Dimmers

Signs it's time

• LEDs flickering or buzzing on an old dimmer
• Lights too bright after dinner
• Two switches, one light, no dimmer
• You'd like scenes and schedules

How the job goes

1. Match dimmer to bulb type and load
2. Swap the switch, set the low-end trim
3. Program smart dimmers together
4. Test each bulb on the circuit

What moves the price

• Number of fixtures, devices or spots
• Power nearby, or a new circuit
• Ceilings, walls, attic access, patching
• Your fixtures or ours
• Permits: usually for new circuits, usually not for straight swaps

Permits for this work

Straight swaps usually need no permit. New circuits and outdoor, hot tub, pool, heat pump or range wiring usually do. The fee shows on your quote.
