"Timothy replaced a chandelier in our dining room and replaced a different light fixture with a ceiling fan. He also fixed an outdoor outlet that was not working correctly. He was professional, responsive and did fabulous work! I HIGHLY recommend University Electric, Inc.!"

"Dyle Westman did a neat and competent job. He worked well with me as unexpected complications arose in our older home. His quote for an uncomplicated TV cable run was greater than the estimate for the 5 hours of electrical work which surprised me even after he explained it; we agreed to cut it out of the contract. Overall the cost of the job, which I thought was a little high, was outweighed by quality and timeliness. This automated Web assessment tool shows the name Joe McCauley whom I am not able to rate."

"Service was quick and great, will definitely recommend Nordeast Electric to friends and relatives. Would have been five stars but he was around 20 minutes late (which could be understandable because of traffic, weather, etc) and it would have been nice if he wore large boots/golashes over his shoes that can be taken off at the door so that snow and slush wouldn't be tracked into the house."

"Mike Mueller of Randy's Electric did an excellent job of replacing two 1990's exterior lights with modern lights I had purchased on my own. The job was completed quickly and and as always, Mike was pleasant and answered all my questions including about a different electrical job I'll be hiring him to complete in the future. I highly recommend hiring Randy's Electric."

"My electrician Travis was amazing to work with. He didn’t mind me asking questions. He took his time installing my outlet so that I could use my dryer. I highly recommend Robinhood Electric. I will utilize again."

In some states and municipalities, licensed and registered handypersons can change a light fixture and do minor electrical work. However, you should check with your state and local licensing boards before hiring a local handyperson. In most cases, it’s safer and more practical to hire an electrician for this job. It may cost more, but hiring a licensed electrician means they’ll get the work done to code.
Special light fixtures, known as damp-rated light fixtures, are recommended in bathrooms, particularly if they're near damp areas like showers and over the bathtub. However, in most locations, they’re not a strict requirement. For safety and longevity, damp-rated fixtures are a better choice. If you work with a lighting contractor in your area, they may be able to recommend the right kinds of fixtures for your space.
Yes, it’s possible to run a second light fixture to a switch, meaning the light switch would control more than one light fixture. Several factors can impact whether it’s possible and how much it will cost. In many cases, it may be easier and more affordable for the contractor to install independent light switches. Talk to your electrician about your idea to get their feedback.
