Columbus, OH Light Fixture Installation by Sears Handyman

Your home's interior lighting make the indoors a pleasant and inviting place to spend time. Sometimes, though, homeowners realize that they would like more lighting in certain areas of their home. Perhaps you've rearranged your furniture and noticed that you need more lighting in a certain area of a room, or you may need more lighting in your garage or basement, which are typically dark spaces.

Installing new light fixtures involves turning off power to the right areas of your home, mounting the fixture, and making sure that the wiring is properly connected. Some homeowners struggle with correctly wiring new lighting fixtures or using a ladder to access their ceiling.

When you need light fixtures installed or repaired, you can give Sears Handyman Services a call to schedule servicing. Our technicians know how to install lighting safely and effectively, so you won't have to climb ladders and tamper with electrical wiring.

At times, you might experience a light fixture that stops working for no observable reason. You may have changed the bulb and flipped your circuit breaker but to no avail.

Our staff can remove and examine the fixture to locate the cause of the problem. If our technician determines that your lighting fixture is broken, he can install a new one.

In recent years, LED ("light-emitting diode") lighting has become extremely popular for homes, businesses, and artistic installations. LED lights are also used in televisions, clocks, traffic lights, phone keypads, and several other common devices. Hundreds of tiny lightbulbs form the basis of LED lighting displays, and because these lightbulbs don't have a filament, they won't burn out or risk getting very hot. LEDs are both more durable and more efficient than conventional lights(1).

For these and other reasons, LED lights have gained a wide popularity in recent years. With LED lighting, decorative lighting possibilities are practically endless. Many homeowners use LED lights in several areas of the home, both inside and out.

Some LED light uses include:
- Backlighting for entertainment centers
- Hallway and doorway lighting
- Lighting for bathroom shelves
- Dresser lighting
- Bathroom vanity lighting
- Stairway lighting
- Floor lighting
- Deck lighting
- Fence lighting
- Garage lighting
- Patio lighting
- Pool lighting
- Workspace lighting

LED lights can be installed in practically any location and programmed to emit colors that homeowners prefer. Basically, the only limit is your imagination.

If you know what lighting design you'd like but need help with LED installation, give a Sears Handyman a call today to discuss installation options. Our technician will work with you to transform your home lighting arrangement to give your home an updated, modern look with LED lights.
