I used the Landscape Lighting Guys for my home years ago. They recently came by to replace a few fixtures and bulbs. They are very professional and have done landscape lighting and Christmas lights for a number of family members. Top notch company.

Our house looks awesome. Matt and Kelsey were so easy to work with and the installer, Jacob did a fantastic job. George came by later to follow-up and to make sure everything was to our liking.
We are very satisfied and would highly recommend them.👍

Landscape Lighting Guys were great to work with! They came up with a great design to brighten up our landscaping and the front of our house. The products they use are made to last and we will use them for all of our outdoor lighting needs in the future.

Matt and his team are the definition of a small local business delivering professional quality with a personal touch that bigger firms don’t . The AI generated picture was a genius idea and they priced everything ala carte so there was no pressure to go big on the spend. Install and follow up was spot on - I would recommend them to anyone.
