Can I install a ceiling light myself without existing wiring?

You can replace an existing fixture yourself, but installing a new ceiling light where no wiring exists is not a DIY task. It requires running new wiring and making code-compliant connections, which a licensed electrician should handle. Castle Electric designs the plan, installs wiring and fixtures, tests everything, and cleans up. We offer LED and smart lighting options, plus recessed, pendant, and chandelier installs. We serve Newton, Quincy, and nearby.

Quick checks:

• Choose fixture style and location.
• Decide on dimming or smart controls.
• Confirm basic ceiling/attic access for wiring.
