The Right Light Makes Every Space Better

Lighting does more than brighten a room. It can make a kitchen easier to work in, a living space feel more welcoming, and an entryway safer after dark. Dunpy Electric installs recessed lights, fixtures, pendants, under-cabinet lighting, dimmers, and exterior lighting for homeowners throughout the Greater Philadelphia region.We take the time to understand the space, explain the options clearly, and complete the wiring and installation with attention to the details that make the finished result look right.

How It Works

Our Lighting Installation Process

Every lighting project starts with a look at your existing wiring before any fixtures go up.

01Step 1

Site Assessment

We inspect your current wiring, panel capacity, and fixture locations to confirm the installation is safe and up to code.

02Step 2

Plan and Quote

We walk through fixture placement and circuit needs with you, then provide a quote based on the specific scope of work.

03Step 3

Installation

Our electricians run wiring where needed, mount fixtures, and connect switches or controls, keeping the workspace clean throughout.

04Step 4

Testing and Walkthrough

We test every fixture and switch, confirm proper operation, and walk you through the finished installation before we leave.

Frequently asked

Lighting Installation FAQs

Get clear answers about lighting installation, preparation, timing, maintenance, and what to expect before requesting an estimate.

Can you install lighting without rewiring my whole house?

In most cases, yes. Many fixtures can connect to existing circuits if there's available capacity. If your wiring is outdated or overloaded, we'll flag that during the assessment and discuss options before starting work.

Do you install outdoor and landscape lighting?

Yes, we install exterior fixtures including entryway lights, floodlights, and landscape lighting circuits, running new outdoor-rated wiring and protecting connections against weather exposure.

How long does a typical lighting installation take?

A single fixture swap can often be completed in a couple hours. Larger jobs involving multiple rooms or new wiring may take a full day or longer, depending on scope.

Can you add recessed lighting to an existing ceiling?

Yes, we regularly cut in and wire recessed lighting in finished ceilings, working around joists and insulation to place fixtures where you want them without unnecessary drywall damage.

Will you remove and dispose of my old fixtures?

Yes, we remove existing fixtures as part of the installation and haul them away, so you don't have to deal with the old hardware yourself.

Do you install dimmers and smart lighting controls?

Yes, we install dimmer switches and smart lighting controls, and can wire them alongside new fixtures or retrofit them into your existing lighting setup.

Do you serve areas outside Philadelphia?

Yes, we install lighting throughout Philadelphia and surrounding areas including Upper Darby Township, Norristown, King of Prussia, and Bensalem Township.

What if my breaker trips after lighting is installed?

That usually points to a circuit overload or a wiring issue, and we address it as part of the job. If it happens after we've finished, contact us and we'll come back to diagnose it.
