Professional cabinet lighting installation across the Bay Area

Whether you are brightening a sleek modern kitchen in a Palo Alto remodel or adding warm task lighting to a 1960s split-level in Fremont, under-cabinet lighting comes down to one thing: clean, consistent light with wiring that disappears. NorTech connects you with background-checked, vetted local electrical providers who handle LED strip installation, puck light placement, transformer wiring, and switch or dimmer integration — all at a price you approve before any work begins. No hourly meter, no surprise invoice, just beautiful, functional lighting that looks like it was always there. From the Peninsula to the East Bay and South Bay, your provider brings the right materials and know-how to complete the job efficiently and neatly.

Every cabinet lighting scenario, one trusted platform

Under-cabinet and cabinet lighting covers more ground than most homeowners expect. NorTech connects you with providers who handle continuous LED strip lighting along the underside of wall cabinets, individual puck lights for accent or task use, inside-cabinet display lighting for china hutches and built-ins, toe-kick lighting for dramatic kitchen ambiance, and dimmer or smart-switch integration so you can set the right mood. These installs suit the full range of Bay Area living situations — single-family homes refreshing an aging kitchen, high-end residential remodels where finish quality matters, multi-unit properties between tenant turnovers, property managers keeping rental units competitive, and short-term-rental hosts who know great kitchen lighting shows up in listing photos.

Strips, supply, dimmer: how cabinet lighting is wired

Under-cabinet lighting changes how a kitchen feels at night, and the difference is in the install: a slim channel and strip mounted tight to the cabinet, a power supply hidden out of sight, and wiring to a switch or dimmer with tidy cable management. Cabinet runs are counted on the booking screen, and a dimmer is an option, so a short counter and a long run of cabinets are each priced from what you choose.

When to book under-cabinet & cabinet lighting

Your kitchen countertops are dim even with overhead lights on and you find yourself squinting while chopping or reading labels.

You just repainted or renovated your kitchen and the bare cabinet undersides look unfinished without integrated lighting.

You have a display cabinet or china hutch with glass-front doors and want the contents to actually be visible in the evening.

You are staging or listing a Bay Area home and want kitchen photos that show bright, warm task lighting rather than shadowy counters.

You are updating a rental unit or short-term rental and want a low-cost upgrade that makes the kitchen feel significantly more premium.

You already have a dimmer switch or a smart-home system and want your cabinet lighting wired in so it responds to the same controls as the rest of your kitchen.

30-Day Warranty

Backed by your provider’s warranty. If covered work fails, your provider makes it right — free.

Frequently asked

Under-Cabinet & Cabinet Lighting — common questions

Each cabinet run counts toward the price, and a dimmer control can be added. Mounting the channel and strip, installing the power supply, wiring the switch or dimmer and managing the cables are included in the total you see before booking.

A workmanship warranty of at least 30 days covers it. A strip that works loose, a connection that fails or a dimmer that does not behave inside the first 30 days is corrected by the provider at no charge.

Both. NorTech connects you with providers who work with continuous LED strip lighting (ideal for even task illumination along the full underside of wall cabinets) and individual puck lights (better for accent spots or inside display cabinets). The right choice depends on your cabinet layout, your desired look, and whether you want dimmable or color-temperature options — your provider can walk you through it before work begins.

Concealing the wiring is a core part of the job. Your provider routes low-voltage wiring inside or behind cabinets and connects to an existing outlet or switch location so the finished result looks intentional and clean. If your kitchen layout presents a specific challenge — like no outlet inside the cabinet run — your provider will flag it and discuss options before starting.

Under-cabinet LED lighting is low-voltage work that typically does not require a licensed electrician or a permit in most Bay Area jurisdictions. NorTech's up-front installs cover standard under-cabinet and display-cabinet LED lighting. If your project involves new circuit additions, panel work, or anything that falls under licensed electrical scope, that larger work is quoted separately and clearly before any commitment.

Yes — dimmer and smart-switch integration is a common add-on. When you book, describe your existing switch setup (brand, whether it is already a dimmer, or if you want a new one added) and your provider will confirm compatibility with the LED components they plan to install. Dimmable LED strips require a compatible dimmer driver, and your provider will specify this upfront so there are no surprises.
