Layout matters more than the number of lights. We space fixtures according to ceiling height and what the room is used for, keep them off the walls enough to avoid harsh scallops, and put them on dimmers. In New Mexico homes with insulated attics we use fixtures rated for contact with insulation.

  • Slim canless LED fixtures
  • Insulation-contact and airtight rated housings
  • Converting old cans to LED
  • Dimmers and separate lighting zones

Recessed Lighting Installation FAQs

How many recessed lights do I need?

A common rule is to space them at about half the ceiling height, so four feet apart for an eight-foot ceiling, then adjust for the room's use. We lay it out with you before cutting.

Can recessed lights go in a ceiling without attic access?

Usually yes. Slim LED fixtures need very little depth, and we can fish cable between openings.

Do recessed lights raise my electric bill?

LED recessed lights use a fraction of the power of old incandescent cans. Converting usually lowers the bill.
