through.
Lighting design as part of the install
Good interior lighting is layered: ambient lighting to fill the room, task lighting where you actually do things (counters, desk, vanity), and accent lighting to give the space depth. We help you choose color temperature (warm 2700K to neutral 3500K), beam spread and dimming so the room feels right at every time of day.
Retrofits without ripping up ceilings
Most recessed lighting upgrades can be done from below using shallow new-construction or remodel cans — no attic access, no drywall demolition. We patch sparingly, lay out lights symmetrically, and dim everything so you're not stuck at full-blast.
Common questions
Can you add recessed lights without a finished attic?
Yes. Most rooms can be done with remodel-style cans installed from below, with minimal patching. We'll show you the layout before we cut anything.
Do you install dimmers and smart switches?
Absolutely — Lutron Caséta, Leviton Decora Smart and similar systems are some of our favorites. We'll match the dimmer to your LED drivers so nothing flickers or hums.

The Clear Electric approach
More than a quote — a plan you can actually follow.
Most homeowners and business owners we meet have been burned before — a vague verbal price, a crew that disappears mid-job, or a "finished" install that fails inspection. Our lighting installations process is built to be the opposite of that: everything in writing, every step explained, and a single electrician you can call from the first phone conversation through the final walkthrough.
Because we're a local Susquehanna Valley company, we're not routing you through a call center or subbing your job out to whoever is cheapest that week. The person who quotes your lighting installations project is on site, accountable for the work, and lives in the same community. If something needs a follow-up in six months, we pick up the phone.
We take lighting installations work seriously because electrical is one of the few trades where doing it "mostly right" isn't good enough. Loose neutrals, undersized conductors, missing bonding, or an ungrounded circuit can sit hidden in a wall for years — until it starts a fire or fries a $3,000 appliance. Every job we finish is one we'd be comfortable handing off to any inspector in the state.

Signs it's time to call
Don't wait for the sparks.
If any of these sound familiar, it's worth a conversation before it becomes an emergency:
- Breakers that trip repeatedly — even on lighter loads
- Outlets or switch plates that feel warm to the touch
- Flickering or dimming lights when large appliances kick on
- A burning or plastic smell near a panel, outlet or fixture
- Older two-prong outlets or knob-and-tube wiring still in service
- Extension cords running as permanent wiring
- A panel that hasn't been touched since the house was built
Materials & standards
Quality parts. Nothing swapped behind your back.
We stock and install trusted, contractor-grade brands — the same gear your local inspector expects to see in the panel. If a product is on backorder or we're recommending an upgrade, we tell you before it goes in.
What to expect
From first call to final walkthrough.
Here's exactly how a typical lighting installations project moves — no surprises, no vague timelines.
Call or request online
Tell us what's going on. We'll ask a few sizing questions and book a site visit or estimate.
Site visit & written quote
We come out, look at the actual conditions, and put a real number on paper — not a guess.
Scheduled install
Materials pre-staged, permits pulled, arrival window confirmed the day before.
Test, label & walkthrough
We test every circuit, label the panel, walk you through the work and clean up before we leave.
Safety & code
Built to current NEC — and the way we'd wire our own house.
Every lighting installations job follows the current National Electrical Code plus any Pennsylvania and local amendments. That means correct grounding and bonding, arc-fault and ground-fault protection where required, properly sized conductors, torqued lugs, and clean, labeled panelwork you can actually work on later.
- AFCI/GFCI protection where code requires
- Properly torqued lugs and terminations
- Labeled circuits & updated panel schedule
- Correct grounding & bonding path
- Permits and inspection when required
- Copper conductors sized to real load
"They quoted what they charged. Nothing extra tacked on at the end. The panel looks better than the day it was installed."
"Called Tuesday, generator running by Friday. Cleanest install I've seen — and I've had two others quoted."
"Our shop needed rewiring in phases so we could stay open. They worked around us and every deadline hit."
