Could not be any happier with Delta outdoor lighting and our lighting project for our yard. Had a light that I couldn’t figure out what the issue was, they came out and made the repair and was back up very quick.

Misty LaneLocal Guide · 10 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Misty has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
When deciding on installing PHL and landscape lighting, I researched local companies and Delta consistently had great reviews. They made it very easy to schedule my consultation and I was very happy with their design ideas. While it took a little while for all of my fixtures to come in, the installation itself only took a couple of days. I absolutely love how my property looks at night and I’ve received many compliments from friends, neighbors, and the occasional Uber driver.
Whenever an issue has occurred (and with technology this is inevitable), Delta has always been fantastic and solved my problems quickly . I’ve also been very impressed with how friendly they’ve been and I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to add exterior lighting to their home.

Misty, thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We’re thrilled to hear how much you love the way your home looks at night—and compliments from neighbors and even Uber drivers are always a bonus!
Most importantly, thank you for recognizing our commitment to service after the installation. We want every Delta customer to know that we’ll be there if they ever need us.
Thank you again for trusting Delta Outdoor Lighting with your home and for the wonderful recommendation!

Delta Lighting is like having a built-in concierge service. Mark and the team don’t just install lighting — they thoughtfully design with a real sense of transformation in mind. Our backyard was already wonderful, but now it’s inviting, tranquil, and so much more usable for entertaining.
Their pricing is among the best in Austin. After getting three quotes (and no call-backs) from other vendors, Mike and Mark made the entire process — from quote, to install, to post-sale support — completely seamless.
This is our second project with Delta Lighting (permanent soffit lighting this time), and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend.
Response from the owner · 3 months ago
It’s always a pleasure working with you, and we’re thrilled to hear how much you're enjoying the new lighting. Transformative design and making outdoor spaces as functional as they are inviting is exactly what we strive for, so knowing your backyard has become a tranquil retreat for entertaining means the world to us.
We truly appreciate your continued trust in Delta Outdoor Lighting for your home’s projects, as well as your kind words about our team, pricing, and process. Thank you for being such a valued customer and for recommending us!

Delta Outdoor Lighting is the BEST! If you are interested in lighting for security or for curb appeal, Delta is the one to call. Excellent consulting and even better service! Even after installation - a rarity!
Response from the owner · 3 months ago
Mrs. Horne, thank you so much for the incredible review! We take immense pride in designing systems that deliver both beauty and peace of mind, but hearing that you appreciate our post-installation support means the world to us. To us, excellent service doesn't stop just because the installation is complete. Thanks for trusting Delta Outdoor Lighting!
