💡 Better Lighting Without Rebuilding the Whole Room
In many homes, meaningful lighting improvements can come from upgrading fixtures, changing controls or improving the existing layout rather than completely redesigning the electrical system.
Schedule Lighting ServiceNot every dimmer works correctly with every LED fixture or lamp. Using compatible lighting and controls helps reduce flickering, buzzing and poor dimming performance.
When the Light Isn’t the Real Problem
A light that flickers, will not turn on or behaves inconsistently may have an electrical problem behind it. BANN can troubleshoot the wiring, switch, dimmer, circuit and electrical connections to determine what is actually causing the issue.
The issue may involve the switch, wiring, circuit, electrical connection or the fixture itself.
Loose connections, incompatible controls or circuit problems can cause inconsistent operation.
Poor dimming, buzzing or flickering can result from incompatible lamps, fixtures, controls or wiring issues.
Worn switches, loose wiring and damaged electrical connections can prevent lighting from operating correctly.
If testing shows that the fixture itself has failed internally, BANN can disconnect and replace it with a compatible new fixture. We do not repair internal fixture electronics or components.
What’s Included in a BANN Lighting Installation
The exact scope depends on whether we're replacing an existing fixture or creating a completely new lighting location. BANN handles the electrical work needed for a safe, clean and professionally finished installation.
Existing Electrical Evaluation
We review the wiring, electrical box, switching and other conditions that affect the planned lighting work.
New Wiring When Needed
New lighting locations can include the branch-circuit wiring needed to supply the fixtures and controls.
Electrical Boxes & Supports
Appropriate electrical boxes and fixture support are installed or evaluated based on the equipment and location.
Switches & Dimmers
Compatible switches, dimmers and control locations can be installed or updated as part of the lighting project.
Fixture Installation
Compatible homeowner-supplied or planned lighting fixtures are mounted and connected to the electrical system.
Testing & Operation
Lighting, switches and controls are tested after installation to verify proper operation.
Code-Compliant Electrical Work
Electrical work is completed to applicable requirements for the project and installation conditions.
Clean Finished Installation
We focus on organized electrical work and leaving the work area clean when the project is complete.
New or Existing Locations

Residential Lighting Questions
Planning new lighting or replacing existing fixtures? Here are answers to common questions Maine homeowners have about residential lighting installation and electrical work.
Can BANN add lighting where no fixture exists now?
Yes. BANN can add new lighting locations, including the electrical boxes, wiring and switches needed for the installation. The exact scope depends on access, the existing electrical system and the planned lighting layout.
Can you install recessed lighting in an existing ceiling?
In many homes, yes. Existing ceiling construction, access above the ceiling, wiring routes and fixture placement all affect the installation. BANN can evaluate the space and determine what is practical for the planned recessed lighting layout.
Can BANN install light fixtures that I already purchased?
Yes, in many cases. BANN can install compatible homeowner-supplied fixtures when the existing electrical box, support, wiring and installation conditions are appropriate for the equipment.
Do you repair broken light fixtures?
BANN troubleshoots the electrical system supplying and controlling the light, including wiring, switches, dimmers, circuits and connections. If the fixture itself has failed internally, we can replace it with a compatible new fixture rather than repairing internal fixture components.
Why are my LED lights flickering when I use a dimmer?
Flickering can be caused by incompatible LED lamps, fixtures or dimmers, as well as wiring or connection problems. BANN can troubleshoot the electrical side of the system and determine whether the issue involves the control, wiring, connections or compatibility of the installed equipment.
Can you add exterior or motion-sensor lighting?
Yes. BANN installs compatible exterior, security and motion-activated lighting. We can replace existing fixtures or add new lighting locations where appropriate electrical wiring and controls are needed.
How much does residential lighting installation cost?
Cost depends on the project. Replacing an existing fixture is different from adding new recessed lighting, switches and wiring to a room with no existing ceiling lighting. BANN evaluates the scope and provides upfront project pricing based on the actual electrical work required.
Do lighting installations require a permit?
Permit requirements can vary depending on the municipality and scope of work. Simple fixture replacement may differ from projects involving new circuits, wiring or significant electrical changes. BANN addresses applicable electrical and permitting requirements for the planned work.
Tell us what you want to change or add. BANN can help determine whether the project involves a straightforward fixture replacement, new wiring and switching, or a larger lighting installation.
