Lighting Installation Services
Green Street Electric provides professional lighting installation for homeowners throughout Richmond, Chesterfield, Henrico, Hanover, and surrounding Central Virginia areas. Whether you are upgrading your home, renovating a space, or simply replacing outdated fixtures, we deliver clean, safe, and code-compliant lighting installations built to last.

Recessed Lighting Installation

Recessed lighting is one of the best ways to modernize a home. We install airtight, energy-efficient, canless recessed lights that produce clean, even lighting with very little drywall disturbance.
Our recessed lighting installations include:

  • Clean, flush-mounted canless LED fixtures
  • Minimal cutting and minimal patching
  • Safe wiring and proper junction box placement
  • Even spacing and balanced lighting layouts
  • Compatible dimmers when desired

In many homes, we run a new dedicated lighting circuit to avoid overloads. In other cases, if the existing circuit is safe and within capacity, we may use what’s available. Every job is evaluated with safety and long-term performance in mind.

Pendant Lighting Installation

Pendant lights offer style, height, and focus — perfect for kitchens, islands, dining areas, and entryways.
We handle pendant installations for:

  • Kitchen islands
  • Dining rooms
  • Bars and peninsulas
  • Staircase lighting
  • Focal points in living spaces

Whether you are adding brand-new pendant locations or replacing old fixtures, we ensure:

  • Proper support and secure mounting
  • Correct height and spacing
  • Clean wiring and switch compatibility
  • A finished look with minimal disturbance

Pendant lighting requires attention to detail — we treat every fixture as a feature piece of your home.

Dimmer Switches & Lighting Controls

Dimmers are one of the simplest upgrades that dramatically improve comfort and energy use. We install:

  • LED-compatible dimmers
  • Three-way dimmers
  • Smart dimmers with app control
  • Lutron, Leviton, and other high-quality devices

Before installation, we check fixture compatibility to prevent flickering or buzzing — a common issue with mismatched LEDs and older dimmers.

New Lighting Circuits & Wiring

Not every lighting installation can safely run on an existing circuit. When needed, we install:

  • New dedicated lighting circuits
  • New switch legs
  • New wall switches
  • Wiring for multi-location controls
  • Smart-home compatible wiring

We evaluate your panel, calculate safe loading, and choose the best solution for your home.

Old-Work & Remodeling-Friendly Installations

Most lighting projects require installing fixtures in finished ceilings or existing drywall. We specialize in old-work lighting, which means:

  • Minimal drywall cutting
  • Clean routing
  • Careful access points
  • Code-compliant wiring
  • Respect for your home and your time

Whether your home is newer or decades old, we install lighting cleanly and safely.
