These guys are the best. Not only with service, but with their thorough recommendations and follow up. This is my second round of using this company and they did not waiver in what they have to offer on either visit. I would recommend them to consult, install, maintenance, or design. Thank you OLP of Austin!!

OLP took care of our front and backyard lighting many years ago. We have continued to use them for maintenance, additions and some revisions over time. They have always been responsive, friendly, and easy to work with.
Chris Keaton has been our primary tech for many years, and he has done a great job for us.
They are a great company to work with.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review and recommendation! We’re thrilled to hear that you’re still enjoying the landscape lighting system we designed for you and that our follow-up service has been prompt and fairly priced. We truly appreciate your trust and are grateful for the opportunity to work with you!
Chris came and repositioned a light that was attached to a tree that was damaged in the ice storm. He did a great job getting the light secure in a different tree. Very professional.

In this day and age, it seems that businesses are overwhelmed or just not up to doing anything more than the J O B. It is not often you find a company who takes pride in their work and whose employees are not overworked and just doing the task at hand. OLP is a far cry from this theme. It was quite obvious from the very beginning, they care a great deal about their product, workmanship and finishing. I had done a few searches online and OLP stood out.
We choose to engage them for a consult and did so via their website. We heard back promptly and booked a date for a visit. Josh arrived on time, I mean by the minute. No, your technician will be here between 9am and noon....ish, as we have become used to. Or, they just don't show up like AT&T. ahem. Josh is a friendly, burly, engaging gentleman. Extremely knowledgeable of his craft. He listened. He made suggestions and took the time to explain the process, the equipment we were getting installed and left us a quote. We choose to have driveway and pathway lighting as well as a full wrap of the house with low energy LED lights made by Bonzai lighting. These are app controlled. I would imagine that Josh can build out a system at all budget levels and if not, I would imagine he could work within your budget. Our installation was on the high end of cost for reference. We have a large home of 3100 sq ft.
HOA's can be a pain. I had to file an Architecture review, even tho one or two other homes in our small neighborhood has home lighting. Josh assured me, we would be fine and even offered to work directly with our HOA if needed. He did provide me with a HOA packet to provide the committee. With that help when submitting the request, we got approved within 48hrs. I'm sure the brochure I was provided made this happen quickly.
Day of installation, the OLP crew arrived, actually a little early and exactly to the minute they said they would be here. We had a little knock on the door and the work began. I was actually surprised to see Josh was involved throughout the 2 day install. Chris and his partner, (whose name I didn't get) were always respectful of our property, polite when they needed access anything and cleaned up after themselves. There was a palpable air of pride and execution of the job ahead. They cared about what they were working on and not just slapping something together. The crew wanted their work to reflect their skill set. It wasn't just their J O B, it was their craft.
OLP finished up the install and Josh spent some time with us helping us download the app for the Bonzai app and SmartLife app for the Driveway/Pathway lighting. Ran us through the options on the app and sent us a very helpful App Training link to review and learn. We settled up, Josh reminded us of the warranty and to please call/text with any questions whatsoever. The Bonzai lighting is very comprehensive, a myriad of customizations and themes as well as options, such has having the lights over our master bedroom go off at a certain time so as not to keep the wifey awake at night. She is very light sensitive at night and we are having black out blinds being installed which will help the small light spill in the bedroom. Every colour of the rainbow is there, with dozens of preset themes you can pick. It's a little overwhelming, but it's a learning curve.
It's Labor day weekend and they finished up yesterday. We had chosen a simple setting for coming on at dusk and turning off at dawn. We noticed nothing came on, so reluctantly we texted Josh at 8.15pm, letting him know and we could address the issue after the holiday. He text back right away and since we choose to name him as an administrator, he was able to get them on, owned up that he inadvertently needed to reset the automation, which he did right away. We will be visiting again after the holiday, since I messed around with one of the themes and now our home looks like a firework show. LOL.. It's ok, we will get used to the app.
OLP should definitely get a shot at your project. Give them a call for a bid!
