What Dallas light fixture installation jobs cost
These six jobs ran from $175 to $2,100. The average was $597, well above the $323 median, because a few larger jobs pull it up.
| Work included | Job price |
|---|---|
| Two supplied closet lights replaced | $175 |
| Three supplied island lights and a dining pendant replaced | $300 |
| Supplied ceiling fan fitted with a new support brace | $309 |
| Two pendant fixtures, $816 less a $480 credit from an earlier project | $336 |
| Hallway light replaced | $361.20 |
| Indoor LED replacements plus outdoor light work | $2,100 |
Why did one Dallas ceiling fan cost more than two lights?
In Dallas, swapping two supplied closet lights cost $175. Fitting one supplied ceiling fan cost $309, and that job also needed a new fan-rated support brace.
The closet lights went into the same spots as the old ones. The customer supplied both lights and their hardware. The fan came from the customer too, and the $309 included the brace kit. A fan needs a sound place to mount, as well as room to fit.
The $361.20 hallway job replaced a light that hung low enough to get in the way of a door. The new fixture sits closer to the ceiling. The record doesn’t list a separate price for that fixture.
When you ask about ceiling fan installation, send a clear photo of the current mounting point.
What did the $2,100 Dallas lighting job include?
The $2,100 Dallas job covered 22 recessed LED disks indoors plus outdoor wall-light installation, with materials. It was one larger update, so it doesn’t show the price of one light.
Five of the six Dallas jobs cost less than $500. This was the only one over $1,000. Don’t divide its total by the number of lights. The same price also paid for the outdoor work and the materials.

Why does the Dallas pendant job show $336, not $816?
The Dallas pendant job came to $816 in work and supplies for two fixtures. A $480 credit for an overpayment on an earlier project brought the recorded total down to $336.
Use $816 when you compare that job with a new quote. The job list above shows $336 because that is the recorded total.

Questions about Dallas light fixture installation prices
About these prices
This guide uses six completed jobs from Smart Fix job and invoice records, pulled on October 20, 2026. Each price is the full job total from its invoices, including parts and tax we charged, after discounts and credits. A visit with several tasks counts as one job. We left out assessment-only visits and any job whose total did not match its invoices.
The median is the middle price once all six are sorted, so one large project cannot pull it up the way it pulls up the average. Dates use the day work started. Cities follow the job address. Customer details stay private. These are past prices for real jobs, not a quote.
