Pot Light Installation for Kitchens, Basements & Living Rooms
Clean layouts, IC-rated fixtures and dimmers that don't flicker. Charged Electric installs pot lights for homes across Kitchener-Waterloo and Wilmot Township, priced upfront and ESA inspected.
What Good Pot Light Installation Looks Like
Recessed lighting
Anyone can cut holes in a ceiling. A good pot light job starts with layout: spacing that lights the room evenly, beam angles that suit the ceiling height, and colour temperature that matches how the room is used.
Every install includes:
A layout plan before any holes are cut, walked through with you
IC-rated fixtures where insulation is present, as code requires
Slim LED fixtures for tight ceilings and vapour-sealed options where needed
Compatible dimmers, so the lights dim smoothly instead of flickering
Openings cut clean to fixture size and a tidy site when we leave
Kitchens, basements, living rooms and exteriors each light differently. We'll tell you how many you actually need, which is often fewer than you think.
Even Light, Not a Ceiling Full of Holes
Charged Electric installs pot lights across New Hamburg, Wilmot Township and Kitchener-Waterloo, from four lights over a kitchen island to a whole-basement layout.
Pot Lights
- Layout First
- Spacing and beam angles planned on paper before the first hole, so the room lights evenly without a grid of glare.
- IC-Rated and Sealed
- Fixtures rated for insulation contact, vapour-sealed where the ceiling needs it. That's code, and it prevents heat and moisture problems above.
- Licensed, Insured, ESA Inspected
- ECRA/ESA licensed 7011473 and fully insured. Circuits, switching and fixtures wired to code and inspected.
- Upfront Pricing
- You approve one number for the layout, fixtures, switching and dimmers before we start.
Kitchens, Basements and Everywhere Else
Room by room
Each room asks for something different. Kitchens want bright task lighting over counters; basements want even coverage from low ceilings; living rooms want warmth on dimmers; exteriors want soffit lights that survive the weather.
Popular projects:
Kitchen pot lights with under-cabinet task lighting to match
Basement layouts using slim LEDs that clear low joists
Living and dining rooms on dimmers with warm colour temperatures
Exterior soffit pot lights for curb appeal and security
Swapping old halogen pots for sealed LEDs counts too: less heat, less energy, no more bulb changes. Request a quote and we'll get back to you within one business day.

They installed a whole home generator for us. Top notch job! Everything went tickity boo. A lot of work involved but the trades were all very professional and explained the job to us as we went along. Other contractors wouldn’t even return our calls. Highly recommend! Local too!

I had them come help me with issues when I had my Lyric Thermostat. On time (early), pet friendly (did not mind my hyper chocolate lab) and price range very reasonable. I would highly recommend Charged Electric in the future.
