“Northwest Wattage helped bring my home up to code prior to selling and did a fantastic job adding electrical/ lighting to our home garage! No BS, fair pricing and good communication.”
Our Work
Custom homes across North Idaho — kitchens, great rooms, wine cellars, smart home controls, and the panel work behind all of it. These are our own photos from our own jobs.
Kitchens & living spaces
Where the lighting has to be right
Islands, pendants, under-cabinet runs, and the layout work that decides where every can and box lands before the drywall goes up. More on how we plan a room: lighting design.

Great rooms & ceilings
Tall ceilings, no room for error
Beam and barrel ceilings get laid out before anything is cut. Once the timber is up, the holes are permanent — so we plan them with the builder, not after him.

Wine cellars
Display lighting that shows the bottles
Racking and stonework light differently than a room does. The fixtures go where the glass is, and the switching keeps it that simple.

Baths & closets
The rooms people notice every morning
Vanity lighting, fixture placement, and rail lighting that makes a closet usable instead of just bright.

Smart home & controls
Controls the homeowner can actually run
Lutron dimming and smart home control, set up and labeled so the house makes sense to the people living in it. See smart home and lighting control.
