"They are always on time. They perform the job according to what they say they are going to do.  The people and staff are friendly. I can leave my door open and allow them to come in. The same people have worked there for a long long time. So, when I'm opening my sprinkler systems it's usually the same guy year after year after year. It's the same thing with lighting. They are very good. They are very customer oriented. They usually offer you a two hour window if it's not an emergency and they always come out within that two hour window. They are very professional."

"Igor was a fantastic technician! We are so grateful for his expertise, attention to detail, and care with new light fixture installations (and old light fixture removal) in our home. He communicated very well with us and gave us suggestions to improve lighting in the home. Above and beyond on quality of work. It was a pleasure working with him and we would absolutely hire him again. 10/10 recommend! Pictures attached show some of the old light fixtures he removed, and new ones he installed. Thank you, Igor!"

"10x20 backyard patio & 2x7 walkway. Tom was very considerate and attentive when reviewing the project area and provided a reasonable estimate. Tom and his workers were extremely friendly and caring while working. Zero problems during the project and they finished the project quickly (3 days). Very happy with the results so far, if anything changes within the next 3 years, I’ll be sure to update my experience. Awesome experience, great company, and would recommend to others."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

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.

If your lights are shorting out during rain storms or other winter events, you should probably replace them. These shorts indicate electrical issues that could cause serious hazards. Look for outdoor-rated lights with connectors made for rainy conditions to replace them. But if your Christmas lights are new and you want further protection, you can find weatherproof covers to add to the male-end connectors of your Christmas light strings. These can minimize the risk of shorts.

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

Although security lighting may not deter a determined burglar, its presence will make your property that much less enticing to would-be trespassers. When paired with other types of home security systems like alarms and surveillance cameras, strong lights will better help you and the authorities identify thieves in the instance they attempt to break in or succeed at doing so. 

While most general electricians can repair lamps and light fixtures, it is often better to hire a lamp repair specialist. Many electricians prefer larger jobs, such as fixing electrical systems or relocating fixtures, and may not offer lamp repair services due to the small scale of the work. Additionally, some lamps, particularly antique models, require dedicated expertise that a general electrician might not have. A lamp repair specialist will be familiar with various types of fixtures and can provide a more dedicated service. If you have already hired an electrician for a larger project, you can ask them to look at your lamp, but for a standalone repair, a specialist is typically the best option.
