"Atlantic Lighting and Irrigation installed both an irrigation system and accent lighting on two trees. From Ian Chaput, the estimator, to the crew, everyone has been professional and timely. Damage was done to my system by an outside party excavating the lot next to me. Atlantic returned and made the necessary repairs. I have already recommended Atlantic Lighting and Irrigation and will continue to do so."

"The Services provided by CT SMITH ELECTRIC, was exceptional, beyond any doubt. From the initial call to the crew that did the job, I was totally impressed. Price was below what I was expecting and the skill level to complete the installation was Superior. Fully explained the scope and went right to work. Courteous, professional and put down protective measures to keep the area clean, then minimized the area that had to be cut in the wall to do the wiring to the 2 new Recessed Lights and New Light Switch with Dimmer Control. I "HIGHLY" Recommend this company for anyone requiring quality customer service and satisfaction."

"David was very nice, he set the appointment and then called to let me know he was on his way. My ceiling was 20ft high so other estimates were $350 & #325 to install. Dave's was $150. Also the light bulbs I had in my old fan were old and needed replacing, but I didn't have anymore. Dave suggested LED bulbs. I bought them the next day and he came back and changed them for me. He is a great guy. I highly recommend him."

"Actually planting took another week, which considering all of the rain delays in their schedule, was very reasonable. The two landscapers could not have been more efficient and did a thorough job. Am very pleased with the quality of plants and service provided by ATD, esp. Tina and the landscapers. A quality organization and highly recommended.

"Mark did an outstanding job on our front and back yard. Due to COVID-19, we changed our wedding plans and decided to get some landscaping done in order to have a small backyard wedding. Initially, our yard was overrun with weeds and dead trees with deep roots. Mark sketched us a design that included all plant options, met with us to discuss the plan, and was very honest with timing and fair with pricing. In a matter of 6 weeks, Mark transformed our yard into the Garden of Eden! He was patient and insightful and had excellent suggestions for planting and placement. He worked efficiently and kept us in the loop at every turn. He incorporated our ideas beautifully and also added nice touches throughout the yard. Mark also designed and built a small pond with a waterfall that quickly became the highlight of the backyard. We chose to get married right next to the pond and all of our virtual guests were in awe. He gave us a great tutorial on how to maintain the pond, plants, and when to expect them to bloom. He even came back a few weeks after the job was completed to answer questions and give additional maintenance tips. Mark has quickly turned into a friend and thanks to his talent and creativity, we are now the talk of the neighborhood. He is a very hard worker. Even in this latest heat wave (90+ degrees), he spent 8 hours each weekday in our yard. Mark is always responsive to texts and calls and we highly recommend him for all of your landscaping and lighting needs."

Lighting questions, answered by experts

The lifespan of a pool light depends on the type, but thankfully, these lights are designed to last a long time before they need to be replaced. LED bulbs last the longest, about 20,000 to 30,000 hours, while incandescent bulbs last the shortest amount of time, about 1,000 to 5,000 hours. Fiber optic pool lights will last around 6,000 hours.

The cost of lamp repair generally ranges from $30 to $150, with an average cost of around $75. Common repairs like rewiring or replacing a switch typically cost around $60 and $80, respectively. The final price depends on factors such as the type of lamp, the complexity of the issue, and the parts required. Keep in mind that repair costs may be higher for ornate or antique lamps. It's a good practice to ask for a price quote from a professional lamp repair service to determine if the investment is worthwhile.

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.

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.

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.
