Light N Up - Thanks for hooking up my backyard Kirk! - Lighting Fixtures & Equipment Near Me

Kirk with Light N Up did an incredible job transforming our dimly lit backyard into a warm and bright space illuminated by beautiful string lights! Being from the Inland Empire it's really hard to find quality contractors who can both help design layout and hang bistro lights to bring a backyard vision to life. Light N Up completely exceeded my expectations! Kirk and his team were professional, communicative, and super fast! After an initial site review and quote they knocked everything out in a few hours! The price was very reasonable as well, and they even were able to provide an option to allow the lights to automatically turn on and off on a schedule timer. It was perfect! 10/10 Highly recommend! read more

Made a call to Kirk and received a prompt response. He provided excellent service along the decision making process. Fast responses and was reasonable in the price with few adjustments. Moreover, he worked with my complicated schedule and made last minute availability. He and his colleague arrived and did excellent work. Highly recommend his company. I called three other who provide the same service. One was double the price, the other two came within a few dollars of each other which made me feel better about what I was getting. My decision was made by Kirk's fast responses and attention to detail. Here's a few photos of before and after. read more

Kirk gave me a quote over the phone for installing string lighting (subject to coming out to my house). After coming out and looking over everything, he gave me very reasonable price. I hired him on the spot. We scheduled the installation date and his team came out and within a matter of 2-3 hours, they did a spectacular job. I would definitely recommend them. read more

phenomenal customer service from day installations properties for us both came out great and we're easy to work with. They even came out for an emergency repair graciously . not the kind of service you see today ! highly recommend read more

I sent out something asking for a quote to increase my lighting around my bushes and trees in the front and backyard. They gave me a guesstimate that I was OK with and was going to have them come out and give me a concrete quote. They wanted my address which I gave them and next thing you know I get another quote for something I did not need or ask for at what I would say is a ridiculously high price. Right there and then I decided not to use them. I have no idea about the quality of their work as I did not use them. I just got turned off by the quote for something I did not ask for. read more

I am documenting my experience based on factual information gathered during the estimate process. I am posting this from a separate Yelp account because the contractor has my name and address, and I prefer not to risk any potential retaliation. I am making this report with no emotion and no judgment or opinions, only the facts I experienced. Kirk was responsive and quick to return calls and messages. However, I did not proceed with hiring him and did not pay the requested deposit for several reasons. I was unable to locate any active contractor or electrician license under either his name or his company in the state of California. In comparison, other companies I contacted for the same service provided valid contractor and/or electrician license information. The other companies I obtained quotes from also had as many, if not more, positive reviews on Google and Yelp. I am not naming those companies, as this is not intended to promote them but to document my experience with this one. Kirk quoted between $8 and $10 per foot for bistro lighting installation. Other companies quoted approximately $6 per foot for similar work. Additionally, the design he proposed included a longer run of lighting than what other companies recommended. When I shared his design with others, they indicated the length was unnecessary and would produce excessive lighting. Kirk stated that the bistro lights used were sourced from Costco, which has its own return and exchange policy. However, his workmanship warranty was limited to 30 days. After that period, he indicated a service fee between $150-$200 would apply for any fixes. Other companies I contacted offered longer warranties, including one year and up to two years covering both labor and materials. Other providers also included additional features such as phone-controlled dimmers at no extra cost, which was not part of Kirk's proposal. During the process, Kirk asked about scheduling and requested a deposit before I had confirmed any intent to move forward. Summary of factors: * No verifiable California contractor or electrician license found. * Higher cost per foot compared to other quotes. * Proposed longer lighting layout than other providers recommended. * 30-day warranty with $150-$200 service fee thereafter, compared to longer warranties offered elsewhere. This review reflects only my experience and the information I was able to verify. read more

Excellent and very fast service. I love how my yard turned out. Thank you Kirk and your team. It's incredible that in less than an hour everything was finished and beautiful. I'm 100% recommend Kirk . read more

Light N Up did a wonderful job. I wanted to surprise my husband with a birthday present of lighting up the fence around our backyard. So I searched Yelp to find just the right one. One company wouldn't take the job as too small and was very expensive. Another never returned my call. I'm so glad I found Kirk of Light N Up. I didn't even have to spoil the surprise by having them over to our house for an estimate. Kirk used Google maps to "see" the backyard and give me an estimate which was reasonable. The date was set and Kirk and Julian came out on a very hot day and installed beautiful lights along the backyard fence on the top and bottom. It looks great and my husband was not only surprised, but loves the lights. We are going to have more lights installed by this company. Thank you, Kirk for such excellent work. read more

Kirk was able to stop by the house the same day that I reached out to him to make sure I was comfortable with the layout of the lights and timer placement. He was able to fit my project in the following day. Kirk was professional yet personable. Overall very pleased with the job! read more

Oh wait - the scammer Kurt, who offered to fix his faulty installation, and the lights that almost all went out after 6 months (10 uses) for "only $200" as a "favor" despite selling us hard on 10 year lights and top notch service has also overcharged us on his "favor" - as I just got 2 quotes of $100 to fix his mistakes and replace the lights. Don't use this con artist. read more

Kirk was extremely responsive and helpful! He set up time quickly and provided a quote for the service requested right away. He and his crew showed up on time and worked efficiently. The loop is so sleek and exactly what I was envisioning for replacement. Would definitely hire them again read more

Highly recommend. super quick service. great result. easy to deal with. 5 stars! Needed Christmas lights for house I'm renting in Yorba Linda, so of course used Yelp, and found Light N Up. Because they had great ratings, decided to get a quote and see what happens. Kirk came over the same day within an hour or so -- on a Saturday -- and gave me quote, which was reasonable, so agreed to go with him. Lights were up within a day or two, and they look great. He and one or two other guys worked on getting the lights up, which took a couple hours, and they look very elegant. He provides everything - lights, cords, and light detector. Highly recommend, and will use again! Thanks Kirk!! read more

Kirk and his crew were fantastic. We purchased Govee permanent lighting and needed a professional team to hang the lights. All the work was done so throughly, even going so far as cleaning & drying under the eaves before each light was hung.

We shopped around for the best backyard lighting service and came across Kirks business. It took me a year to finally commit.

He even cut our palm tree branches off where we stabilized the lights. Thank you for the wonderful experience and service! read more

If you want to get scammed into spending money that will eventually be wasted then definitely use Light N Up. My Costco lights lasted 8 years and I've only have one go out-Kirk's didn't even last 8 months and they were supposedly the best quality. This company has scammed us and now wants to charge us $200 more-to come out to the faulty products that they use. I've always wanted string lights in our backyard because it gets extremely dark and so for my birthday, my husband hired Kirk and his team to install lights. After only a month about 5 bulbs went out. Then more and more then one whole string of the seven strings. We now have about 1/5 of the lights that are not working -a whole string of lights that is out plus an additional 40+ bulbs. We spent almost 2k on this service because Kirk said they would last 10 years. I am utterly shocked by how Kirk chose to deal with this by asking for more money. Such a disingenuous business model. We hired Kirk despite his company being one of the pricier companies. We were upsold having light put on our back house and garage and it looked beautiful for about 1 month (conveniently he only offered a one month guarantee) but mention MANY times how they should last 10 years. You are falsely promised quality then gaslit into paying more money to fix what conveniently breaks after the warranty is up. There is no way not to be upset at this. Unacceptable. read more

Kirk is absolutely fantastic. He makes it happen quicker than you can blink! My husband and I attempted to figure out how to light up our large yard but realized quickly, we don't have enough consecutive time in our schedule as of late to complete it. Kirk to the rescue! Came same day, designed a great concept, and within 4 hours, VOILA! check out these pictures thank you so much Kirk!!!!! you definitely lit up our backyard and life! (haha so cheesy) lol read more

After three months, 3 out of the 8 landscape lighting that Kirk installed stopped working. Life was a little crazy at the time, but I contacted him eight months after the initial installation notifying him of the problems we were seeing with the lights, and he said he only guarantees his work for one month, and he would not be able to come fix his work. His reasoning was, "Sometimes Gardners cut the lines", which was not the case in my home, since no Gardner works in the area where the lights were installed. Instead, he said it would cost $150 just for him to come out and look at it. It must be noted that we had paid him $4,500 to work on our house. And with that came 0 accountability for the work that he did just months later. We are quite sad and disappointed with his work. Among all the renovations/updates we have made to our house over the past 15 years, this is the first time we have been let down in this way. Usually, contractors guarantee their work for at least a year, and most usually come out even past that if there is a genuine problem with their work (i.e. not normal wear and tear). If not to fix it, they at least come diagnose the problem free of charge... There is no way I am paying him the $150 to come and fix his broken work. I will have to hire another electrician to come and diagnose/fix his work. Very disappointing. Initially, we were satisfied with his work. He followed our design and was able to install the lights as expected. He was also very responsive and friendly-- we trusted him and his work based on our conversations. But once the lights stopped working, one after another, we started noticing his sloppy work. We noticed that instead of burying the electrical wires under the ground, they were just laying out in the open in many places. The landscape lighting were not aligned to one another. In one place, he used a light with a way higher wattage than required, which was blinding. Unprofessional. Lacking attention to detail at times. When landscape lighting is done correctly, it just looks good. It blends in with the environment and no one notices it-- people just notice that the house looks luxurious. With Kirk's work, that's just missing... Somethings just off. Its sloppy. This has been my family's experience. Take it for what its worth. read more

This is a long overdue write up. I reached out to Kirk to have him draw up some plans for outdoor lighting in our backyard. He was responsive, prompt, professional, and very easy to deal with. He was able to provide several options, and my wife and I felt comfortable. Shortly thereafter, he had a crew out to our house to install everything. Everyone was careful, courteous, and extremely professional. I cannot say enough how beautiful the backyard turned out. We can't wait to enjoy our backyard lighting the summer with our girls. Kirk was responsive, kind, extremely informative, and just great to work with. I would highly recommend him and his services for anyone looking to spice up their backyard or lighting!! read more

Kirk had great ideas for illuminating our small yard. His communication was very timely. He was able to squeeze our install in very quickly. On the day of install, Kirk arrived with his colleague on time and did a masterful and efficient install job. We are so very pleased with the end result. Kirk was even kind enough to put a window screen back in place while he was up on the ladder during the install. Overall, great service and great guy. Would highly recommend! read more

Kirk was very responsive to our request and worked with us to put up the Govee lights that we purchase. His whole were very meticulous in there installation hiding the cords, lights and wiring. The value was fair and the work was honest. My wife and I couldn't be any happier. They cleaned up and even went the extra mile to blow the area and clean up everything. High 5 star review. We received many complements from the neighbors already!!! read more

Kirk came by and gave us a sold estimate for landscape lighting. His price was reasonable. He and his crew were able to start 2 days later and were ON TIME.

Very friendly and professional. Highly recommended. read more

Kirk just finished installing our amazing twinkle lights as well as all our landscaping pathway and tree lights.

Kirk was very responsive and earnest when I contacted him. He responded fast and made great suggestions for completing our backyard lighting project.

We went with Kirk as he was willing to work with our price and was able to come out the same day. He did a great job at keeping his working areas clean and worked efficiently. He removed multiple ceiling fans and replaced them with light fixtures we bought. One of our ceiling fans did not have a light switch and we definitely did not want any holes made in our drywall. Kirk went out of his way to order a remote receiver online and came back the next day to finish installing. Very happy we have no holes in the wall and a new remote switch to turn our light on and off. I would not hesitate to hire Kirk again in the future. read more

When I first reached out, he responded pretty quickly with a quote and the enthusiasm to get started.
