Reviews That Speak for Themselves
“Brda did an outstanding job installing my new bathroom vanity light and overhead chandelier. They went above and beyond by making a trip to pick up the additional parts needed to ensure the chandelier sat flush with the ceiling. Before installing it, they confirmed the exact hanging height I wanted so it wouldn’t obstruct my mirror, which I really appreciated.”
Dana S.
“The Brda team did an awesome job with installing new track lighting systems, switches and suspended lighting fixtures.”
Silver D.
“Brda was fantastic! They replaced an old ceiling fan/light and installed another one in a room that didn't have one before. They were very professional, friendly, and efficient.”
Lynda N.
“My house flooded and Brda worked so hard to fit me into their schedule as quickly as possible. They were understanding, patient and fast! They are my first call every time moving forward.”

Our Lighting Installation Process
Every lighting project is unique, but this is what our typical approach looks like:
- 1
Consultation, planning and design
Your Brda electrician assesses the project space, goals and budget. They’ll also evaluate your service panel and current load capacity to ensure a safe installation. Then, we map planned locations for fixtures, switches and controls for your review.
- 2
Material selection and energy efficiency considerations
You can provide the fixtures, or we can help you select models to meet your goals. Common equipment to consider includes dimmers, switches and smart controls. Where practical, we suggest ENERGY STAR® and utility incentive options.
- 3
Professional, code-compliant installation
Your licensed electrician completes the lighting installation to code, pulling permits and coordinating the final inspections when required. We clean as we go to keep your space neat.
- 4
Final testing
Your electrician tests every new circuit, switch and control. We’ll review operation and maintenance basics for extending equipment life.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Residential Lighting Services
How long does residential lighting installation take?-+
Most projects take about 6–8 hours to complete. Smaller jobs, like swapping a fixture or adding a few recessed lights, are usually wrapped up the same day. Larger, whole-house or multi-room installations may extend into the next day, depending on the scope.
Do you help with lighting design?-+
Yes. We provide practical design planning—including layout, fixture type and color temperature—to fit your space, style and budget. For custom or architectural designs, we can coordinate with your designer or recommend one.
Can you replace old fixtures with energy-efficient options?-+
Absolutely. Your Brda technician can upgrade you to modern LED fixtures and dimmers, improve drivers and controls, and reuse existing wiring where safe and appropriate. You’ll get better light quality with lower energy use and less maintenance.
Is outdoor lighting installation in St. Louis weather-dependent?-+
Outdoor lighting can be installed throughout the year, but severe weather or unsafe site conditions can occasionally affect scheduling. All fixtures are weather-rated, and our connections are sealed for safe, long-lasting performance.
Do you offer warranties on lighting installations in St. Louis?-+
Yes. We include a 1-year warranty on our workmanship when we provide the fixture. Manufacturer warranties may also apply, and we review all details during your estimate so you know exactly what’s covered.
What affects the cost of residential lighting installation?-+
Pricing depends on the number and type of fixtures, the amount of new wiring involved, and how accessible the install area is. Larger or multi-room projects typically cost more than swapping a single fixture. Every estimate is customized to your home during your consultation.
