Pot Light Installation in Markham, Ontario

Recessed LED pot lights, planned per room for even, glare-free light — indoors and on exterior soffits.

Trusted Electric Group installs recessed LED pot lights across Markham — kitchens, basements, living rooms, bathrooms and exterior soffits — planned per room for even, glare-free light.

We use warm, dimmable LEDs (2700–3000K) with IC-rated housings for insulated ceilings and wet-rated trims for bathrooms and exterior soffits — the same standard behind our 5.0-star rating across 68 Google reviews.

Pot lights in Markham’s homes

Markham mixes established streets with new subdivisions, so we see both sides of pot-light work: retrofits into finished drywall in older homes, and upgrade jobs in newer builds where the builder layout needs more light, better dimmers, or exterior soffit coverage.

We are based in Aurora, a short drive from Markham — most quotes go out the same day, and Markham jobs get priority scheduling. Send photos of the rooms and we will quote the exact job — free, usually the same day.

Where pot lights make the biggest difference

What’s included

Our process

  1. Layout plan. We map joists, wiring and insulation, then mark every light location with you before cutting.
  2. Installation. Housings set, wiring run to code, trims fitted flush. Most rooms take a few hours.
  3. Controls. Dimmers or smart switches wired where you want them — including three-way setups.
  4. Aim and dim. We set colour temperature and dimming range, then walk the room with you at night if needed.
Doing more than lighting? Pot lights pair well with a panel upgrade in Markham when the service is full, or an EV charger in Markham while we are in the panel. Pot lights nearby in Richmond Hill, Stouffville, Toronto.

Common questions

Pot Light Installation in Markham: FAQ

How much does pot light installation cost in Markham?

It depends on the number of lights, ceiling type (finished drywall, insulated attic above, or open joists) and whether you want dimmers or smart controls. Send photos of the rooms and we will quote the exact job — free, usually the same day. No invented numbers, no surprises on install day.

How many pot lights does a room in Markham need?

It depends on room size, ceiling height and purpose — a kitchen needs more task light than a hallway. We plan the layout per room for even coverage, typically spaced 4–6 feet apart, and mark every location with you before cutting.

Can you add pot lights to a finished ceiling in Markham?

Usually yes. Slim LED retrofits need only small round cutouts, and we plan wiring routes to minimize patching. We confirm joist direction, insulation and existing wiring before any cutting starts.

Do you install exterior soffit lights in Markham?

Yes — exterior soffit pot lights are one of our most requested jobs, especially heading into the darker months. We use wet-rated trims built for Canadian winters, and they can go on timers or smart controls so they run automatically at dusk.

How fast can you install pot lights in Markham?

We are based in Aurora, a short drive from Markham — most quotes go out the same day, and Markham jobs get priority scheduling. Most rooms take a few hours; a whole main floor is typically a one-day job.

Can the pot lights be dimmed?

Yes — dimmable warm LEDs (2700–3000K) with compatible dimmer or smart switches are our standard for living spaces. We set the dimming range on install day so nothing flickers at low light.
