Recessed Lighting Installation In Annapolis, MD

Installing recessed lighting is a great way to add a modern touch throughout your home. Whether you’re looking to give your kitchen a facelift or to add bright lights to a finished basement, new recessed lighting might be the perfect solution.

However, recessed lighting installation can be complicated and should only be attempted by people experienced with electrical work. If you are interested in enhancing the ambiance of your home, we encourage you to contact us to discuss how we can install recessed lighting and improve the overall aesthetic of your home.

What is recessed lighting?

Recessed lights, also known as “can lights”, are a type of light fixture that are mounted directly into the existing ceiling. The majority of the lights are housed above the ceiling drywall, so all you see is the trim and the bulb, giving the appearance of a light “recessed” into the ceiling. Most recessed lights have circular diameters available in 4–12” sizes.

Recessed lighting is very popular in modern homes because it is subtle, yet provides a lot of light. It can be used to create general lighting, ambient lighting, task lighting, and accent lighting, depending on the type and placement of the fixtures. Unlike traditional overhead fixtures, recessed lighting fixtures are not as visible and emit light from a more centralized source.

Recessed Lighting Benefits

Recessed lighting can be installed for many applications. Whether you’re looking to illuminate an entire room, highlight artwork, create a cozy atmosphere, or even provide task lighting for specific activities, recessed lights might be the perfect solution.

In addition to their aesthetic value, installing recessed LED lights can also help you save on energy costs. LED recessed lighting is more efficient and can last up to three times longer than traditional light bulbs, so you won’t have to worry about replacing them as often. You love your LED recessed lighting cost savings!

Using a recessed light trim and dimmer switch, you can easily adjust the light levels to create a dramatic effect that will showcase certain room features. If you want to add a more subtle effect, you can use a gimbal trim to direct the light without creating harsh shadows. No matter what your style, the recessed lighting service from Chesapeake Electric can help you set up a unique and beautiful look in your home.

Subject: Commendation for Exceptional Service – Chesapeake Electric and ServiceMaster Team

Dear Mr. Deshaies and CO.,

I am writing to formally express my family’s sincere gratitude for the exceptional service and support we received following the house fire at our home.

During an incredibly difficult and stressful time, Chesapeake Electric, under the ownership of Mr. Deshaies, provided outstanding service, professionalism, and dedication. I would especially like to recognize Head Master Electrician Matt for his extraordinary hard work, long and tedious hours, and the kindness and professionalism he consistently demonstrated throughout the process. His expertise, personal involvement, and willingness to go above and beyond were invaluable. In particular, we are deeply grateful for his assistance in ensuring the electrical work was completed properly, for helping us obtain the correct invoices, and for providing the explanations necessary to support our insurance claim. His continued support in addressing the full electrical panel replacement, house rewiring, and additional secondary damage related to environmental causes was truly exceptional.

I would also like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to Mr. Deshaies and his team for the remarkable restoration services they provided. From the very beginning, Chesapeake Electric's prompt response, timely and flexible scheduling, and close attention to detail gave us reassurance during an emergency situation caused by a freak event of nature. They quickly arranged a comprehensive damage assessment, and their team worked diligently to restore our home.

Their efforts included bringing in expert electricians, thoroughly inspecting and diagnosing all issues and related systems, and conducting a meticulous top-to-bottom, floor-to-ceiling professional electrical home renovation service. They successfully removed the damaged items, cables, wires, and all pertinent necessities and went above and beyond to help ensure our home was safe and that quality newly installed and properly tested lines and equipment were restored for our family’s comfort and well-being.

Mr. Deshaies themself, the owner of the company came out and spent over 12 hours during the initial cause, diagnosis, assessment, and worked hand-in-hand, rolling up their sleeves to assist Matt and their other team members in everything electric. They personally went back to their warehouse to save time and pick up all necessary equipment, inventoried, and laid the foundation for a meticulous insurance quote and detailed invoicing to include all necessary before and after the damage pictures. They wrote a personal professional email to explain to the insurance company the gravity and necessity of the situation and all the work that was being completed to include the secondary issues arising from the fire, to ensure we were 100% covered and taken care of.

Both Chesapeake Electric CO., Mr. Deshaies and his team demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, compassion, and commitment during one of the most challenging times our family has faced. Their hard work and care made a tremendous difference, and we wanted to ensure their efforts were formally recognized and shared with leadership.

Please extend our deepest thanks and appreciation to everyone involved.

Sincerely,

Mr. Dvir Samet

Chesapeake Electric is the only company I will use when it comes to all of my electrical needs. This is based on Chesapeake’s reliability, integrity, fair pricing, honesty, and quality workmanship/performance of their techs. Today I want to take the time to acknowledge Gary Howe, Alec Vazquez and Dan Sarnf. It is people like them who keep Chesapeake Electric #1 on my list when it comes to all of my electrical needs. They worked extremely hard for three consecutive days, explaining everything they were doing along the way in layman terms for me to understand. They are truly an asset for your company and another reason why I always recommend Chesapeake to anyone having electrical needs. Also, a shout out to Casey Wumer who did my yearly inspection as well as giving me a thorough and honest recommendation for what needed to be done. And let us not forget Jackie back in the office who handles every call with respect and class. All of these people mentioned are truly assets to your company.
