Recessed Lighting Installation in Velarde, NM

Recessed lighting services

Layout matters more than the number of lights. We space fixtures according to ceiling height and what the room is used for, keep them off the walls enough to avoid harsh scallops, and put them on dimmers. In Velarde homes with insulated attics we use fixtures rated for contact with insulation.

• Slim canless LED fixtures
• Insulation-contact and airtight rated housings
• Converting old cans to LED

Why Velarde properties call a local electrician

In the high country around Velarde, electrical systems have to handle freezing winters, summer thunderstorms, and long rural service runs. Thick adobe walls and historic construction make wiring work slower and call for careful planning.

Depending on your address, power in Rio Arriba County typically comes from Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative, Kit Carson Electric Cooperative, or Northern Rio Arriba Electric Cooperative. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.
