"We are incredibly happy with the service that Pierce and team provided! From the first meeting, Pierce listened to me and worked with our budget. He immediately shared his vision for the area. It's like this: when I go to the hairdresser, I share what I'm thinking, but I like to leave it to the expert about what would look good based on my hair type, age, lifestyle, etc. Pierce was able to describe what he was thinking and way, based on location, sun exposure, size of the area, etc. He walked me through the entire process from start to finish - he even offered to have me come to the nursery to participate in choosing plants. I received frequent email updates about the date of service, with a back-up plan for inclement weather. The service was done in less than one business day. The team checked in with me throughout the day and had me check plant placement and input on lighting. Barbie followed up to make sure we were completely satisfied with the project, and she provided me with detailed watering instructions and follow up for maintenance for upcoming seasons. We interviewed several companies and decided on Pierce - love the small business feel and personalized attention. We are thrilled with our landscaping!"

"Professional, serious, and effective. The exhaust fan/light was installed in our bathroom, with a good ventilation plan to take it out the side of the house. The work was performed well, they cleaned up afterwards very thoroughly, and we're quite happy with the results."

"Jim built handicap ramps, finished existing door molding and mounted electric spot lights on my house. He did this with VERY short notice and his responsiveness, customer service, and quality of work is unsurpassed. Crew was outgoing, friendly, very friendly and instilled trust. Some of his competitors might be cheaper but I know from experience that I dont want the headaches and extra long term costs that come with cutting corners."

"We have a 3 storey house and the team at Brite Idea came out and put up the lights on the house. They had to come out a second day with a longer ladder to finish up but the end job was worth the wait. We did the lights around the bushes which balanced the others beautifully. We agreed to a 3 year contract which suits us since we love having the house lit up for the holidays. I'm sure we'll continue as long as we live here."

"We were impressed with the entire project. The grounds were left clean and uncluttered every day when we arrived home. They even painted some things like some basement windows and a rusty light fixture which we were not expecting, but were pleased they did (I'd suggest being clear about anything you don't want painted!). The detail and edging was better than expected, and we are generally pretty fussy about that. This was the best experience we have had with a contractor to date."

"Gary and team were THE BEST! It was clearly the most expensive project we've ever completed on our home so finding a trustworthy, skilled team that specializes in both decks and hardscape patios was key. Thank you Annie's list for helping us find Gary and team! Pricing: We received three quotes for the job. Gary's was not only the most reasonable (~15k less than the highest quote), but his willingness to work within our budget, flexibility throughout the project, suggestions and recommendations were all on point. Craftsmanship: We are so impressed with the quality and craftsmanship of the deck, hardscape, sitting walls, and custom lighting and fire pit. It surpassed are lofty expectations in every way. If I ever have any future decking or patio hardscape needs I will be hiring Gary and team again. DO IT... you will thank me as I have the previous reviewers for sending me his way."

"We called MC electrical LLC and he came out within two days to give an estimate for our landscape lighting and had an estimate emailed over to us within 24-48 hours after coming out!! Lights look amazing and I'm very impressed with the work performed, not to mention the recommendation that Michael the owner had given us for the new LED fixtures!! Michael and Keith were very awesome as far as laying out all of the walkway lighting as well as the lighting that we have shining on our home as well as the trees!! Very impressive work performed and they kept a very clean workplace throughout the entire job from start to finish!! This company definitely knows there stuff and Michael definitely has the right crew to get the work done the right way in a timely matter!! Thanks again Michael and Keith for all of your hard work!! We will be calling Michael the owner of MC Electrical LLC really soon to get our old house knob-tubing wiring replaced as well as a camera surveillance system installed!! We recommend MC Electrical LLC to everyone!!! You will not be disappointed!!"

Common outdoor lighting issues include faulty or exposed wiring, burnt-out or damaged bulbs, and broken or faulty fixtures. Regular maintenance can help prevent many of these problems.

Yes, professional landscape lighting is typically worth the investment. Installing a lighting system can improve your home’s curb appeal, safety, and security, and it can also deter burglars. It adds value to your home by creating a brightly-lit outdoor space you can use after dark and making the property more appealing to potential buyers. According to the National Association of Realtors, landscape lighting can add up to $2,500 to your home’s value, and on average, this type of home improvement has a 50% return on investment.

The average cost to install outdoor or landscape lighting is around $4,000, with most projects ranging from $2,000 to $6,000. The total cost can vary widely depending on several factors, including the number of fixtures, design complexity, and the type and quality of the lights used, such as wall sconces, pathway lights, or lamp posts. Other factors that influence the price are the square footage of the area being lit, the amount of electrical work needed, any required excavation or trenching, and local permitting costs. For specific types, you might pay around $100 for pathway or string lighting and up to $700 for lamp post lighting.

Professional repairs involve diagnosing issues, replacing components, rewiring, or repositioning fixtures to restore optimal performance.
