"Mike, Ryan, and team were great. They were complete professionals who arrived on time and completed the installation as stated. Mike worked us on our budget while putting together a lighting presentation of our backyard that resembles and reminds us of our trips to Hawaii and their resorts. We are very pleased with the results and would not only use Mike and his team in the future but would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a magnificent lighting experience. BTW, Mike comes back at night to fine tune the lights and to make sure his customers are fully satisfied."
"They installed 13 screens on our windows (different sizes) and did a marvelous job. When first called, they returned the call immediately and came out when they said they would (they called again prior to coming out to measure and price). Gave me a date for installation and called before the installation date to check to see if it was still a go. Liz is a true professional. Chris did a fantastic job. They were awesome!"
"They sent the color choices and directions promptly. I was a little nervous about doing the measuring and making a pattern without assistance so procrastinated a bit. Once I sent in the order details I had hoped I would hear back with an estimated delivery time, but that didn't happen. However, I was in no hurry, so I didn't even really pay attention to how long it took. Maybe a few weeks. Not sure."
"He arrived on time and easily moved a hanging light fixture in our kitchen a few feet despite the fact that it was on the first floor. Would call Me. Electric again!"
"Curtis is fantastic. I called him early in the day about availability for that day. He mentioned that he and his crew were on their way to another job, but he would call me if the afternoon if it didn't take all day. Within 20 minutes of the call he called back to say the other client cancelled and he could perform the work immediately if I still wanted him to. I absolutely did. He met me at my home (was there when I pulled up). He solved the problem within 5 minutes--realized that several wires were loose. The whole job probably took 1/2 to diagnose and fix. He also tightened some other connectors that was loose and changed a light bulb. He was extremely professional and super nice. "
"We hired Mike Ball's company to clear out a badly overgrown and waterlogged part of our yard, to install a stone patio, improve the drainage, and create flower beds. They did a fantastic job! Mike really knows his stuff, giving us good ideas about design and landscaping. They also worked quickly but thoroughly, were very reliable, cleaned up thoroughly after themselves, and were priced very reasonably. Very happy customers; we'll definitely be back!"

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.
Installing outdoor lighting can increase your home’s value by up to $2,500. The average ROI on landscape lighting is around 50%, but how much your home increases depends on the market, the type of lighting, and whether you have a strong strategy for your landscaping lighting project. LED and solar lighting may offer the highest ROIs.
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.
