Lighting plans
A kitchen is lit three ways, and each needs a place in the plan.
We draw the ceiling lights, the light under the cabinets and the pendants over the island at the same time as the layout, so the wiring goes in before the walls close. Idaho-licensed electricians do the electrical work, and the estimate names them.
What's included
Recessed and surface ceiling lights
Under-cabinet light and switching
Pendants over islands and peninsulas
Dimmers, and which lights share a switch
Outlets at counter height
Cost
What changes the cost
No figure here, because the room sets it. These are the things that move it.
Number of fixtures
Each one needs a box, a wire and a switch.
New circuits
A kitchen with new appliances may need more than the old panel gives.
Ceiling type
Finished ceilings are patched after the work.
Fixture choice
Choose them in the worksheet so they're priced.

Questions about this work
Do you do electrical work yourselves?
Idaho-licensed electricians do it, and the estimate says who. We plan it and schedule it.
Can I add light without opening the ceiling?
Sometimes, with surface fixtures or under-cabinet strips. We say which in the design meeting.
