Install Lighting That Works and Looks Right

Fixture Installation and Replacement in Queen Creek, Arizona

You purchase a new chandelier or ceiling fan and realize the existing electrical box cannot support its weight, or the wiring does not match the connections required by the fixture. Installing and replacing lighting fixtures involves more than connecting wires and screwing in bulbs, and incorrect installation can cause flickering lights, loose fixtures, or electrical hazards. Southern Circuit Co. installs and replaces fixtures throughout homes in Queen Creek, ensuring each one is supported properly and wired to operate safely.

We inspect the existing electrical box and wiring before installing a new fixture, and we replace boxes that are not rated for the fixture's weight or mounting requirements. Ceiling fans require braced boxes to prevent wobbling and structural stress, and chandeliers need secure mounting to avoid falls. We connect the fixture's wiring to your home's electrical system, verify that switches control the fixture correctly, and test all functions including dimmers, pull chains, and remote controls. The work ensures that fixtures remain securely mounted and operate as intended.

How We Mount and Wire Each Fixture

We turn off power to the circuit and remove the old fixture, then inspect the electrical box and ceiling or wall structure to confirm it can support the new fixture. If the box is not rated for the fixture's weight, we install a braced or heavy-duty box designed for the specific application. Once the box is secure, we connect the fixture's wiring to the circuit, matching hot, neutral, and ground wires correctly and securing all connections with wire nuts and electrical tape.

After installation, you will notice that the fixture stays firmly in place, operates smoothly when switched on or dimmed, and provides the lighting or airflow you expect. Ceiling fans spin without wobbling, and chandeliers hang level and remain secure even in homes with high ceilings.

We test the fixture before leaving to confirm all functions work correctly, and we adjust height or positioning if needed. Installation does not include patching or painting drywall around the fixture, and we recommend contacting a painter or drywall contractor if cosmetic repairs are needed after removal of the old fixture.

It Helps to Know What to Expect

Homeowners often ask about box requirements, compatibility with existing wiring, and installation time before scheduling the work.

What type of electrical box is required for a ceiling fan?
Ceiling fans require a braced electrical box rated to support at least fifty pounds of dynamic load. We inspect the existing box and install a fan-rated box if the current one is not suitable.
Can you install a dimmer switch with the new fixture?
Yes, we install dimmer switches that are compatible with your fixture type, including LED-compatible dimmers if you are using LED bulbs. We ensure the switch operates smoothly and does not cause flickering.
How long does it take to replace a light fixture?
Most fixture replacements take thirty minutes to one hour per fixture, depending on the complexity of the mounting and wiring. Installation of ceiling fans or heavy chandeliers may take longer if the electrical box needs to be upgraded.
What if my new fixture has different wiring than the old one?
We adapt the wiring as needed to match the new fixture's requirements, including adding or modifying ground connections and installing additional wire if the fixture requires separate control for lights and fans.
Can you install fixtures on vaulted ceilings?
Yes, we install fixtures on vaulted and high ceilings using extension ladders and appropriate mounting hardware. We adjust the fixture's height and ensure it is securely anchored to the structure above the ceiling.
