I had the pleasure of hiring Wilson Electric Installations Inc (Ryan) to install my Tesla wall charger, and I’m extremely impressed. Their work was FLAWLESS, and the result is PERFECT.They were professional, punctual, and left the area spotless with their own vacuum :). I highly recommend Ryan and his team for anyone needing Tesla charger installation or any electric works. Thank you for a fantastic job!!

How to Add Pot Lights Without Attic Access in Your Home
Adding pot lights to an existing ceiling without attic access requires retrofit LED housings designed to install from below. IC-rated fixtures are mandatory when insulation contact is possible under Ontario Electrical Safety Code. The process involves cutting precise holes, fishing wires through ceiling cavities, and securing spring-clip housings. Most rooms need 4-6 pot lights spaced 4-6 feet apart for proper coverage.
Office Pot Light Layout: Spacing, Placement & Design Guide
Office pot light layout follows the rule of spacing fixtures 4-6 feet apart with the first row positioned half that distance from walls. Commercial spaces require 50-75 foot-candles of illumination for desk work according to IESNA standards. A typical 10×12 office needs 4-6 recessed lights using 4-inch or 6-inch housings. LED pot lights rated 3000K-4000K provide optimal color temperature for productivity without eye strain. Proper layout eliminates shadows and creates even light distribution across work surfaces.
How to Choose a Pot Light Electrician: Hiring Checklist
Choosing a pot light electrician requires verifying ESA licensing, liability insurance, and specific recessed lighting experience. Request photos of completed pot light installations and check online reviews across multiple platforms. Quality installers discuss layout planning, fixture selection, and dimmer compatibility before quoting. Average pot light installation costs $100-$200 per fixture including materials. Avoid contractors who cannot explain IC-rated versus non-IC housings or proper spacing calculations. Written quotes should specify fixture brands, quantities, warranty terms, and whether drywall patching is included.
