"Prompt response, professional and friendly. Came on time for estimate and work scheduled. Cleaned the area after finishing up the project (adding recess lights to the kitchen). We are very satisfied! Thank you Hi5!"
"The work was impeccable. Carl installed the canned light and tied it into my other existing lights and you cant tell that the builders never had a light there. There was a mix up in scheduling after canceling for an emergency, so I dropped the review a star because it seemed like I had been forgotten about entirely. But less than an hour after I called, he was here and done about an hour later. Would hire again."
"I recently had the pleasure of having Ron provide me with truly extraordinary service. I needed 5 light fixtures installed throughout my home, so happy I called on him. Every aspect of my encounter surpassed all expectations, leaving me fully satisfied with the results. His attention to detail is remarkable and was a delight to have in my home. First time hiring, now I will forever be a loyal customer."
"We just love Blingle! We had such a positive experience with Blingle when they did our Christmas lights that we also used them for landscape lighting. The work was itself was excellent and very reasonbly priced, as my accountant husband definitely price shopped. But most importantly, we love that it is a local, family-owned business. The owners truly care about the work being down and the lighting guys themselves are hardworking and kind. We love to beep and wave at the Blingle van when we see it around town! Thanks, Blingle!"
"They did an outstanding job!… I would use them again in a heartbeat. I’ve been wanting to renovate, my old bedroom that was themed to look like a Florida panhandle, nice but it was so dated. They had me reimagine what it might look like if I took it up another notch,and they made it a more visually appealing and modern Caribbean vibe! I’m a guy so I need help on these things lol"

Testing tools, such as Christmas light testers, non-contact proximity electrical testers, and multimeters, all simplify the process of testing Christmas lights. However, without one or more of those tools, testing Christmas lights the old-fashioned way only works sometimes. Without testing tools, the simplest testing method is visual inspection, which may or may not yield positive results.
Modern outdoor light fixtures are waterproof and weather resistant, and, provided they’re installed correctly and by a professional, the fixture and wiring can last for 20 to 30 years or more. The lifespan will depend largely on the quality of the fixture. The lifespan of the bulb will depend on the type of light you install:
CFL bulb (for sustained use): 15,000 hours
Halogen bulb (mostly for security): 2,000 hours
HID bulbs (for security): 12,000 hours
Incandescent bulb: 1,000 hours
LED bulb: 50,000 hours
Your maintenance needs revolve around the type of foundation you choose, as well as how you furnish or decorate it. Patios require little else other than the occasional hose-down, but decks and other wooden structures will require annual power washing and sealing. You may also need to restain the wood every two to three years.
Adding a solid roof rather than building a pergola or leaving the space open will make maintenance much easier. Without a roof, you will need to spend more time sweeping, washing, and covering your furniture to protect it from UV bleaching.
There are a number of reasons that landscape lights burn out, including an incorrectly installed transformer, inconsistent voltage, and burned-out or faulty bulbs. Troubleshoot landscape lighting problems by first determining whether it’s a system-wide problem or an issue with just one light, which will help you get to the bottom of your outdoor lighting woes.
The easiest and best way to power your outdoor lights is with the use of outdoor outlets. Most building codes now require exterior outlets in homes, so you likely already have outdoor outlets available to plug into. However, you can have these outlets installed if your space doesn’t currently include them.
