2020 was one of the most challenging years in recorded history, and most small businesses struggled to adapt to the new culture of social distancing and heightened cleanliness protocols. Businesses had to adopt new procedures, and take a look at the workplace itself.

For over four decades, Gary Houston Electric has been Arkansas’ most trusted provider of residential and commercial electrical services. We know that our customers have a lot of choices, which is why we are so committed to 100% customer satisfaction on every service we provide. We offer emergency services, energy efficiency estimates, and can also help you with lighting design for your home or your business. Contact us today for a free consultation, and we’ll make specific recommendations. We also offer a few things to consider as you create your lighting design:

How can you accentuate focal points? Every home or business has key areas that need to be placed front and center in the design process. A dramatic lighting effect can now be achieved with much lower energy costs, and a large light fixture can be a striking centerpiece in a tastefully appointed room.

Do you need flexible lighting? Dimmer switches have been around for a long time, and are an affordable way to create as much or as little light in a room as you need. Just be sure to use dimmable LED bulbs for best results.

Direct or indirect lighting? Sometimes a large direct light source can be harsh and unpleasant for prolonged use. In a kitchen or a key living room area, track lighting can be a great organic way to light a room without calling attention to itself.

If you have any questions, or if you need an electrician, contact us online or give us a call at 501-375-8330.
