My ceiling doesn't have an existing light, can you install one?

If there's an existing switch controlling nothing (a switched outlet or a blank), the pro may be able to work from that. A completely new circuit run from the panel is a specialist electrician job. The pro will assess it and tell you exactly what category it falls into.

Can I use any dimmer switch with my LED lights?

Not all dimmers work with all LEDs. The pro will check the dimmer's compatibility list against your bulb brand before installing, an incompatible dimmer can cause flickering, buzzing, or shortened bulb life. If you already bought a dimmer, bring the box so the pro can check it.
