How much does lighting system design and installation cost in Brooklyn?
Lighting installation costs in Brooklyn typically range from $300 to $2,000 depending on the scope of work. Simple fixture replacements start around $150 per fixture, while complete room lighting systems with multiple fixtures, switches, and dimmer controls cost more.

We provide detailed quotes after assessing your specific needs, so you know exactly what you’re paying for before work begins. No hidden fees or surprise charges.
Do older Bensonhurst homes need electrical upgrades for new lighting?
Many older Brooklyn homes do need some electrical work to safely support modern lighting systems. Homes built before 1950 often have outdated wiring, insufficient panel capacity, or grounding issues that need addressing.
During the initial assessment, we check your electrical panel, inspect existing wiring, and test circuits to determine what upgrades are needed. Sometimes it’s as simple as adding a new circuit. Other times, panel upgrades or rewiring sections of the home are necessary for safety.
We’ll explain exactly what work is needed and why, so you can make informed decisions about your home’s electrical safety. All work meets current NYC electrical codes and passes inspection.
What types of lighting work best for different rooms?
Different rooms need different lighting approaches for maximum functionality and comfort. Kitchens benefit from layered lighting with under-cabinet task lighting for food prep, pendant lights over islands, and recessed lighting for general illumination.
Living rooms work best with a combination of ambient lighting from ceiling fixtures or recessed lights, plus accent lighting from wall sconces or table lamps to create atmosphere. Bedrooms need softer lighting with bedside reading lights and dimmable overhead fixtures.
Bathrooms require moisture-rated fixtures with good task lighting around mirrors for grooming, plus ambient lighting for safety. We design each room’s lighting based on how you actually use the space, not just what looks good.
How long does a complete lighting system installation take?
Installation time depends on the scope of work and your home’s electrical condition. Simple fixture replacements in a single room typically take 2-4 hours. Complete home lighting systems with multiple rooms usually take 1-3 days.
Homes needing electrical upgrades take longer because panel work and rewiring require additional time for safety and code compliance. We provide realistic timelines during the planning phase so you can prepare accordingly.
We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine, protecting your furniture and cleaning up thoroughly each day. Most homeowners are surprised how quickly the transformation happens once installation begins.
Do you install smart lighting and home automation systems?
Yes, we install complete smart lighting systems that integrate with popular home automation platforms. This includes smart switches, dimmers, and fixtures you can control from your phone or voice commands.
Smart lighting is especially valuable for security, energy savings, and convenience. You can program lights to turn on automatically at sunset, dim gradually for bedtime, or flash when the doorbell rings. Some systems learn your routines and adjust automatically.
We’ll recommend smart lighting options that fit your lifestyle and budget, from simple smart switches to comprehensive whole-home automation. All smart devices are properly wired and configured for reliable operation.
What safety certifications and insurance do you carry?
Electrified is fully licensed and insured for all electrical work in New York City. We carry comprehensive liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage to protect both our team and your property during installation.
All work is performed by licensed electricians who stay current with NYC electrical codes and safety requirements. We pull proper permits when required and ensure all installations pass city inspections.
Our licensing and insurance information is available upon request, and we’re happy to provide certificates of insurance to your homeowner’s insurance company if needed. Professional electrical work isn’t worth the risk of using unlicensed contractors.
