ELECTRICAL LIGHTING FAQS
If you have any questions about lighting repairs, additions, or replacements, please give our friendly specialists a call. Here are some common questions our customers ask.
WHY DO MY LIGHTS FLICKER?
There are several reasons why your lights at home may flicker or have a “candle” effect. This can result from loose connections, worn-out circuit breakers, or faulty light bulbs. Make sure the light is screwed in snugly. The next step is replacing the light bulb; try using a different brand.
If your light continues to flicker, it’s probably time for our electricians to take a look.
CAN I ADD MORE CEILING LIGHTS TO A ROOM IN MY HOUSE?
Yes! Adding more light fixtures to a room may require additional wiring, but it can almost always be done. An electrician can determine if there is enough amperage in your lighting circuit to support more fixtures or if more power is necessary.
It’s also essential to know what maximum wattage your new and old lights can handle. If the wattage is too much, the bulb will burn out or you may get a short circuit.
CAN I CONVERT MY CEILING LIGHTING TO RECESSED LIGHTS?
This is usually something that can be done, but it’s not the most simple procedure if you lack electrical experience. After turning off the power, your original light fixture and electrical box will need to be removed. A larger hole may need to be cut around the existing wiring connections.
The can fixture (or pot light) is then wired to the circuit and placed in the ceiling. Our electricians at 4-Star can evaluate your ceiling lights and recommend recessed lighting locations and equipment.
WHY ISN’T MY LIGHT TURNING ON?
If a light isn’t turning on at all, there are some initial checks you can complete before calling an electrician.
- Make sure the bulb is screwed in and the filament in the bulb remains intact.
- Make sure the switch is turned ON.
- Make sure your circuit breaker is in the ON position.
If all these things check out and your light still won’t turn on, some expert investigation is needed to determine the issue. Keep the light off, and call 4-Star Electric for some help.

What To Expect With home lighting installation
1. Evaluation
Every installation begins with an evaluation.
Your personal electrician will conduct a thorough assessment of your home’s existing lighting setup, identifying areas with insufficient lighting, outdated fixtures or that can pose potential safety hazards.
Your electrician will also check your home’s electrical system to ensure it can support new lighting installation, checking the capacity circuits and the condition of the wiring.
2. Recommendation
All lighting recommendations are thoroughly explained. Your electrician will provide you with a number of lighting options best suited to your taste, needs and budget.
Your electrician will also consider energy efficiency requirements before providing you with a detailed cost and timeline estimate so you can prepare for installation accordingly. We always provide full pricing before the work begins and you’ll never be surprised by hidden fees.
3. Installation
The work area is prepared by shutting power off to the affected circuits, and by setting down coverings to protect your flooring and furniture from any potential drywall dust or debris.
Your new lighting fixtures will be installed according to manufacturer and industry specifications, which may involve wiring the new fixtures, installing ceiling mounts and even running new wiring, switches and outlets as needed.
Your electrician will then ensure all connections are secure and meet safety standards.
Once your installation or repair work is complete, your electrician will do a complete inspection to ensure quality workmanship. You can have total confidence in our team, we only install the most trusted brands and equipment, and we’re proud to offer industry-leading repair and replacement guarantees, as well as 100% satisfaction guarantees.
