If you recently moved into a new home and have decided it is time to really celebrate with a new level of sophistication, call
Illuminations Lighting and Design for any type of electrical work or home lighting. Since 1980 our team of residential lighting designers and licensed electricians have worked on every type of recessed lighting fixture, fine art lighting projector and installed Lutron wall box dimmer controls all over Houston.
Other residential electrical services that ILD provides include:
Electrical system installation begins with our team of licensed electricians conducting a systematic testing and analysis of your home electrical panel. This confluence of wires and breakers is the backbone, heart, and very soul of your home’s entire electrical system.
As effective as dedicated circuits have proven when it comes to maintaining a continuous supply of electricity to each major home device, dedicated circuits cannot buffer appliances (or themselves, for that matter), against transient power surge. Transient power surge will destroy home appliances in a matter of seconds if sufficient high voltage spikes in a nearby transformer, the home circuit panel, or an electrical motor connected to the home wiring network.
No matter how well-protected your home is against power fluctuation and transient surge, no one can stop a hurricane or severe thunderstorm from bringing down the entire power grid itself. This is why one of the most important upgrades you can make to your home electrical system is the installation of a commercial-grade backup generator.
Outdoor Lighting Maintenance
Achieving superior quality in landscape lighting design requires much more than a bargain buy. It requires top-notch manufacturer and carefully planned installation. Illuminations Lighting Design differs in our function not only as vendors of every major landscape lighting manufacturer, but also as a outdoor lighting consulting firm with an eye for creativity and a passion to meet and exceed client expectations with truly unique and lasting benefits.
ILD is a one of kind, one source solution for recessed lighting installation, repair, and maintenance. As skilled lighting designers, we know exactly what makes your home furnishings, prized paintings, prints, and portraits shine with maximum color and value. If you have recently redecorated your home at considerable cost to have only the finest artwork on your walls, then why not call Illuminations Lighting to design a recessed art lighting to compliment and maximize the appearance of that investment?

Today's electrical job candidate faces an uncertain marketplace where value is often devalued by suppressed wages and minimum benefits. Even the skilled and licensed Apprentice and Journeyman often face lower pay filtered through employment agencies and payroll outsourcing outfits. Few such electrical jobs offer the truly value of competitive wages paid on the basis of service, growth, and demonstrated merit. Even fewer offer a benefits package capable of covering illness and injury to the worker or family member. The smaller percentage of electrical jobs in Houston that do offer adequate pay and minimal benefits often remain on indefinite contract status with little or no conversion to full time status and almost no additional training or opportunity for personal growth or professional development.
The result is a highly stagnant labor pool that is ironically filled by highly dynamic and exceptionally qualified persons whose true value has yet to be discovered. If you are such a person facing what appears to be an insurmountable wall of invalidation and limitation, take hope. Illuminations Lighting and Design has a number of electrical jobs for Houston candidates just like you who look to better themselves as they evolve in step with a superior organization.
Should you qualify for an electrical job of any kind at ILD, you can count on being hired directly in as an employee at a fair, competitive wage reflective of your experience, credentials, reputation, and accomplishments to date. We base salary on merit, and we pay it directly to those who merit a job as an electrical specialist on our team. We do not take solicitations from recruiters and we do not outsource payroll to employment agencies. Why? Because we feel it devalues our organization to have someone else take care of the people that it is our responsibility to train, value, protect, and grow in our own ranks. If you join our ranks, we want you to be proud of the fact that you were chosen to work among the most recognized residential electrical contractors in the Houston area. We want to give you more than an electrical job and an average paycheck. We want to educate you and train you (on our dime, with your investment of reasonable time) in an area of specialization that you can then offer service to our community of clientele. We have electrical jobs in Houston construction, landscaping, home automation, and fine art lighting, all of which involve a highly-specialized blend of basic electrical wiring techniques, training and certification in new technologies, and proprietary design strategies our company has spent over 27 years perfecting.
Once you demonstrate ethics, staying power, and a willingness to grow into your personal and professional best, we will finance that development by funding your attendance at electrical and home automation training programs. Remember, all of our electrical jobs require some level of specialty, and most require highly specialized and sometimes expensive training that we willingly invest in you if you are truly serious about growing and remaining with our team. At times, an electrical job bid may come from outside the Houston area and require occasional travel to get the business. Employees willing to travel within reason may earn further experience and gain even higher degrees of specialization through experience in other markets and geographies. Most of your time, however, will be spent growing where you are planted, here in Houston. In spite of our statewide delivery capability, the majority of our electrical jobs are in Houston both in commercial markets and upscale residential neighborhoods such as River Oaks, Memorial, Bellaire, West University, and the Villages.Please don't think we expect you to already be the best in Houston to be offered an electrical job with ILD. We simply want you to be willing to become the best and to remain on board as a member of a highly skilled- and highly respected- team of professionals whose expertise and innovation offer a unique blend of technology and creativity that improves the quality of life for clients and compensates the service professionals who delivers that improvement with generous pay and exceptional benefits.

People have always remarked that the bathroom is the one room in the house that everyone eventually visits. Perhaps this is true now more than ever before as increasing numbers of people invite guests to their home rather than going out on the town. The bathroom is not only the most visited room; it is becoming a much busier room. Homeowners are realizing that bathroom design and lighting are important components of their homes overall interior design and decorative scheme. While an individual can create a basic design with bathroom lighting fixtures purchased in stores or over the Internet, the results may turn out disappointing when the homeowner realizes after the fact that generic equipment delivers only limited function and aesthetic. For the progressive homeowner looking to invest in top quality bathroom lighting design and lighting fixtures, Illuminations Lighting and Design has both the equipment and the skill set required to develop a safe, reliable, and custom solution specific to the needs of the individual resident.
We take what we call a functional-solution minded approach to building the aesthetic of a bathroom lighting design theme. We never neglect what pleases the eye, but we always make certain to please the eye with something that serves a practical purpose. The first area we normally address is the vanity. The biggest problem created by standard bathroom fixtures is the uneven distribution of light that casts shadows over the mirror and the counter. This makes daily essentials such as shaving and putting on makeup very difficult because the lighting conditions outdoors and at work are very different from those created by standard bathroom lighting. When we install bathroom lights, we design their arrangement in such a way as to deliver good frontal lighting over the entire vanity area and eliminate annoying and distracting shadows. As electrical contractors certified in both residential and commercial wiring, Illuminations Lighting also designs and installs bathroom lighting themes and fixtures that are safe and reliable for daily use. We anticipate the needs of the client by designing outlets located in drawers for blow driers, curling irons, and other electrical appliances. This minimizes exposure to moisture and removes unsightly cords from view. When necessary, we will install GFCI protected circuits to provide a safe, wet location environment that minimizes the risk of electrocution and short circuits. This proactive measure makes our bathroom lighting designs not only more functional and aesthetically attractive, but also highly safe under a variety of operating conditions.
We can further add convenience and sophistication to bathroom lighting design by linking it to a home automation system. By linking the bathroom to a central control unit, we can remove steam and odors by incorporating quiet and efficient exhaust fans controlled by automated timers. Homeowners especially appreciate the quiet nature of our equipment and the way it seems to anticipate their every concern. By designing bathroom lighting themes with variety as well as convenience in mind, we can empower the client to choose from multiple lighting themes and set their own level of lighting for their particular needs and comfort zones. We can accomplish this with either home lighting control systems or wall box dimmer controls that adjust the light from near-dark to full brightness through rotary controls, keypads, sliding controls, or home automation systems. We can even duplicate the full color rendering of the natural spectrum by using color corrected lamps to produce full spectrum lighting conducive to selecting colors when dressing.
Before considering the costly and inconvenient endeavor of completely remodeling the bathroom, why not consider the benefits of investing in quality and innovating bathroom lighting design? With the help of Illuminations Lighting, you can expect a whole new look - and for all intents and purposes - a whole new bathroom to emerge before your eyes. Call us today at 713-863-1133 to see how much we can do for you.

Wiring a modern home takes careful thought and planning. Some of today's residences range from 1,500 square foot custom homes, to as much as 35,000 square feet on some mansions. Add to the growing size of homes the sheer diversity of electrical equipment that has arrived on the residential scene--such as home theaters, home automation systems, security systems and outdoor lighting--and you might as well be wiring a small commercial building! Gone are the days of providing a few extra circuits, looping the telephone wire from room to room, or installing simple dimmer controls. Today's electrical contractors must understand and manage a plethora of subsystems that include everything from emergency generators to lighting control systems. Where there were once traditional switches on the wall, you now find keypads and touch screens. Standby generators have become the norm, rather than the exception.
