Improper chandelier installation can create safety risks, including fire hazards and the risk of the fixture falling. Having a licensed electrician handle the job gives you confidence that it’s done correctly.
Standard junction boxes are typically rated for fixtures up to 50 pounds. If your new chandelier is heavier than that, the junction box will need to be upgraded to a fan-rated or chandelier-rated box that can handle the additional weight. We assess this as part of every chandelier installation.
Yes, though it requires running new wiring and installing a proper junction box in the ceiling, which is more involved than a straightforward swap. We handle this type of installation regularly and can walk you through what’s involved before any work begins.
If new bulbs don’t solve the flickering, the issue is likely a loose wiring connection inside the fixture or at the junction box, a dimmer switch that isn’t compatible with the bulb type, or a circuit issue. A professional inspection will identify the cause and get it resolved.
While fixture selection is ultimately your decision, we’re happy to share general guidance on sizing based on your room dimensions and ceiling height. As a rule of thumb, adding the length and width of your room in feet gives you a reasonable chandelier diameter in inches as a starting point.
