Pot light installation in Aurora: what to expect
Most pot-light work in Aurora is in finished ceilings — 1970s–90s neighbourhoods and newer estate homes. We fish cable through the joist bays from the cut-outs, so you get new lighting without a ceiling tear-out.
We lay out lights to wash walls and light work surfaces, not as a uniform grid, and match dimmers to the LED drivers so they dim smoothly without flicker. In newer drywall ceilings the work is usually fast — a typical main floor takes a day.
Exterior soffit lighting is popular across Aurora too — on its own circuit, with a photocell or smart timer.
