"Victor responded right away to repair a leaking pipe in our yard. While on the premises, he took care of a few other minor issues. He was professional, thorough and kind. His fee was fair. I'll be scheduling him to return after the holidays to complete a larger project for us. I highly recommend Victor's company, Grand Oaks Landscaping, Inc for any irrigation or landscaping project!"

"Sarah was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the very beginning I trusted her vision and her design expertise. She had an incredible ability to understand exactly what I wanted - even when I struggled to articulate it myself. Sarah was organized and communicative. She made the entire design process feel seamless and enjoyable. Our project included developing a fresh new color palette and repainting my entire home. She designed a stunning fireplace feature wall and coordinated installation of a gas fireplace. Sarah redesigned my living room with beautiful new furniture, area rug, and accessories that perfectly reflected my style. Additionally, she selected beautiful area rugs, pillows and accessories that tied together other areas of my home. I highly recommend Sarah Kaplan to anyone looking for a talented, thoughtful and highly professional interior designer."

"We hired Paul to completely transform our landscape, and the results are incredible. Our yard started as a dry, neglected space (see before photos), and Paul turned it into a stunning, modern outdoor oasis. He designed everything—from plant selection and layout to gravel, mulch, lighting, pathways, and functional spaces like the fire-pit area and outdoor dining zone. Paul has a great eye for design, communicates clearly, stays on schedule, and truly cares about the final product. The curb appeal and backyard are now unrecognizable in the best way. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend Paul for any landscape project."

"Very responsive, Michael got back to me right away and was able to come out just a few days later. Tom and Jeff were great, they we're prompt, clean and efficient. One of the lights was installed but kept blowing the fuse when turned on, something was wrong with it out of the box, but it was fixed without any further issues. Wonderful! I will definitely use them again."

"We recently had Mega Power Electric Inc install a solar system and panels. The President and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. He even met with us after installation to explain the almost incomprehensible PG&E bill. Although not the least expensive bid, his was competitive and I felt he was as interested in educating me about solar and the various types of panels and inverter systems as he was in selling a system. He demonstrated how the array of panels would meet our energy needs and as opposed to some of the other companies, wasn't selling us more than we needed. We are very satisfied with our solar system and I highly recommended Mega Power Electric Inc."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

Yes, outdoor lights and receptacles should be on a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) for safety. The outdoors is considered a wet location where GFCI protection is generally required. A GFCI enhances safety by automatically tripping and shutting off the circuit if it detects an imbalance, which protects against electrocution and reduces the risk of an electrical fire. While it is the safest approach for all outdoor electrical components, specific requirements can vary depending on the type of light (e.g., pool lights), its location, and local electrical codes. For guidance tailored to your specific situation, it's best to consult a professional electrician.

If half of a string of Christmas lights is out, it is likely because of a single burned-out, loose, or broken bulb within that section. Long strands of lights often contain more than one circuit, so when one bulb fails, it can cause the entire circuit (or half the strand) to go dark. To fix this, inspect the unlit section and test each bulb to ensure it is tight and functioning properly. Replacing the faulty bulb or repairing a damaged shunt will typically solve the problem.

To maintain your outdoor lighting and prevent major issues, you should regularly clean the fixtures, inspect the wiring and connections, and replace worn or burnt-out bulbs promptly. These simple steps ensure consistent operation and extend the life of your lighting system.

It’s fair to be concerned about handling pool lights or wiring in a pool filled with water. But fortunately, pool lights and swimming pools are designed to make it easy and safe to replace the lights without needing to drain the water. Instead, you can turn off the electricity to the pool as a safety precaution, unscrew the pool fixture, pull it up and out to the side of the pool, then change the bulb.

The majority of potential burglars are amateurs looking to make a quick buck after breaking and entering. By installing motion-sensor lights, alarm systems, and security cameras, throughout the home, there’s a good chance you will deter crime on your property.
