Is the lighting in the kitchen is basically replacing fixtures using existing wiring ?

Do they really require a licensed electrician and a permit for it ?

Yes.
I was asking Dave. It may not be required in all jurisdictions. I can replace all the fixtures I want without a license or a permit where I live.
I would assume from Speedy's certainty that he either lives in the same city as lazy, or is somehow intimate with lazy's local laws.
