In the past 2 weeks my bathroom lights flicker at times, but not every time I turn them on. Not associated with using any appliances. I’ve made sure they’re not loose. I’ve tried to pinpoint which bulb ( of 4) it could be but I can’t. Does anyone know of a local, reasonable electrician who could check this out for me as I suspect I shouldn’t ignore this. Thank you.

Some other people have reported switch problems, and a simple change out of the switch with a new one solved the problem. Since you have 4 lights, it could very easily be a loose bulb or a failing socket the bulb is screwed into. First check that all bulbs are tight, then try unscrewing one bulb at a time and see if you still get flickering. If so I would definitely look into replacing the switch. A local handyman can do this for you if you do not want to do this. If you find it is a single bulb the socket MAY be replaceable depending on the design of the holder, in this case it might be better to just replace the entire fixture.

I had the same problem with the 4 LED bulbs over the mirror. I replaced all 4 as they are just about 4 years old and problem was solved, earlier I had the same issue with the bulbs over our kitchen table, changed the bulbs and again problem solved. If you have a dimmer be sure to use LED bulbs that can be dimmed.
