We had outdoor lighting installed about 5 years ago and recently called for service when two light were out. Service was nearly immediate, problem solved with two bad drivers. I highly recommend Dayloom for installation and service. 5 Stars! read more

DayLoom ( previously Enlightened) is a 5 Star outdoor lighting company that I have had the pleasure of working with for 10 years! Not only are their products top of the line ... their Customer Service is beyond amazing! I am truly impressed and grateful for their support . I LOVE THE WAY IT MAKES MY HOME A CASTLE. read more

A returning customer, I would trust Enlightened with all our landscape needs. Enlightened partnered with us to highlight our homes with outside lights. The first time held up the entire time we owned the home without any craziness. Lights worked beautifully and as expected. The reason I used "partnered" is due to the family feel you get when working with the team. They listen to your needs and using their expertise, design a package that works for your home and wallet. During our most recent install, we understood the timing would be far in the future (due to the nature of the entire world...hello Covid). Unexpectedly they called us weeks before our planned day to let us know they would get us done! That was an awesome surprise. We appreciated their professionalism and timely service. If you have ANY lights needed for your space, do not hesitate to give them a call. The warranty is amazing, they are responsive, and the pricing is super fair. Clearly we are fans and I would only hope your experience can resemble ours!! read more

I just had my uplighting installed for my home and the Dayloom "Dream Team" did the damn thing! Brice, Carlos, and Danny were amazing! They were punctual, thorough, and explained what and why they were doing what they did. Even after completion and doing the walk around review with me, something looked off. They took the time to retrace the wires and found a bad connector. They dug up that section, applied a new connector, reburied the wire, and left everything looking finely manicured as if they hadn't been here at all. There attention to detail and professionalism was impeccable. This is a microcosm of my entire Dayloom experience! I highly recommend this company!!! read more

Enlightened Lighting did an amazing job installing our landscape lighting in Ashburn! I wanted to install them 2 years ago and finally did this Spring and wish I had done it sooner! They make our yard look beautiful at night and really change the way our overall house/yard looks! I highly recommend this company! They are all so professional and knowledgeable on where to place the lights. They are also very responsive if you have questions or need a warranty issue addressed. Call them today! You won't be disappointed!! read more

Enlightened did a great job replacing and realigning lights we already had. They gave us a great deal as returning customers. Prompt, efficient, quick. read more

We've reduced mountains of junk mail by asking companies to take us off of their mailing lists. It's a waste of trees/paper. Every company/organization has responded pleasantly and removed us - except Enlightened Lights. Emails were either ignored, or responses - by the same employee negatively mentioned in another review - were curt. She even said it's not up to them - it's the marketing company they use! Finally I got a curt response that they've already contacted the company and I should contact that company myself. 1) Why wouldn't you have given me that info earlier? But wait, 2) It doesn't bother you that your requests are ignored by the company you pay for marketing? And 3) She ignored my repeated question if she'd passed this on to the owner or manager. Maybe most people wouldn't care, but given the surly response to such a simple request, I'd never take a chance on an actual job with them. read more

LIGHT up your life with the best lighting provider in the DMV. Enlightened Lighting uses the highest quality products; designs a lighting plan geared to your unique needs. Designing with Andy was a breeze. Andy's design highlights our home's best features. Scheduling with Karen was hassle free. Installation team did an outstanding job. Lighting programmed for auto on/off so it's just too easy! Guaranteed for 5 years. Highly recommend Enlightened Lighting. read more

I want to give them a higher rating because they seem to do good work - my property lighting (which was installed by them but with the homeowner prior to to me) is nice; however, maintaining it thru them has been annoying because Customer Service is awful. The first tech that came out to my house a couple years ago when I first starting dealing them was nice and knowledgeable; however, the techs I've dealt with since then have been nice enough but not very knowledgeable or thorough. A tech named Tyler (who I've been informed is no longer with their company) lied to me during a daytime service call and told me he checked all the lights on my property make certain all were working, but that same night I noticed one of the lights in front of my house was still out -- no wonder his service call was done so quickly. My major gripe with this company is their customer service. I've been dealing with Karen on their end and she doesn't even use the word "Thank You" in her emails - that should tell you everything you need to know; the tone of her email is sort of, "Why are you even bothering me?" Unhelpful. She never responds to my questions directly or appropriately, always tells me they're booked solid and they'll try to get me in, and is just overall rudely abrupt in our written interactions. To make it worse, I'm the one who constantly has to followup with her - even after they made a service call to my house! To say that Karen would benefit from a Customer Service 101 course would be an understatement. They're pricey so, I'd rather take my hard-earned money elsewhere. read more

We had a great experience with Enlightened Lights. Andy was very good to work with and although they were a bit more pricey than other quotes, the quality of their lights seems to justify the extra cost. They were efficient and stand behind their work. Karen was very nice to work with and very professional over the phone and via email. No complaints here. We have received many compliments from friends and neighbors on how nice the lighting is especially in a neighborhood that doesn't have street lights so it's typically very dark. We are very happy customers! read more

Well I recently had a company Christmas party at my home, prior to the party my home was extremely dark and all we had were flood lights to light the grounds for guests. I needed something that would look good and get done fast. I am extremely pleased with the lights for my home, Enlightened came out the day of the party and had everything looking beautiful for our 50 guests. I'm so glad we went ahead and did the lights now instead of waiting for our landscaping project that I'm not sure I will ever get to. What's nice about this company is they will come out and do a design demonstration for you so you can see what the project will look like. If your considering lights on you home defiantly call them and set up a consultation. read more

I conducted a three company competition for converting my 15 year-old outdoor lighting system into an LED system. After a month of evaluation of the proposals I concluded that Enlightened Lighting offered the "Best Value" for my project. Owner Patrick and Installer Andy were closely involved in the project from end-to-end. I found them to be engaging, informing, innovative on a magnitude far beyond their project competitors. Their overall professionalism was exemplary. Upon completion of the project, I anticipate my townhome neighbors will be contacting them for their outdoor lighting aspirations. I am adding Enlightened Lighting to my VERY small contact list of "Best-of-Class" contractors---and will continue to do business with this fine company for all my outdoor lighting needs. read more

If you want elegant, understated and envied home lighting then you must trust Enlightened Lights. We learned of them through another satisfied client a couple years ago and then had them install our outdoor home lighting. WOW is all we can say. We loved their work so much we went ahead and hired them for our outdoor Christmas lights as well. The team is professional, responsive and a pleasure to work with. Can't say enough about them, they are that good. read more

Several years ago I sought an estimate from them and while nice enough, they were simply far too expensive. When I recently came back asking for any new ideas and a new estimate, they made it very clear they were upset that I hadn't chosen them prior and noted a $125 fee, despite a website claim of free consultations. When I explained the situation, all this time later, admin Karen was still less than helpful/responsive. Was hoping to give EL'LLC a 2nd try but instead give them 2 stars. read more

Great customer service! They are very responsive and stand by their work. I'm happy I chose them and would be happy to work with them again for future needs. 5 stars! read more

This is a great company, and we like the lights installed a couple of years ago, but this review is aimed at service and follow-up. We had another contractor damage one of our driveway lights, and needed a service call. They came promptly, and fixed the light that was damaged. Then, at no charge, they realigned some, re-dug others, and adjusted every single light on our driveway. That work took longer than the one fix they came to address. I didn't even know that had been done until a few days later. What a class act! read more

From start to finish an absolutely professional and wonderful experience from everyone at Enlightened Lighting. We are so enjoying our lighting scheme. read more

Great experience. The installers were professional, and the final product was exactly as described and the way we wanted. Great job.

This is a fantastic company not just for their lighting solutions but for their human kindness as well! 3-4 years ago they designed and installed amazing landscape lighting for our backyard. Perfect design that we still love and extremely professional workmanship. They use their own crafted bronze lighting fixtures vs. the cheap plastic versions many companies use so these lights are as good today as they were as new. And today, they just dropped off 50 face masks for us to use to help keep us and others healthy during covid-19!! Such kindness and generosity are so rare....this truly is an amazing business. read more

HANDS DOWN, these guys are the best lighting installers in the DMV! Enlightened Lighting knows their craft and they do it extremely well. They are courteous, responsive, efficient and just great at what they do. I could not be happier with my experience and, of course, the end results. Thanks to Andy, Karen, and the crew for the STUNNING transformation! read more

Patrick and his partner have set a high bar for the rest of the industry to follow. They've designed their products to the highest standards and also to address a fatal flaw in other's designs. Our original landscape contractor had used Alliance brass fixtures and LED bulbs for our landscape lights, and over the course of the several years that we kept the Alliance lights, the LED bulbs burned out quite frequently - although the Alliance distributor originally provided several boxes of LED bulbs, eventually, we had to buy them at $30 per bulb. With 10-15 LED bulbs burning out each month, you can do the math - but the problem was also the time, energy and annoyance of replacing burned out LEDs every week - original contractor told us the LED bulbs were supposed to last a long time. During one phone call, the disributor even told me that we had the highest rate of bulb burnout in the country, as if it were somehow our fault. The original contractor and the Alliance mid-Atlantic distributor thought it was incorrect voltage, but after having the mid-Atlantic distributor as well as electricians after electricians come out to inspect the wires, voltage and transformers, we concluded that something else was wrong - but no one knew what was wrong. We then received a brochure from EL in the mail, and with a "what the heck," we contacted EL and scheduled an appointment. Patrick came out and explained and showed us that the bulbs in the Alliance fixtures were burning out due to heat buildup, i.e., faulty heat management due to improper heat sink. He then showed us their design and product, and we agreed to replace all of our landscape fixtures (over 70 light fixtures) with EL's products. Since then, we have not had any issues with the LED bulbs burning out. Moreover, EL's brass is of much higher quality, and every year, EL's service techs (great guys) come out to maintain, straighten and polish the brass (the Alliance brass fixtures looked good the first year, but after about a year, their finish quickly degraded - they became rather eyesores). We junked the original Alliance fixtures as there was no need for what we considered inferior products - they were recycled by EL. If you're looking for outdoor lighting, EL is the way to go. Wish we had done that from the beginning. Take away: be wary of contractors who sell you inferior products/service at inflated prices and always seek experts for quality in both product and service. Finally, Karen (customer service at EL) is wonderful - she is very personable, prompt and professional and will address any issues you are having in a cheerful and efficient manner. What more could you ask for? read more

We have been pleased with our dealings with Enlightened Lights from "the get-go." We appreciated their honest bidding process. There was no attempt to up-sell or add any hidden fees. The install was efficient and neat. They returned promptly to make some minor adjustments in lighting displays and intensity. More recently, following a power surge that affected our timer, an Enlightened team reset the device for us. We look forward to returning to the security the lighting system provides for us. read more

I looked at using 3 companies for my outdoor lighting design, and Enlightened Lighting was the best. Their design was made sense, and was beautiful, and affordable. Andy, the person I worked with, was knowledgeable, professional, and very nice. The whole process was easy - and they worked within my budget, while providing affordable solutions to any of my questions. I loved the flexibility - if I had a question or wanted a change, Andy responded immediately. I really enjoyed working with Enlightened, and I can't say enough good stuff about them! read more

Great company. Really took pride in their work and responsibility for getting things done well.

This service is incredible! I just purchased a new home and wanted exterior lights to showcase my new home for a house warming/40th Birthday party. I had over 200 people coming and wanted the house to stand out. The Enlightened lights crew worked around the clock to ensure my lights were installed prior to my party with only a few days notice right during the holidays. The staff is extremely nice and they did an incredible job. My house looks like a millionaire's mansion! It's amazing the difference the lighting makes. The demo is incredible too, they are able to show you what it will look like in twenty minutes and the final product just blew me away. If you want to transform your home into the finest home on the street, consider using Enlightened Lights. I am a very satisfied customer!!! Sincerely, Heather Dieguez. read more

Upgraded my landscape lights and the results are amazing...very responsive company, easy to do business with.

Awesome! Loved the demo. Went with them for lighting needs for the front of our house. Extremely professional. The end result is great. Have gotten a lot of compliments from my neighbors. Would definitely recommend to family and friends. read more

Outstanding. Great company to work with. They really know what they're doing when it comes to exterior lighting. And the lighting has really transformed the look of the front of our house. Really beautiful. read more

We first sought out landscape lighting because we live on a dead end street lit only by porch lights and it provided some practical problems, such as where exactly is our driveway. Enlightened Lighting sent out a designer who showed us that we could solve our practical problems and make our home look even more beautiful. Now we have the prettiest house and garden at night on the street that is always a joy to come home to. All of our neighbors and friends compliment how great the house looks, especially the cherry trees during blossom season! Patrick and team were easy to work with, responsive to our needs and concerns, and offered a beautiful product at a reasonable price. We are looking forward to working with them again to light up our new deck and backyard oasis! read more

Great customer service and delivered everything they promised. The lightening package came out way better then expected!! Would highly recommend them. read more

Patrick and his team are terrific! We loved the demo and the final product is even better. Prices are very reasonable. Dramatic improvement in the overall look of our house. We are very happy. Professional company with high integrity. Highly recommend. We will definitely use them again in the future for additional outdoor lighting. read more

Just a great experience from beginning to end. The designer who came out had great ideas and we ended up with a spectacular group of lights that we love. We will be getting more when we finish our backyard. And when we had a had a problem with the timer about a month after Installation they were able to fix it within a few days with minimal hassle for us. We also loved that they stand behind their work and offer a five year warranty, something no other company does as far as I can tell. read more

After a very bumpy first start over a year ago, and over a year of looking at different companies I finally had a great experience with Enlightened. I happened to run into Andy servicing a neighbors house and we got to talking about my bumpy experience and overall vision for my property. Not only did he make me feel like that experience was not the norm, he went above and beyond on pricing, customer service, and install. I really felt like we got 5 star treatment from the team. My property looks amazing and I could not be happier. If you are looking for experts and people who care about their product and reputation look no further than Enlightened and ask for Andy. read more

Got a flyer in the mail from them and I called them about putting up some outside lights. They came over, took pictures and promised to give us a quote within a week. More than a month later I write this still waiting for our quote. Sent up a follow up email and even called them - no response. read more

Great Company, great staff, great products and service, I am planning to do more business with them very soon, H Karlsson, Vienna VA.
