FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW DOES THE CONSULTATION PROCESS WORK?

We will meet with you to walk through your property and discuss your needs/wants as well as our suggestions. After this meeting our lighting designer will put together a custom design and proposal for your project. Once you review the proposal we will answer any questions you have and make adjustments as needed. After the proposal is agreed upon we will schedule installation by our certified lighting technicians.

Our average lead time is one to two weeks.

HOW LONG DOES THE INSTALLATION TAKE?

A typical installation will be completed in one day. Larger installations can take multiple days.

WHAT IS THE AVERAGE COST?

Every project is custom to fit the homeowner's needs with the appropriate fixtures and design to achieve a beautiful finished product. Due to these variables it is hard to provide an 'average' cost.

WHAT IS YOUR WARRANTY?
