Chicago Outdoor Lighting Installation

Scott nelson & his team showed up on time. Installed lights. found an issue. called for & part. The president & brought the part, and the (Scott)job was completed quickly with high quality.

We wanted to replace the existing, no longer working landscape lighting and start new. Artistic Outdoor Lighting was the right answer! Mike is outstanding - very professional, responsive, on-time, listens, answered all our questions, and provided great ideas for the illumination design. The nighttime demonstration was invaluable. When the work was completed the only sign of them being at the house was the beautiful lighting. They removed and disposed of the old lighting. I highly recommend this company - you will be amazed at how your landscape and house can look with Artistic Outdoor Lighting's design and installation

Mike from Artistic Outdoor Lighting came out to give us not only an estimate but lighting ideas and even a lighting demonstration! We liked the fact that Mike did not try to "sell" us but let his lighting set up and demonstration speak for itself. He was on time, knowledgeable and friendly. They were able to come out the following week to install our new lights in the front, side and back patio area of our home and they even converted our two coach lights at the end of the driveway to run on the same system. The new lighting looks awesome!

Matt installed a new outdoor security light with it's own switch and a new light fixture outside the back door also with a switch. There were no existing fixtures so both of these required cutting through the soffit and even the brick to run new wiring and conduit. He also replaced an old existing security light as well, changing the incorrect wiring to bring it up to code with conduit and a new switch. He installed a new fluorescent ceiling fixture in the garage, replacing the switch as well. All the other garage light switches and receptacles were also replaced. Matt replaced two outdoor receptacles with new GFCI's, including the in-use covers which are required by code. He re-wired an indoor outlet, removing it from the wall switch that controlled it. Matt has been to our house a number of times, helping us through the renovation of our house which we purchased in October of 2013, first with replacing the outdated and inadequate electrical panel, installing ceiling fans, new lighting, new circuits, all new switches and receptacles, running conduit in the basement for various things and other miscellaneous projects to numerous to remember. We will call Matt again when we are ready for more outdoor lighting after we fix up our patio area and also for more basement wiring at some point. From the beginning we have been impressed with Matt's knowledge and professionalism. We've appreciated his suggestions and opinions on various things that we were unsure about. He is friendly, patient, and fair in his pricing. Don't hesitate to call him.

Steve Stevenson was our handyman. He has a great work ethic & attitude including creatively troubleshooting why an outdoor light wasn't working (wire snapped) & cut/replace the wire so we didn't have to order a new light. He was great! Thank you for sending him to our home. We will definitely request him in the future.

My company has used Exel for all of the electrical work for our properties since discovering Omar on Angie's List. His prices are competitive, his work is neat, orderly and to code. We intend to continue our relationship with his company for the foreseeable future.

One 9/24/17 I had them install outdoor lighting in a 30' x 30' fenced-in dog exercise area. They ran conduit for the wiring and installed the flood-light fixtures I wanted, along with installing 2 more coach lights on the house and outdoor switches to control everything. Scott Nelson was terrific to work with. He was prompt in getting back to my initial query, came out very soon to discuss the project and give me a detailed proposal. We scheduled the project for 2 months later to take advantage of my slow period. Scott is an excellent communicator and answered all my emails and follow-ups promptly. Two of his guys, Ben & Eric, came out to do the work. Scott met with them at my house that morning to be sure they understood the job and to discuss some minor changes I wanted. They showed up when they said they would and everything about the work day proved them to be very professional, skilled, friendly, and easy to work with. They also did a great job cleaning up after the project. -- other than the new lights, you'd never have known they'd set foot on the place. The job they did for me was exceptionally well done. I could not be happier with the completed job and with the entire process of working with them, start to finish. I would highly recommend them to neighbors, friends and family. Added note 7/3/18: Doing business with Scott Nelson Electric has turned out to the the nicest experience I’ve ever had with ANY service company. When they installed permanent outdoor lighting in my gravel yard last September I could not have been happier with how it turned out. I use it every night of the year, several times each night and it makes the area I work in with the dogs safe and well-lit. When I discovered one of the lengths of conduit had a small split in the seam due to a manufacturing defect, I contacted them. The split was letting rain water into the conduit. I so appreciate that they were willing to come out and fix the problem right away, no charge. I am very grateful that they stood behind their work and were so responsive. These days we hear too many complaints about things and when something goes right, no one says a word. Well, things went right today and I am very happy that I chose to go with such a reputable and professional company. Thank you so much! I will do whatever I can to spread the good word.

It was great. We had a problem with our outdoor lighting. The electrician replaced a few of the circuits and lines.

Mike provided us with a creative design in order to add outside lighting for our house. The quote was fair value and the lighting fixtures were high quality. The installers were prompt, professional and did a great job. My wife and I would highly recommend using the company.

It went wonderfully. We couldnt be happier. Mike and his team were professional, on time and best of all the lights look beautiful.

Mike was the best. He knew exactly what I wanted. He came out at night to lay out the entire lighting system so I knew what to expect, which was by far and beyond what any of his competitors offered. Look no further Mike is the man!!!! You will no be disappointed!

Got a response within minutes of requesting a quote and excellent service the same day! Steve was friendly and professional, did a great work replacing garage and porch lights for a reasonable price. Very happy with the service and highly recommend this company!

Mike was excellent to work with for our landscape lighting. All appointments were as scheduled and the lighting looks beautiful! I was very impressed with Mike's technology, pricing, follow up and installation. Would recommend Artistic Outdoor Lighting very highly.

Mike and his staff did an excellent job lighting the exterior of home. The whole process started with Mike coming out at night for the initial consultation. The timing was important because he set up lights around the front of our home to show us what he could do for us. It was such an easy decision after that because the demo was so nice to see. The install went smoothly and we even called a week or so before and asked about adding (10) lights to do the back patio and gardens. Mike said no problem, gave me the added cost, installed both front and back on the originally scheduled date and never exceeded his quote! The lights are tasteful and you couldn't tell anyone had been in the yard burring lines. They were even cognizant of how to weave the cables throughout our existing ground cover so as to not kill off sections. Professional! Our neighbors mentioned the very next day how much they liked the lighting display. It made us feel good to help enhance the overall look for the neighborhood while adding to our enjoyment and sense of security at the same time. We'll definitely have them back to further light the back yard as we finish some of the outstanding projects on our list. I would highly recommend Artistic Outdoor Lighting to anyone!

Such a good experience! Responsive, creative. We love our pathway and garden lights. We've been looking forward to this for several years, and we are delighted with the results. If you're looking for a company that meets its deadlines, responds immediately to any questions, and does excellent work, then Premier Lighting is your best choice!
