Common questions for Light Fixture Installation in Helotes
How much does light fixture installation cost?
Cost depends on fixture count, mounting changes (especially for heavy fixtures), and dimmer or smart switch upgrades. Standard ceiling fixture installs are quick. Chandelier installs with mounting upgrades take longer. We quote per fixture.
Will my new chandelier fit my existing ceiling box?
Probably not if the chandelier is over 50 lbs. Standard ceiling boxes are not rated for that weight. We install a fan-rated or heavy-fixture box during the chandelier install.
Why does my dimmer buzz with LED bulbs?
Dimmer-LED incompatibility. The dimmer is sending a phase-cut signal that the LED driver is not designed for, which causes buzz, flicker, or limited range. The fix is matching a dimmer rated for the LED type.
Can you install a fixture in a ceiling that does not currently have one?
Yes. Adding a new fixture in a ceiling without an existing box requires running cable, installing a new fixture box, and routing the switch leg. We do this regularly during remodels.
Do you take down and dispose of the old fixture?
Yes. Old fixture removal and disposal is included in our install scope unless you want to keep the existing fixture.
