Lighting installation does not have a one-size-fits-all price. Your cost depends on the fixture type, location, access, and any electrical upgrades needed. We give upfront pricing after an on-site evaluation in Austin-area homes. We install recessed lights, chandeliers, pendants, under-cabinet, and low-voltage LED landscape lighting, and add dimmers or smart controls. If a new circuit or panel work is required, we handle the necessary permits and inspections.
Quick checks before pricing:
- How many fixtures and where (standard vs. high ceilings)?
- Is new wiring or a new circuit needed?
- Do you want dimmers or smart controls?

Yes, you can, but adding a ceiling light where no wiring exists requires new cable and sometimes a new circuit, which a licensed electrician should do for safety and code. We install indoor and outdoor lighting fixtures safely, add dimmer switches and smart lighting controls, and ensure proper electrical box support for heavy fixtures. In Austin, we pull permits and handle inspections when required. We can pair the job with panel, breaker, or surge upgrades if needed. We serve Austin, Round Rock, and Cedar Park.
Quick checks:
- Identify switch location and attic/crawl access.
- Confirm fixture weight and box rating.
- Note any smart control needs.

Many LED upgrades are simple bulb swaps you can do yourself. If you’re replacing a fixture, adding dimmers or smart controls, or doing an LED retrofit, hire a licensed electrician. We install indoor and outdoor lighting safely, ensure proper electrical box support for heavy fixtures, and complete LED upgrades. For installations that require it in Austin, we pull permits and pass inspections. We serve Austin, Round Rock, and nearby communities.
- Upgrading to dimmers? Use LED-rated controls.
- Replacing heavy fixtures like chandeliers? Verify the box is properly supported.
- Need new wiring, breakers, or panel work? Schedule an electrician.
