Lighting Control in Honesdale
Lighting control earns its keep fastest in a house that sits empty part of the year. A house that lights itself at dusk and goes dark at bedtime reads as occupied from the road, and you never drive back up the mountain because someone left the basement on.
Historic borough and in-town housing
Older borough homes bring plaster, deep boxes, original trim, and switch locations chosen by somebody in 1915. The goal is to modernize the control without touching the fabric of the house: dimmers swap in behind existing plates, keypads go where a switch already is rather than where a diagram would prefer, and nothing gets cut that does not have to be. Done carefully, the house looks untouched and behaves like it was wired last year.

Scope
What is included.
From $3,500
A typical whole-home Lutron system in a 3,000 sq ft lake house lands between $8,000 and $20,000 installed, depending on how many loads get dimmed and how many keypads replace them.
- Lutron dimmers and switches on every load worth dimming
- Engraved keypads at entries, primary suite, and the great room
- Scenes tuned on site at dusk, not guessed at from a spec sheet
- Astronomic timeclock so exterior lights track sunset year-round
- Vacancy sensors in baths, laundry, and pantries
- App and voice control, with the wall always working first
Questions
Lighting questions from Honesdale homeowners
Something not covered here? Call (267) 719-3598 and ask.
Do you install lighting control in Honesdale?
Yes. Honesdale is part of our regular service area and we work throughout Wayne County, including Honesdale Borough, Bethany, Indian Orchard. We are based in Pocono Pines, so this is work we do ourselves rather than subcontract.
Do you have to rewire the house?
Almost never. Lutron RA3 and Caséta use the existing wiring — we swap the switches and add a repeater. Rewiring only comes up when a circuit has no neutral in the box, and even then there are workarounds we carry on the truck.
What happens if the internet goes out?
Every keypad and dimmer keeps working. The processor is in the house, not in a data center. You lose remote app access until the connection is back; you do not lose your lights.
