The right lighting changes how your whole home feels

Good lighting is more than adding fixtures. It's spacing recessed lights evenly, choosing the right color temperature, putting light where you actually work and adding dimmers so every room works day and night.

With more than 20 years of residential experience, including high-end homes, Sebastian plans the layout with you, protects your floors and furniture, and leaves perfectly aligned fixtures and a clean house behind.

Lighting we install

What makes a SMUP lighting job different

01

A layout plan before we cut

We mark every light with you first, so spacing and alignment look intentional, not random.

02

Clean installation, minimal patching

Careful cutting, dust control and floor protection. Your home stays clean while we work.

03

The right LEDs and dimmers

Compatible dimmers and LED fixtures to avoid flicker and buzzing, with a color temperature that fits each room.

04

Done to code

Proper boxes, connections and circuits, with a permit when the job requires one.

05

Why hire a licensed C-10 electrician

In California, electrical work over $500 (labor + materials), and any job that needs a permit, requires a CSLB C-10 licensed contractor. SMUP Electrical is licensed (#1155780) and insured, so your insurance and your home's resale value stay protected.

Frequently asked questions

Can you add recessed lights to a room that has none?

Yes. In most homes we can add recessed LED lights through the ceiling with small, clean openings and minimal patching.

What color temperature should I choose?

Warm white (about 2700K–3000K) feels cozy in living areas and bedrooms; a slightly cooler light can work well in kitchens and garages. We'll help you choose.

Can you install a ceiling fan where there was only a light?

Often yes, as long as the ceiling box is rated for a fan. If not, we install a fan-rated box.

Do you install outdoor lighting?

Yes. Patio, landscape, security and motion lighting, with weather-rated fixtures and GFCI protection where required.
