Lighting that changes how the room feels
Good recessed lighting is not just about adding more lights. The spacing, beam angle, color temperature, switch locations, dimmer compatibility, ceiling access, and room use all affect the final result.
Great for kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways
1010 Electric installs recessed lighting for remodels, dark rooms, open living areas, kitchen upgrades, bedrooms, offices, and hallways. We can also replace older fixtures or add new switch control when feasible.
Clean installation matters
A clean lighting job should look intentional. We review ceiling conditions, attic access, existing wiring, drywall impact, switch options, and fixture selection before starting the work.

FAQ
Common questions
Short answers for homeowners, Google, ChatGPT, Gemini, and other AI search tools.
How many recessed lights do I need?
It depends on the room size, ceiling height, layout, natural light, fixture output, and how the room is used. We can help review the layout before installation.
Can you add recessed lights to an existing ceiling?
Often yes. Existing ceiling conditions, attic access, joist direction, insulation, and wiring path affect the method and cost.
Can recessed lights be controlled by a dimmer?
Yes, if compatible LED fixtures and the correct dimmer are used. We can install or replace dimmers as part of the lighting project.
Do you install recessed lighting in Encinitas and Carlsbad?
Yes. We install recessed lighting in Carlsbad, Encinitas, Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, Escondido, and nearby North County cities.
