Yes. Heavy chandeliers require a fan-rated junction box or structural chandelier support — not the standard light fixture box. We install the appropriate support hardware during the fixture installation.
For Cardiff's coastal environment, we recommend fixtures with aluminum, solid brass, or powder-coated cast aluminum housings, stainless steel mounting hardware, and damp- or wet-rated ratings depending on exposure. Standard zinc-cast fixtures corrode quickly near the coast.
Replacing a fixture on an existing box does not require a permit. Adding new fixtures on new circuits may require a City of Encinitas permit. We assess and handle permits when needed.
We can advise on junction box requirements, fixture weight limits, indoor vs. outdoor ratings, and color temperature. For detailed fixture style selection, we recommend Encinitas-area lighting showrooms or your interior designer.
Standard chandeliers on existing properly rated boxes take 2–3 hours. Large or very heavy fixtures requiring structural support take 3–5 hours. We provide time estimates when scheduling.
