Beautiful Cabinet Lighting That Works
We install clean, low-profile lighting that brightens countertops, improves visibility, and adds a warm finished look.
We install clean, low-profile lighting that brightens countertops, improves visibility, and adds a warm finished look.
We start with an on-site visit to look at your cabinets, backsplash, wire access, and existing electrical system. Then we help you choose the right under-cabinet LED lighting, color temperature, switch or dimmer options, and provide a clear estimate with a realistic timeline.
Before any work begins, we map out fixture placement, transformer or driver locations, switching, and concealment for a clean finish. This planning step helps us minimize wall damage, avoid shadows or glare, and make sure your cabinet lighting performs as well as it looks.
Our licensed electricians install the cabinet lighting neatly, secure all connections, and test each section for even output and safe operation. We finish with a full walkthrough, show you how your controls work, and make sure you are completely happy before we consider the job done.
Brighten your kitchen fast with safe, expert installation from Hatchett Electrical Services, Inc.
Cabinet lighting is one of the best ways to make a kitchen, bathroom, bar area, laundry room, or built-in storage space look better and work better. At Hatchett Electrical Services, Inc., we install cabinet lighting that adds clean light right where you need it. It helps you see countertops, improve safety while cooking, and give your space a warm, finished look.
We have installed lighting in all kinds of homes, from simple under-cabinet lights for task lighting to full accent lighting systems for custom cabinetry. Our goal is always the same: give you a lighting setup that looks great, works reliably, and fits the way you use your space every day.
Cabinet lighting is designed to brighten the areas around and inside your cabinets. Most homeowners choose it for a mix of function and style. Good lighting can reduce shadows on kitchen counters, make meal prep easier, and help highlight tile backsplashes, glass cabinets, shelving, or decorative features.
Cabinet lighting is commonly used for:
We help homeowners choose the right cabinet lighting based on the layout, finish, brightness needs, and overall style of the room. In most cases, LED cabinet lighting is the best option because it is energy efficient, long lasting, low heat, and available in different color temperatures and control options.
Common cabinet lighting options include:
When we install cabinet lighting, we start by looking at how the space is used and how the cabinets are built. Cabinet lighting should not just be added wherever there is room. It needs to be placed correctly for even light, minimal glare, safe wiring, and a polished final result.
Our process typically includes:
We focus on details that matter. That includes fixture spacing, beam direction, trim appearance, wire management, and making sure the lighting blends naturally with the rest of the room. A good cabinet lighting job should look intentional, not added on as an afterthought.
Some cabinet lighting products are plug-in, while others are hardwired into your home's electrical system. We often recommend hardwired cabinet lighting when homeowners want the cleanest look and the most reliable long-term setup. Hardwired systems hide cords, work well with wall switches, and can often be paired with dimmers and smart controls.
Plug-in products may work for certain situations, but they are not always the best choice for a finished custom appearance. We can explain the pros and cons of each option and recommend what makes the most sense for your space, budget, and goals.
The right cabinet lighting should match the room and support the way you use it. Brightness and color temperature play a big part in the final result.
We also help you avoid common issues like lighting that is too harsh, too dim, poorly placed, or mismatched with the rest of the room. Our goal is to make sure the lighting improves both appearance and usability.
Professionally installed cabinet lighting does more than add style. It can improve daily comfort, make work areas more useful, and add value to your home. With proper planning and installation, the lighting becomes a built-in feature that feels like part of the original design.
Benefits include:
While kitchen under-cabinet lighting is the most common request, cabinet lighting can add value in many parts of the home. We install lighting in new construction, remodeling projects, and lighting upgrades where homeowners want to improve an existing space.
Cabinet lighting can be used in:
At Hatchett Electrical Services, Inc., we bring real electrical experience to every lighting project. We understand not just how the fixtures should look, but how the wiring, controls, safety, and performance all need to come together. We take pride in clean workmanship, straightforward communication, and lighting installations that are built to last.
Whether you want subtle LED accent lighting or bright under-cabinet task lighting, we can help you plan the right setup for your home. We will explain your options clearly, install the system properly, and make sure the finished result looks clean and works the way it should.

"Hatchett Electrical is absolutely fabulous.I have used them multiple times for various projects and they have always performed above expectations. I have been in construction for 45 years and there is no other electrical company I would call to perform work in my home other than Hatchett Electrical."
"Very professional and reliable I had them do two separate jobs and I was very happy with both. I would use them again and also recommend to others."
"Amazing company! They did solid by me and got me back with power quickly! Highly recommend!"
"Affordable with quality."
"Aaron had provided excellent service at an extremely competitive price. From estimate to completion I never had to wait to receive at least an update and he always communicated with me what the next step was and when it would happen. Extremely happy would recommend to anyone needing electrical work completed."
"Had them wire my shed from the existing extension cord set up to hard wired to my breaker panel....the work was done exceptionally and up to code!!!! Price was very very fair and was done in a couple of hours... I thought it would take longer and cost more.....will be calling them again for any electrical projects"
"Highly recommend! We had them come to install some fixtures at our home and we are very satisfied. Great work at a fair price."
"Aaron Hatchett came to the rescue after THE BIG WINDSTORM had torn the main power line from our house and we could not get help. He said "there is no way I can leave you here in danger with this thing hanging by a thread". He not only knew what to do to repair the problem, but he also knew what he had to do to work with the city inspector and the electric company. He stayed in clear communication, saved us money, and went above and beyond."
"Hatchett Electrical did an outstanding job replacing numerous panel boxes at several apartment/commercial properties we own. They worked through the process with Dominion and the cities public works and utility departments thoroughly and very knowledgeably. Hatchett also worked on other residential projects and did a great job. I highly recommend Hatchett Electrical for any commercial or residential electrical work."
"Hatchett Electrical was GREAT! They were punctual, honest, and did a great job! We had an issue with our bathroom receptacles and Chris had everything back up and running smoothly for us! He checked out our electrical box and discovered a few issues that he corrected for us as well. We were very grateful for his help. We would highly recommend this company and plan to use them again soon for more upcoming electrical projects. A++"
"I highly recommend Hatchett Electrical. I hired them to install permanent pole lighting and an electrical outlet on a pier I had constructed the previous year. The pier had an electrical connection for a boat lift installed by another electrician. Although problems were discovered by Hatchett Electrical, caused by the previous electrician, Aaron and company were able to work through this in a very professional manner. Their price was fair, they were very responsive as we worked through issues. I repeat. I HIGHLY recommend this company for any of your current and future electrical needs. Aaron is the best!"
"On time, On budget, great communication and follow up.. what more could you ask for!!!!"
"What a great bunch of folks!! Aaron worked HARD to ensure my electrical was perfect for my home remodel. He was on the phone negotiating when there were problems with vendors. He was my champion when things didn’t go quite as planned (through no fault of Hatchett Electrical). I met two different crews during their work with us. Both crews were personable, competent professionals, and very helpful when asked to do something new. My project was not a common everyday install, but there was no hesitation to venture into new territory and I believe they were just as excited as I was to ‘figure it out’. Eric and Nate especially were tasked with the majority of the install. From electrical panels to light switches to overhead inserts to countertop lighting, they did EVERYTHING as requested, even when mistakes were made that others may have become frustrated by. It is not often that you can feel 100% confident that your request will be completed with exemplary workmanship. This, however is the case with Hatchett Electrical. Their steadfast determination to provide a professional product was evident at every turn. Without any hesitation, I wholeheartedly recommend them. I could not be more pleased with everything that they did for my project. Outstanding, excellent work! They will most definitely be my go to electrical team moving forward!"

"Hatchett Electrical has completed multiple projects at our home and we are incredibly satisfied every time with the quality of work and professionalism! Everything is explained well and they truly take pride in their work! Strongly recommend!"
"Always ready to help and easy to work with!"
"Issue: a simple 120V light switch in kitchen that controls garbage disposal stopped working, and the wire was still HOT! As a homeowner, I bought new light switch thinking that was issue, change out, still no power. I called Aaron at Hatchett to make an appointment. He was gracious and professional to a point where he quickly trouble-shot the problem, suggested hitting the reset button on the disposal; which correctly the issue. He could have driven out, made the $120 plus cost for any materials, but he was more concern about resolving an issue. That is customer service and a business that is all about you the homeowner!! Bravo Zulu!!"
"I recently called Hatchett Electrical, last minute on a Monday, and was immediately set-up with an appointment for that same afternoon! The electrician was already finished with his jobs for the day but took the call to come to my house that afternoon around 3pm. He was right on time, walked me through the initial troubleshooting, and was very straight forward and honest the whole time during the appointment. He found and fixed our issue with some bad connections outside on our patio in less than an hour! I was highly impressed with the customer service of this company and will definitely use them again."
