Indoor Lighting Services in Massachusetts
From repair to new installation, there’s not much our lighting experts can’t do! The best place to start is to decide what type of lighting you’re looking for. Here are some common examples of fixtures we can help with:
Task Lighting: As the name implies, these are usually good for specific situations like cooking over a stovetop, adding light to a reading nook, or other spaces where you need light for a specific task. Usually, these are dimmable to adjust for eye strain at different times of the day.
Ambient Lighting: Provides general lighting to an entire room or workspace. Examples are wall sconces, chandeliers, entryway lights, recessed can lighting, and more.
Accent Lighting: Used to accentuate different areas of your home, such as bookshelves or artwork. Some examples are track lighting and underhead shelf lighting.

Do You Install Outdoor Electrical Outlets?
An outdoor electrical outlet is called a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter). Electrical code requires that electrical outlets be GFCI when being used in bathrooms, wet areas of a kitchen, basements, and outside electrical areas.
With our certified electricians we can install the outdoor electrical outlet required for outdoor lighting and landscape lighting needs.

Should I Tackle Lighting Projects Without a Professional?
We recommend that all our customers stick with a professional when it comes to lighting projects. Not only can lights be in difficult and dangerous areas such as high up on a vaulted ceiling or above a stairwell, but without the proper training, it’s all too easy to make mistakes such as overloading a circuit.
Smaller projects can be tackled by a homeowner such as replacing an existing, low-hanging light fixture or ceiling fan, but you should always exercise extreme caution when dealing with electricity and make sure the circuit is off at the breaker box before beginning any work.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What types of indoor and outdoor lighting does Heritage install?
Heritage installs all types of residential lighting including recessed lights, pendant fixtures, under-cabinet lighting, chandeliers, landscape lighting, security floodlights, and pathway lights. We handle the complete process from wiring and fixture installation to switch and dimmer configuration.
-
Can Heritage upgrade my home to energy-efficient LED lighting?
Yes, Heritage can replace outdated incandescent and fluorescent fixtures with modern LED lighting throughout your home. LED upgrades reduce electricity consumption by up to 75% and the bulbs last significantly longer, making them an excellent investment for Massachusetts homeowners looking to lower utility costs.
-
Does outdoor lighting require special wiring or fixtures in Massachusetts?
Yes, outdoor lighting must use weather-rated fixtures and wiring rated for exterior exposure, and circuits typically require GFCI protection to meet Massachusetts electrical code. Heritage ensures every outdoor lighting installation is properly weatherproofed and code-compliant for safe, long-lasting performance.
-
How can outdoor lighting improve my home’s security?
Strategically placed outdoor lighting such as motion-activated floodlights, pathway lights, and accent lighting eliminates dark areas around your property that intruders could exploit. Heritage designs outdoor lighting plans that combine security coverage with curb appeal to enhance both safety and aesthetics.
-
Can Heritage install dimmer switches for my existing lights?
Yes, Heritage can install dimmer switches for most lighting fixtures, giving you full control over brightness and ambiance in any room. We ensure the dimmer is compatible with your bulb type — especially important with LED fixtures — and can also install smart dimmers for app and voice control.
