Will better lighting really prevent falls?
Yes, studies show that improved lighting can reduce falls by up to 60% in seniors. Poor lighting is a major contributor to trips and falls, especially at night. Motion-activated lights ensure you never enter a dark room, and task lighting eliminates shadows that hide obstacles.
How long does lighting installation take?
Simple fixture replacements take 1-2 hours. Under-cabinet lighting typically takes a day. Stair lighting installation requires 1-2 days. Whole-home lighting upgrades may take 2-3 days. Your contractor will provide a specific timeline during the free assessment.
Do I need an electrician?
Yes, most lighting modifications require a licensed electrician, especially for new wiring, switches, or electrical panel work. All contractors in our network are properly licensed and will handle all electrical work safely and to code.
Are LED lights better for seniors?
Yes, LED lights are ideal for seniors. They provide bright, clear illumination that's easier on aging eyes. They use less energy, last longer (10+ years), and don't generate heat like old incandescent bulbs. LEDs also work well with dimmer switches for adjustable brightness.
