When it comes to home improvement projects, it’s always important to get the most “bang for your buck!” Most of us have limited budgets to work with, and often only a few days to work at a time. The good news is that upgrading your home lighting design is one of the most affordable ways to make a big impact right away!

If you have questions about home lighting design in Little Rock, our team at Gary Houston Electric is here to help! We’ve been Arkansas’ leading residential and commercial electrical services contractor since 1978, and we love helping our customers with their remodeling projects. Give us a call for a free consultation, and let us know how we can help. Here are a few home lighting ideas to consider in your upcoming home improvement plans:

Home Lighting-If you haven’t already replaced all of the lightbulbs in your home with LEDs, it’s a small investment that will save you money on your energy costs. We can also install new light fixtures, recessed lighting, and track lighting to help you create ambiance in your living room. We can also help you create great new home lighting designs that seamlessly integrate form and function.

Be sure to take the time to learn about LED color temperatures before you select your lighting and paint colors. A color temperature under 3000K has a soft reddish tint that’s most ideal for home lighting, and color temperatures of 4000K-5000K have a brighter and more bluish tint that’s ideal for kitchens and bathrooms.

Smart Lighting and Appliances-A programmable thermostat is a great way to manage your monthly energy consumption, and you can also invest in state-of-the-art smart lighting packages for your home. You can manage all of the functions from your smartphone, and can even integrate your lighting with your home security systems.

Outdoor Lighting-Security lighting with a motion sensor is a good way to protect your garage and sides of your home. We can also help you transform your backyard deck and patio into a great lighted outdoor space that you can enjoy all night long!

If you have any questions, or would like to schedule service, contact us online or at 501-375-8330.
