Cabinet & Kitchen Lighting in Surprise & the West Valley

Under-cabinet lighting is one of the highest-impact, lowest-cost upgrades you can make to a kitchen. It eliminates shadows on countertops, makes food prep safer, and adds an upscale look that most homeowners notice immediately. Mason Electric installs hardwired LED under-cabinet and accent lighting systems throughout Surprise, Goodyear, and Peoria.

What Is Cabinet & Kitchen Lighting?

Cabinet and kitchen lighting refers to dedicated accent and task lighting installed within or beneath cabinetry. Unlike overhead kitchen fixtures that cast shadows exactly where you're working, under-cabinet lighting points directly at countertop surfaces — eliminating shadows and reducing eye strain.

Under-Cabinet & Kitchen Lighting Options

Hardwired LED Strip Lighting (Most Popular)

LED strip lighting runs along the underside of upper cabinets and connects to a dedicated switch — no cords, no plug strips, no visible outlets. We cut into drywall minimally to run wiring cleanly through walls and cabinets. Most installations use warm-white (2700K–3000K) LEDs.

Puck Lights (Inside Cabinets)

Ideal for glass-front cabinets, display shelves, or china hutches. We install recessed or surface-mounted LED puck lights wired to a dimmer switch.

Dimmer Integration

All our under-cabinet LED installations are compatible with dimmer switches. We use Lutron and Leviton dimmers compatible with LED loads to eliminate flicker.

How Much Does Under-Cabinet Lighting Cost?

Hardwired under-cabinet lighting for a standard kitchen with 8–12 feet of upper cabinets typically runs $400–$900 installed. Larger kitchens or projects requiring new circuits may run higher.

How Under-Cabinet Lighting Installation Works

  • Measure & Plan — We measure your cabinet runs, identify the switch location, and plan the cleanest wiring route.
  • Wire & Install — We run wiring, mount the LED strips or fixtures, connect to a new dedicated switch, and restore any drywall or trim we opened.
  • Dimmer Setup & Walkthrough — We install and configure the dimmer switch, test all fixtures, and walk you through the controls.
