LIGHTING UPGRADE
OVERVIEW
If you are looking to update antiquated light fixtures to LED or if your existing light fixtures aren't meeting your needs, our lighting upgrade service enables you to improve your lighting with minimal disruption.
Lighting upgrades can be as simple as replacing incandescent or halogen light bulbs with high-quality, long lasting LED lighting, upgrading linear lighting, or adding fixtures in key locations to enhance the space.
Our goal is to seamlessly weave the new lighting into the overall design based on the architectural aesthetic, the function of the space, and your specific lighting preferences.

OUR PROCESS
01. ENGAGEMENT
Our process begins with an on-site consultation to review your existing lighting, understand how you use the space, and identify lighting upgrade opportunities to improve both the function and overall atmosphere of your home.
Once the scope of work is confirmed, we’ll send you a detailed proposal outlining our services throughout the project as well as a design fee estimate.
02. DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
Once we receive the signed proposal, we will develop the lighting plan, assemble fixture specifications, and run photometric calculations (as needed).
We will then meet with you to review the lighting plan and fixture specifications in detail, making adjustments as needed.
03. CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTATION
When the lighting plan and fixture specifications are confirmed, we will create a fully detailed and dimensioned lighting package which will include a lighting plan, fixture specification schedule, fixture specification sheets, and a lighting load schedule for the electrician.
Projects with smaller scopes may require less documentation.
04. PROCUREMENT
Typically, we will procure the light fixtures; however, depending on the size of the project, it may be easier for the electrician to procure the fixtures.
05. ON-SITE COORDINATION
We will be available to answer any questions that arise during installation and visit the site, as needed.
06. PROJECT CLOSE OUT
At the end of the project, we will schedule a meeting with the electrician on site to ensure all fixtures are aimed per the design intent.
