Few home upgrades transform a Brooklyn brownstone or condo faster than strategic lighting. From sleek recessed cans that highlight original brick to statement pendants over an island, the right fixture adds comfort, safety, and resale value. CountBricks specializes in lighting Brooklyn NY homes, pairing experienced electricians with game-changing AI estimating tools that make every project predictable and stress-free.
Pre-war walk-ups, post-war co-ops, and glass-walled new builds all line our borough’s streets. Each style demands a different wiring approach, fixture scale, and lumen output. Older joists may hide knob-and-tube surprises, while LEED-leaning condos might already run smart-home cabling. CountBricks technicians audit these conditions during a quick on-site call, logging details in our voice-driven app to generate a live materials list and cost breakdown.

• Transparent labor and material pricing pulled from current Brooklyn suppliers
• Licensed, insured electricians who respect historic finishes
• Digital quote documents ready for condo boards and financing
• One-click change orders when you add under-cabinet LEDs or smart dimmers
