Custom Kitchen Lighting Solutions in Rhode Island

Lighting can transform the feel and function of a kitchen — and at Toensing Construction, we design and install kitchen lighting in Rhode Island that balances practicality with visual appeal. Whether you're remodeling a coastal cottage or modernizing a historic home, we help you layer the right lighting types to elevate your space.

A well-lit kitchen includes multiple zones: task lighting for food prep, ambient lighting for general visibility, and accent lighting to highlight architectural or design elements. We work with your plans and cabinetry layout to ensure lighting is integrated — not added as an afterthought.

From recessed LEDs and pendant fixtures to under-cabinet lighting and decorative sconces, we help you choose fixtures that match your style and enhance usability. We also coordinate with licensed electricians and lighting designers where needed to ensure safe, code-compliant installation and dimming compatibility.

Our clients across Newport, Bristol, and surrounding towns often come to us with inspiration photos or existing fixtures they love. We take the time to understand your lighting goals and find solutions that are both attractive and effective. We also advise on light temperature, beam spread, switch placement, and control systems — all the details that make the kitchen feel intuitive and comfortable.

In older homes, adding kitchen lighting may involve rewiring or patching ceilings and walls. We handle all coordination and finishing work so that your kitchen feels clean, complete, and well-lit from the first flip of the switch.

If you're planning a remodel or just want to upgrade your kitchen's lighting, we’ll help you choose and install a system that adds warmth, depth, and function to your most-used space.
