A brighter, finished room
Light fixture installation using an existing connection
Replacing a dated ceiling light, pendant, or appropriately sized chandelier can change the feel of a room without changing its layout. The existing box must be sound and rated for the fixture.
What’s included
Common fixture updates
- Flush and semi-flush ceiling light replacement
- Pendant light installation at an existing ceiling location
- Appropriately sized chandelier replacement
- Fixture canopy, mounting plate, and bulb setup
- Basic operation check with the existing wall control
Know what to look for
Plan before installation when
- The new fixture is significantly heavier than the old one
- The ceiling box is loose, recessed, or visibly damaged
- The new light requires a different dimmer or control
- The fixture hangs over furniture, a table, or a walkway
How it works
Clear scope. Precise work. No guesswork.
- 01
Compare the replacement fixture with the existing location.
- 02
Confirm weight, box support, height, and control compatibility.
- 03
Shut off power and install the supplied mounting hardware.
- 04
Level the fixture, fit bulbs, and test basic operation.
Keep planning

Can you move a light to a new ceiling location?
No. This service uses an existing suitable electrical connection and does not include new wiring or circuits.
Can you hang a chandelier?
Appropriately sized chandeliers may be installed when the existing box, support, access, and fixture instructions are suitable.
Should I assemble the fixture first?
Keep all parts and instructions together. Some fixtures are best partially assembled during installation.
What about very high ceilings?
Share the ceiling height and a room photo. Access requirements affect whether the project is an appropriate fit.
