Electrical Updates for Chicago Homes
Lighting and power are what make a remodel feel finished. We add recessed lights, dimmers, outlets, fans and fixtures, and bring in licensed electricians for anything that needs a permit.
Better light, more outlets, cleaner walls
Most Chicago homes are short on outlets and long on bad lighting. Recessed LEDs on dimmers, under-cabinet light, a fan that actually clears the bathroom and outlets where your life happens change how a room feels for a fraction of a remodel.
Work that requires a City of Chicago electrical permit, such as new circuits and panel work, is done by a licensed electrician on our team of trades. We coordinate everything so you deal with one company and one schedule.
- Recessed and under-cabinet lighting
- Outlets, switches, dimmers and USB outlets
- Ceiling fans and bathroom exhaust fans
- New circuits and panel work through licensed electricians

Electrical FAQ
Do you use licensed electricians?
Any work that requires a permit in Chicago is done by a licensed electrician on our team of trades. Simple fixture and device swaps are handled as part of your project.
Can you add recessed lights to an existing ceiling?
Yes, usually without opening the ceiling. Slim LED fixtures fit between joists and the wiring is fished from above or from an existing switch.
Do I need a permit to add outlets?
Adding a circuit or new wiring generally requires a permit in Chicago. Replacing a device in place does not. We tell you which applies before we quote.
Can you do electrical as part of a bathroom or basement project?
That is the most common way we do it. Lighting, fans and circuits are planned with the rest of the remodel so walls are only opened once.
