Light Fixture Replacement
Refresh an existing light with a like-for-like replacement.
A replacement ceiling light, pendant, vanity light, or wall sconce can refresh a room without moving the fixture. We review the existing fitting, replacement model, size and general type, rating, weight, access, and local requirements before confirming the job.
Same-location, same-size and general-type replacements only where the complete job is eligible and no permit is required. New light locations, altered wiring, circuits, replacement electrical boxes, new supports, ceiling-fan conversions, and electrical fault diagnosis are excluded. Every request is subject to small-project eligibility, including total labor and materials, permit requirements, site conditions, and whether a specialty license is required.

Questions homeowners ask
Light Fixture Replacement FAQ
Can I supply the replacement light?
Yes. Send its product link, dimensions, weight, and a photo of the existing fixture so compatibility and access can be reviewed.
Can you add a light or replace a light with a ceiling fan?
This service covers eligible existing-light replacements only. A new location, fan conversion, wiring change, or support alteration needs a separately qualified provider.
Does every like-for-like replacement qualify?
No. We review the complete job and local requirements before scheduling. We are not CSLB-licensed and only accept eligible minor work requiring no permit, with no employee or helper labor, and a total under $1,000 including labor, materials, and all other project costs. Work cannot be part of a larger project or divided to fit these limits.
How is small-project eligibility confirmed?
We review the complete request, labor and materials, permit needs, site conditions, and specialty-trade requirements before scheduling and again if conditions change on site.
