If you have recently moved into a home and have plans to put your personal touch on it, you are probably considering some renovations. Other reasons to renovate include accommodating a growing family or transforming the family home into one that is more of a retirement home. Maybe your home is old and you want to upgrade it to feel a little better or you are preparing to sell. No matter what your reasons for renovating may be, you will need an electrician in Glendale to help you make it possible. The team at The Electric Connection can assist you in making those renovation dreams a reality.

There are many different ways to renovate a home. Some are a little more labor intensive than others. A renovation may be something as simple as transforming a bedroom into an office. This would only require a Glendale electrician to do some minor changes to the wiring, including bringing in data lines and more outlets for equipment. Maybe you are making an office space into a bedroom and want to change out the fixtures to be a little more suitable for a bedroom. This is a quick fix that can be achieved in a single day when you rely on a certified electrician.

If you are going big and adding a new room or knocking out walls to make a space bigger, you will definitely need the services of an electrician. Glendale homeowners should always leave wiring issues to the professionals. An electrician can ensure the wiring is removed safely and new wiring is installed to compensate if needed. Kitchen upgrades are also going to run into some wiring issues, especially if you are adding more appliances or moving existing appliances. Give The Electric Connection a call today and set up your appointment to talk about your renovation plans.

The term “light box” can mean a few different things, but from a lighting perspective it typically refers to a backlit display panel. Light boxes are most commonly used for advertisements or other commercial displays. You’ve probably seen them in trade show booths, restaurants, airports, nightclubs, offices, hotels, museum exhibits, and retail shops. That’s right, light boxes are everywhere.

One of the most common uses for light boxes is the commercial advertisement. You see these in large spaces like terminals or outdoors at bus stops. They capture the attention of passers-by and create lasting impressions. The light box pictured below is one of the biggest I’ve ever seen.

One of the most obvious places you’ll see light boxes are along the walls inside and outside of movie theaters. Sometimes lines of light boxes stretch incredible distances, advertising all the movies being shown in large theaters.

In fact, light boxes can be a fun addition to any home and can be used for as many purposes as you can imagine. Sure, you could illuminate a movie poster of your daughter’s favorite movie. But you could also make a custom sign saying whatever you want. I really like the light box below, created at home for home.
